In this course, we explore artificial intelligence (AI). What does artificial intelligence mean and what does intelligence mean? We neglect the coding part of the course since the focus of the course is to answer these questions.

When the implementation type of the course is contact, online or blended it is required that the student is present during those teaching hours that are marked in the study schedule. If you are absent more than 25%, your grade will be lowered by one. If you are absent more than 50%, the course is failed.
