TOPICS: REVISITING AI in Spring 2025 (CS3091)

In "Revisiting AI," we embark on a journey through the evolution of artificial intelligence, from its philosophical inception with Alan Turing to today's cutting-edge generative models. This course is not just for computer scientists; it's an invitation to all students curious about the world AI is shaping around us. We'll explore: - The foundational ideas behind AI, including the iconic Turing Test. - The shift from symbolic AI to neural networks, understanding each paradigm's strengths and limitations. - The ethical landscape of AI, delving into issues like bias, transparency, and the societal implications of autonomous systems. - How AI intersects with education, questioning how it might influence learning and teaching.
