Course

AI, Jobs & Society

AI is reshaping work, culture, and the rules we live by — and the headlines swing from utopia to apocalypse. This course walks the honest middle. Will it take your job? Where does bias come from? Who owns what it makes, and whose work trained it? How do you handle deepfakes, read a scary energy statistic, or make sense of the new laws? Each lesson is a short interactive scene and one clear takeaway — the contested landscape, not a set of settled numbers, so you can think for yourself about AI and society.

The jobs question

The headline says AI will take your job. The honest picture is stranger and more useful: it comes for tasks, and roles reshape around them.

›

Bias & fairness

AI learns patterns from human data — including the unfair ones. Here's where bias creeps in, and what 'fixing' it really takes.

›

Generative AI is trained on mountains of human work. Whether that needs consent or payment is one of the biggest fights in tech.

›

Deepfakes & misinformation

Convincing fake photos, voices, and video are now cheap and fast. The old trick of spotting glitches no longer works — so check where it came from.

›

Energy & environment

AI really does use energy and water — but the scary single numbers you see are often shaky. The skill is reading a contested claim, not memorising a figure.

›

Who governs AI?

There's no world government for AI — but rules are arriving. The EU's AI Act sorts uses by risk, and it's one patch of a growing global patchwork.

›

Living with it

No hype, no doom — just a level-headed way to live and work alongside AI as it settles into everyday life.
