Have you heard of Massively Open Online Courses? Stanford is offering an Artificial Intelligense (AI) course during the fall quarter that is open, for free, to anyone. 200 students will take the course at Stanford. They hope to get thousands more taking it online, for a certificate, not course credit. This is the two minute “trailer” for the course.
