Building with AI

The first six modules explained how AI works, where it is used, and the ethics around it. This module is about doing: turning AI from something you use into something you build with. You do not need to be a programmer to follow along — the goal is to understand the building blocks and the path from idea to working tool.

You will explore the builder's toolkit, how software talks to AI through APIs, no-code and low-code platforms, how to ground AI in your own trusted data, AI agents and automation, how to test and evaluate AI products, and how to take an idea from a rough prototype to something people can actually rely on.
