What you'll learn

AI that writes fluent answers is everywhere, and it's easy to blur it with machine learning. But a price, a risk score, or a fraud flag that someone has to defend to an auditor needs a different kind of answer. In this course, Machine Learning Explained, you'll gain the ability to tell which kind of problem is in front of you and when a prediction is safe to act on. First, you'll explore why machine learning trades certainty for probability. Next, you'll discover the handful of problems it handles well and where the time and money go. Finally, you'll learn how to divide the work between machine learning and generative AI, and what to bring to a specialist. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of machine learning needed to put the right tool on the right problem.
