See CRICOS-registered alternativesThis subject provides an introduction to the core concepts, methods, and applications of artificial intelligence. Students explore major AI approaches, including symbolic methods, supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, generative models, and large language models. The subject focuses on developing a clear understanding of how these systems work, where they are effective, and what limitations and assumptions underlie their behaviour. Across weekly hands-on activities, students learn to build and evaluate simple machine learning models, interpret a range of AI outputs, compare the strengths of different techniques, and understand how evaluation methods guide model selection. Practical work emphasises the use of appropriate data-handling and evaluation methods, as well as the importance of robustness, context, and ethical considerations when developing or analysing AI systems. By the end of the subject, students will be able to interpret and assess AI, understand their societal and ethical implications, and form a critical perspective on contemporary and emerging AI technologies. They will also develop foundational practical skills in working with data, training models, and communicating AI results.
