Adult Fall 2025

AI in Action: Models, Agents, and Real Use Cases

Step into the world of artificial intelligence and discover what’s really behind today’s smart technologies. In this engaging, beginner-friendly course, you’ll learn about the different types of AI—from narrow AI (like Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant) to generative AI (such as ChatGPT, DALLE, and Gemini), and even emerging general AI systems. We'll explore how machine learning models, intelligent agents, and large language models (LLMs) work, and how they're being used in fields like healthcare, education, art, customer service, and more. Real-life case studies and hands-on examples will bring the concepts to life. Whether you're tech-savvy or just AI-curious, this class will give you the knowledge to understand, evaluate, use and talk about AI in a meaningful way.
