Before you sign up
For anyone who uses AI tools and wants to understand why they sometimes get things confidently wrong. Explaining next-token prediction, memory and steerability in plain terms is more useful day to day than most 'intro to AI' courses. It's free with a certificate. The caveat: the page gives no time estimate, and it's conceptual rather than hands-on. For a longer, broader free grounding, try Elements of AI.
What you'll learn
Free introductory Anthropic Academy course giving a working mental model of how generative AI behaves and why. Covers next-token prediction, knowledge, working memory and steerability, so learners can spot unexpected outputs, judge what a task needs and apply targeted fixes. Certificate on completion.
