Artificial Intelligence for Product Managers

Course Summary

The AI for Product Managers course will provide product managers with a functional understanding of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Students will explore through hands-on workshops how to define a goal and business case for AI, how long it takes to build such a system, and how to design the project plan plus much more.

This course begins by exploring the AI ecosystem and the differences between AI, Machine Learning (ML), Deep Learning, and Natural Language Processing (NLP). Next, students will learn how AI works with data including terminologies and workflows. The course concludes with a discussion on what data scientists do, what feature engineering is, and what makes a 'killer' data scientist.
