    About This Course

    AI seems to think, reason, and understand. It's doing something far simpler — and far stranger. This module explains the real mechanism behind every AI response: read, learn patterns, predict.

    Once you see it, you can't unsee it. You'll understand why AI gets things confidently wrong, what a token is, and why the best users of AI are the ones who know the machine's limits.

    What You'll Learn

    • Explain how large language models actually work in plain terms
    • Understand why AI hallucinates — and when to verify its output
    • Define what a token is and why it matters
    • Distinguish between AI searching, retrieving, and predicting
