Instructor: 
Stephany Oliveros -  AI product manager, psychology researcher

The course is intentionally designed for non-technical beginners, offering no-code content, relatable examples, diverse use cases, and a feminist lens to ensure accessibility and relevance to learners from varied backgrounds and industries.

In a world where AI is reshaping industries, understanding artificial intelligence is more crucial than ever. But AI isn’t just about automation and productivity, it’s also about empowering ourselves, taking control of the technology shaping our future, and ensuring it aligns with our values as women. This is an introductory course and the starting point in your AI literacy path.

What we'll cover:

  • The basics of AI

  • Real-world applications

  • AI and ethics

 

SMART goals:

  • Enable women and underrepresented individuals to build foundational AI literacy and understand the core concepts of AI.
  • Correctly define and distinguish between AI, machine learning, and generative AI.

  • Identify at least 3 real-world applications of AI in their field (e.g., marketing, education, healthcare).

  • Recognize and describe 5 core AI ethics principles: transparency, fairness, privacy, safety, and accountability.

  • Craft 2–3 effective prompts for generative AI tools like ChatGPT.

Learners will gain practical, ethical, and creative AI skills that they can directly apply to:

  • Enhance their productivity and strategic thinking.

  • Launch or grow their own businesses.

  • Contribute to building more inclusive and bias-aware AI systems, an urgent gap in current tech development.

What is AI? Funny someone should ask that in the 21st century, right? I was in the middle of rewatching 'Interstellar, 2hrs 49mins movie, when I realized I should get something productive done first before attempting a continuation of the movie I began last night. So, I went back to my digital archives and dug out this short course -'Artificial intelligence 101' by SheAl. Jsyk, I did not pick up this course for the sake of the movie, but because I genuinely wanted to understand the concept of Al (and get back to my movie on time, lol). For the longest time I thought I knew. Turns out...I did and I didn't. This course showed me there was more to Al than ChatGPT or what Sci-fi movies depicted. It broke things down in a way that connected with my love for Sci-fi, but also with the curious learner in me, who wants to understand how things actually work. It reminded me that Al isn't just some futuristic concept, but that it is here. It is now. And it is shaping our every day lives more than we realize, and it has been for a long time. So here's to taking that step, however small, into the world of Al. I'm happy to share that I've just completed the Artificial Intelligence 101 course by SheAl and I'm very excited to keep learning and exploring, and hopefully applying this knowledge in meaningful ways.
