Introduction
Because the world is changing rapidly... and you are expected to change with it.
Have you noticed that artificial intelligence is no longer the "domain of programmers"?
It has become part of everything: from writing emails to designing advertisements, from content management to data analysis.
In the background, Google has been launching a series of short, free educational programmes that anyone — yes, anyone — can start from.
And the best part?
You won't need any programming or mathematics knowledge. Just 30 to 60 minutes of your time, and a dose of curiosity.
