What are AI assistants?
About the course
This microcourse provides a simple introduction to AI assistants (and agents), the different types available, and how they work. You’ll also gain insight into what distinguishes off-the-shelf solutions from assistants you can customize yourself—without needing to be a developer.
The course content is based on a national guide to AI assistants, “AI Assistants in the Workplace – A Practical Guide,” which was developed by a broad group of experts commissioned by the Ministry of Digitalization and Public Administration.
You will learn:
- Understand different types of AI assistants and their applications
- Explore how AI assistants work
- Assess the needs and opportunities for using AI assistants in your own workday
