Course Summary
In Alan Turing’s alma mater, students address what will surely be one of the most dramatic features of 21st century life. The course sets out to define AI while uncovering its history – including the role Cambridge visionaries played in its development. Alongside, students are introduced to its current uses and potential: in robotics, naturally, but in almost every other facet of life and government. They discover how designers and programmers bring, or are seeking to bring, AI into play, while creating their own algorithms to solve different problems. Part of the course is devoted to addressing the ethics surrounding AI and the threat to rights inherent in overreliance on machines.
