This course provides a non-technical exploration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), examining its history, current state, and future implications. It challenges the common notion that AI will soon surpass human intelligence, instead proposing that what we're creating is an illusion of intelligence. The curriculum draws from various fields including philosophy, linguistics, and cognitive science to provide a comprehensive view of AI. Students will learn about the Turing Test, the Chomskyan Revolution in linguistics, and modern developments in machine learning and natural language processing. The course also delves into philosophical questions about the nature of intelligence, understanding, and consciousness in relation to AI. By the end, learners will have a nuanced perspective on AI's capabilities, limitations, and its role in amplifying human intelligence rather than replacing it.
