The 1st chapter of the textbook provides a broad overview of artificial intelligence. It covers some prerequisites, applications, milestones, terminology, and mechanics of the subject. It also demonstrates the code that’s used for loading datasets, training models, and making predictions.

We’ve spent many weeks writing the questionnaires. And the reason for that, is because we tried to think about what we wanted you to take away from each chapter. So if you read the questionnaire first, you can find out which things we think you should know before you move on, so please make sure to do the questionnaire before you move onto the next chapter.
