AI part 1: Bringing you up to speed on AI in plain language
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere. From headlines,office to the tools we use every day, AI is reshaping how we live and do business. But with so much buzz and technical jargon, understanding what AI actually is and how it functions can feel overwhelming.

Together, we explore:
why the current AI wave is different from previous AI hypes
how it went from decades of research to today’s breakthrough
what machine learning, deep learning and large language models really mean
how the different AI models are utilised
common misconception about AI
