Elements of AI
University of Helsinki


Summary

“Elements of AI” is a free, self-paced online course created by the University of Helsinki and Reaktor that aims to make artificial intelligence understandable to a broad audience without requiring prior programming or advanced mathematics. It introduces key AI concepts such as machine learning, neural networks, problem-solving, probability, and the societal implications of AI, while combining theoretical explanations with simple practical exercises.
The course is divided into two main parts—an introductory section and a more technical “Building AI” section—and encourages learners to think critically about what AI can and cannot do, as well as its impact on work, society, and ethics.
