In partnership with Microsoftās AI for Good Lab
We worked with Microsoftās AI for Good Lab to create a groundbreaking course that brings AI for good training to everyone. The AI for Good Lab contributed key subject-matter experts who help us share the stories of research and development in the field, as well as ensuring the quality and integrity of our labs, data, and research.Ā
We live in a rapidly changing world and a world that is facing big challenges. Yet we have never been in a better position to use technology to help address these issues and positively influence the lives of millions on our planet as well as the planet itself.

What Learners From Previous Courses Say About DeepLearning.AI
āEnrolling in the Machine Learning course was the most consequential decision Iāve ever made. When I was facing unemployment, I turned things around by combining deep learning and Wall Street data to materialize my start-up dream!ā
āAs a Behavioral Scientist, I was able to adopt methods to understand my customers better, overcome the traditional āone-size-fits-allā approach, and design interventions which account for personality and individual differences.ā
āI gained confidence in my knowledge of machine learning. Since then, Iāve become a machine learning mentor, got a research paper published in IEEE, decided to pursue my Masters in Machine Learning, and was able to land a job at JP Morgan Chase.ā
āThe Machine Learning course became a guiding light. Andrew Ng explains concepts with simple visualizations and plots. I learned how to evaluate my training results and explain the outcomes to my colleagues, boss, and even the vice president of our company.ā
āThe Machine Learning course helped develop my problem-solving skills, inspired an attitude of experimentation, and shaped a passion for machine learning. Since then, I have automated several investment processes and experimented with investment data.ā
āThe Machine Learning course by Andrew Ng expanded my knowledge, so I could write a research paper on Facial Emotion Recognition and land an internship at Morgan Stanley.ā
āIn 2017, the Machine Learning course helped me gain a deep insight into Natural Language Processing and got me thinking about a new ML project with a friend. We built an ML app with a cloud instance to enhance recorded autobiographies with NLP-generated insights!ā
āIām a Computational Scientist with a Ph. D. in theoretical nuclear phsyics. I was working on a research project that involved archeological datasets that eventually led to a publication. The foundations of machine learning from Andrew’s class were essential in making it happen.ā
āAndrewās teaching style helped me grasp foundational concepts. The newly acquired knowledge from the Machine Learning course helped me land a second postdoctoral position, run tutorials for two data science courses, and write my first machine learning paper!ā
