Protect your skills, privacy, and career from generative AI & automation impacts

Is Artificial Intelligence the future’s greatest opportunity - or its most dangerous threat?

AI already makes life-altering decisions: it filters your job applications, approves your bank loans, and shapes the information you see online.

In this course, you'll uncover the hidden dangers of AI - how deepfakes and misinformation are weaponized, whether your job is at risk from automation, and who really owns AI-generated art and content.

With real-world examples and practical strategies, you’ll learn how to detect AI manipulation, protect your career, and think critically in a world increasingly run by algorithms. Don’t just use AI: understand its power, its risks, and how to stay ahead.

AI Biases and Discrimination:

Uncover the hidden biases embedded in AI systems that can lead to unfair and discriminatory outcomes in job applications, loan approvals, and more. You will examine real-life case studies where seemingly objective algorithms have perpetuated harmful stereotypes based on race, gender, and age.

Environmental Impact:

AI isn't magic. It's powered by massive data centers with a surprisingly large environmental footprint. In this chapter, you will uncover the hidden environmental costs of training large AI models, from enormous electricity consumption to significant water usage.

AI-Generated Content and Copyright:

As AI generates millions of images, texts, and songs, who owns the copyright - the user or the machine? In this chapter, we explore the complex legal and ethical battles over AI-generated content, plagiarism, and intellectual property.

AI Blindness:

One of the greatest threats of AI is the belief that it's "someone else's problem". This chapter exposes the common psychological traps and cognitive biases that cause us to underestimate and ignore AI's growing influence on our lives.
