COMP 1960 - 001 Exploring AI
This course provides a broad introduction to artificial intelligence (AI) as both a technological and cultural phenomenon. Students will examine the historical development of AI, key technical concepts underlying modern AI systems such as neural networks and machine learning, and emerging applications in different fields. The course explores how AI systems learn from data, generate language and images, and use human guidance through techniques like prompt design, retrieval-augmented generation, and fine-tuning. Alongside technical exploration, students will consider the social, economic, and ethical implications of AI, including issues of bias, labor disruption, authorship, and responsible use. Hands-on activities and discussions will help students critically evaluate AI’s benefits, limitations, and evolving role in society. While there are no formal prerequisites, students should have basic math skills such as working with percentages and interpreting graphs (equivalent to MATH 1030 or above).
