This chapter starts at the beginning : by discussing what Artificial Intelligence is, and what it isn't. You'll learn some common terms, and some ways to test for 'intelligence'.

There are so many opinions on AI, but often when asked to describe what AI actually is, people often struggle to do so. So it's worth taking the time going through both definitions but also introducing AI from a technology and research perspective.

The field of AI is huge -- almost certainly a lot larger that you thought! And it's definitely older than you might expect. So having an overview before we dive in to specifics helps set up the course, and already starts to build your knowledge of the fundamentals.
