Episode 9 — Logic and Reasoning Systems

Certified - Introduction to AI Audio Course ·

2025/09/10

Reasoning has always been at the heart of intelligence, and in this episode we focus on how AI systems use logic to derive conclusions. Starting with propositional and predicate logic, we’ll explain how knowledge can be structured into true or false statements and rules. Deductive, inductive, and abductive reasoning are compared as different ways to reach conclusions from data or hypotheses. You’ll also learn about inference engines and the difference between forward and backward

Certified - Introduction to AI Audio Course ·

2025/09/10

For AI to reason, it needs to store and organize information. This episode explores knowledge representation, the frameworks that allow machines to capture facts, relationships, and rules. From semantic networks linking concepts to ontologies defining categories, we examine how different structures model the world. Logic-based systems like first-order logic provide precision, while production rules offer flexibility. Knowledge graphs, increasingly common today, connect entities into vast

Episode 7 — Search and Problem Solving in AI

Certified - Introduction to AI Audio Course ·

2025/09/10

Before machine learning took center stage, AI was already grappling with how to solve problems systematically. This episode dives into search and problem solving, two of the earliest and still fundamental approaches to intelligence. You’ll learn how problems are represented as states and transitions, and how uninformed search strategies like breadth-first and depth-first explore possibilities blindly. We’ll then move to informed searches, where heuristics act as shortcuts, guiding

Episode 6 — Data — The Fuel of AI

Certified - Introduction to AI Audio Course ·

2025/09/10

No matter how advanced the algorithm, it can’t run without data. This episode focuses on why data is considered the fuel of AI, exploring the different types that drive training and performance. Structured data, such as rows in databases, is contrasted with unstructured data like images, text, and audio. We’ll examine the steps needed to prepare data — collecting, cleaning, labeling, and augmenting — and why quality matters as much as quantity. You’ll also learn about the importance of

Certified - Introduction to AI Audio Course ·

2025/09/10

When people talk about machines “thinking,” they’re not talking about human intuition or creativity. They’re talking about algorithms — structured sets of instructions — and representations, the ways information is stored and processed. In this episode, we look at how computers encode numbers, words, and images, and how those encodings become the raw material for reasoning. You’ll learn about symbolic approaches, where knowledge is captured in logical rules, and sub-symbolic approaches,

Certified - Introduction to AI Audio Course ·

2025/09/10

AI, machine learning, and deep learning are terms often used interchangeably, but they are not the same — and confusing them makes it harder to understand the field. This episode clears the fog by breaking down how these layers of terminology connect. We’ll begin with Artificial Intelligence as the broadest category: any system designed to mimic aspects of human thought. Within that sits machine learning, where computers improve performance by finding patterns in data rather than relying

Certified - Introduction to AI Audio Course ·

2025/09/10

Artificial Intelligence didn’t appear overnight; it has a story stretching back more than seven decades. In this episode, we step into that story, beginning with Alan Turing’s famous question — can machines think? — and the Turing Test that followed as an early benchmark for intelligence. We’ll visit the 1956 Dartmouth Conference where the term “Artificial Intelligence” was first coined, and hear how optimism in the 1960s gave way to the harsh realities of AI winters when funding dried up

2025/09/10

This PrepCast is designed to teach Artificial Intelligence in a way that fits into real life: no slides, no diagrams, no heavy math on the page — just clear explanations you can absorb anywhere. In this roadmap episode, we walk through the design of the series, showing how the episodes are structured so you can either listen sequentially and build a complete foundation or drop into individual topics as needed. You’ll learn why each installment follows a consistent format — introduction, two

2025/09/10

Artificial Intelligence is a term everyone has heard, but few understand in depth. In this opening episode, we cut through the hype and get to the core: what does it actually mean when we say a system is “intelligent”? You’ll hear how the idea of machines that mimic human thought emerged, why early approaches like rule-based programming fell short, and how modern data-driven methods reshaped the field. We’ll compare narrow AI systems that perform single tasks with the elusive concept of
