Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications have now become embedded in most commercial sectors. Applications range from support functions (e.g. text recognition) to standalone products (e.g. autonomous driving).

The course will focus on two main areas: First, the understanding of the application of AI from an economic perspective, and second, from a technical perspective.

In the economic part, students get to know different companies and learn how Artificial Intelligence affects their business model. In the technical part of the course, the aim is to gain an understanding of how the algorithms of artificial intelligence work. Students learn what problems can potentially be addressed using artificial intelligence and where to look for pitfalls.
