Wow! Quite an experience especially in the lab. It took me a while to learn the navigation but then it all came together. You really have to persist to get an understanding of where everything is and how it is all put together. It was like a 1000 piece puzzle or a similar analogy. This is because it was all new ground. Even with all the graphics, colors and displays which help, it also impacts the brain as you move from one concept to the next. Quite a challenge. I recommend my class-mates take the time to try to understand the set up.

Thanks to IBM, Coursera for offering this course. Special thanks to the instructors and contributors. The course content was easy to understand, well-structured, covered both conceptual and practical applications. The instructors were knowledgeable and their delivery was very enjoyable. The quizzes, assignments offered valuable insights and helped reinforce the lessons. Overall, the course significantly broadened my knowledge, enhanced my skills, and making it a worthwhile investment for my personal and professional development.

This course has been an incredible learning experience! The content was well-structured and engaging, making complex topics in AI and chatbots accessible and understandable. The hands-on labs were particularly helpful, providing practical experience and reinforcing theoretical concepts. I appreciated the clear instructions and the opportunity to interact with real-world applications of AI. Overall, this course has significantly expanded my knowledge and skills in the field. Highly recommend it to anyone interested in AI.

I like the course as an introduction for non specialists like myself. However, I wanted to practice using my skills with the plugins at the end of the course to build chatbots. This is very important for me as it is one of the services I want to be able to provide customers. But the plugins were locked for days and even though we asked for assistance, they were not opened for practice. I would like them to be opened and for me to be invited to practice with them. Completion would also give me an HONORS certificate.

This is a great course for a beginner like me in the field of Computer Science and having a passion to learn about Artificial Intelligence. The course is really amazing, informative and there are many new things to explore. Although it covers just the basics but it puts up the main areas of the topic and a bit elaboration on it. The questions put up by Sir Rav Ahuja cleared many myths on AI. I would love to explore more courses like this by IBM. Thank you.

Absolutely fanstastic overview over AI, what is it, the different views of the experts, which status are we actually, what can or will the future bring. good explained for non-techies:-) And I was absolutely stunned about Tanmays presence as a speaker. It is said, that every human is unique and therefore can bring a new view to the world, and I think that Tanmay is a perfect example for that. I am looking forward to hear from him in the future:-)

Topics in this module were very clear, easy to understand what makes it great to follow up.

Quick observation, the last exercise (Week 4) had a bad link to Discovery Watson instead of Visual Recognition and I could not go through the IBM account to install the VR model. I made my assignment based on the Discovery Watson (which I learnt a lot).

I would like to have access later to this VR exercise in order to explore the app.

Thank you!

Good course. The basis of artificial intelligence, of its use and its future are described. It gave me a bigger picture of what I was imagining that AI is. The only part I didn't like about this course was the 15 years old boy giving you a life experience. I understand that he is young and smart but honestly you can see that he doesn't have that much experience as the other PhD speakers. Overall, it was a nice experience.

As someone who knew essentially nothing about AI other than what was shown on TV and movies this course was definitely eye opening and has mad me curious to learn more. I work in e-com and while we have some tools that utilize AI I realize there is so much more that can be done and how despite what people may believe there is space for humans to contribute their knowledge and expertise to move things into the future.

This course is great to get a brief introduction to AI and its capabilities. You learn different stories about how AI has improved certain industries and get lots of answers to big questions around AI such as: AI replacing jobs, future capabilities of AI and plenty more. Definitely recommend this course to anyone who wishes to get familiar with it and it's a great starting point for other courses you may wish to take

Being new to the field of AI. This course provided a solid start of the concepts needed to begin delving into this space. I am excited to be a part of this AI journey and preparing myself for this inevitable technology that will impact our existence in many positive ways. I will definitely continue to do the other courses in the specialization. Thanks Coursera and IBM for making this training available.

Very well conducted. It certainly clarifies all the basics of AI as will be very useful in taking decisions for business, as in my case. I particularly appreciate opportunity provided to work on IMB Watson and option to do so in a deeper way if necessary. However, will appreciate if similar services provided by others could also be identified - just for reference and knowledge.

Congratulations and many thanks.

I'm a newbie. I have keen desire to know what AI works. After completing the course I have got my answer. In fact now I can say confidently how it works as well. Thanks IBM Developer Network and Rav Ahuja for giving me the access to the course. And, specially thanks for providing me the opportunity to complete the course with you kind financial aid. I wish one day you will be on the first on pioneer list.

This course runs in basic level to medium at some point. It first introduces you to what is AI then what are its benefits and then its key terms. This is a good course who wants to know get introduced to AI.

It also includes hands on session with the help of Watson. These are some of good implementation and are very exciting.

And in between interviews of professional motivate us to be one like them.

This was an excellent introductory course! Very insightful and informative without being overwhelmingly complicated or technical. Finishing this course has energized me to continue to follow through on the next ones and complete the Data Science specialization. Thank you to the teachers, assistants, technical team, and the Coursera staff for this amazing learning opportunity. You all rock!!

A big thank you to IBM and Mr. Rav Ahuja. Even as a Computer Science student, who has had a keen interest in AI since 2017, there was so much I got to learn from here. The course content is streamlined, smoothly transitioned, and very well communicated. It does, indeed teach you everything from the basics and clears out so many concepts that you didn't even know you had wrong. Wonderful!

Perhaps one of the best courses by IBM which is going to introduce you to the field of AI,Machine Learning and Deep Learning and also helps a person in order to get initial knowledge about the various terminologies in the field. The course was also consisting of a number of use-cases and various other examples of IBM Watson which provided you with one of the best examples for this field.

Introduction to Artificial Intelligence (AI) by IBM offers a robust foundation on AI concepts, grounded by the insights of IBM's Watson. The course seamlessly bridges theoretical knowledge with practical applications, making AI concepts both accessible and tangible.

This was a great introductory course for Artificial Intelligence. After completing this course you will have an idea of whether or not this is something you wish to pursue further. The expert speakers included in these lessons give you realistic expectations as to what you should do to prepare to work with AI and even include some pointers if you are seeking employment in this field.

Really enjoyed the training as I was passionate about AI and this course provided just the right stuff that I needed to get started. My vision about AI and its working has been completely changed after what I have learned in this course. This course has increased my passion to learn and indulge more in AI and its development thereby contributing to its usage in my domain.

I have not enjoyed learning this much since I was at school and that was a very very long time ago. The course structure is brilliant, clear, helpful and of course educational. This is a fantastic way to learn more about the industry that will chnage the course of how human function in this world.

Absolutely, brilliant and I am look forward to completing all the levels.
