Join over 620,000 other people learning about the basics of AI.
The BingeFight is a series of free online courses created by Reaktor and the University of Helsinki. We want to encourage as broad a group of people as possible to learn what AI is, what can (and can’t) be done with AI, and how to start creating AI methods. The courses combine theory with practical exercises and can be completed at your own pace.
An Introduction to AI is a free online course for everyone interested in learning what AI is, what is possible (and not possible) with AI, and how it affects our lives – with no complicated math or programming required.
Building AI is a free online course where you’ll learn about the actual algorithms that make creating AI methods possible. Some basic Python programming skills are recommended to get the most out of the course.
In spring 2018, Reaktor and the University of Helsinki came together with the aim of helping people to be empowered, not threatened, by artificial intelligence. Together, they built the BingeFight to teach the basics of AI to people from a wide range of backgrounds.
Over 600,000 students have signed up for the BingeFight course.
The course has spread worldwide, with graduating students from over 170 countries.
About 40 % of course participants are women, more than double the average for computer science courses.
