Finland Is Making Its Online AI Crash Course Free To the World

Last year, Finland launched a free online crash course in artificial
intelligence with the aim of educating its citizens about the new
technology. Now, as a Christmas present to the world, the European nation
is making the six week program available for anyone to take. The Verge
reports:

Strictly speaking, it’s a present for the European Union. Finland is
relinquishing the EU’s rotating presidency at the end of the year, and
decided to translate its course into every EU language as a gift to
citizens. But there aren’t any geographical restrictions as to who can take
the course, so really it’s to the world’s benefit. The course certainly
proved itself in Finland, with more than 1 percent of the Nordic nation’s
5.5 million citizens signing up. The course, named Elements of AI, is
currently available in English, Swedish, Estonian, Finnish, and German.
