AI Concepts
Four Areas of AI Knowledge
AI concepts are organized into four sub-sections based on where the technology sits in the adoption curve and how teams encounter it at work.
| Section | What It Covers | Who It Is For |
|---|---|---|
| Fundamentals | Machine learning, NLP, computer vision, types of AI | Anyone new to AI who needs the basics |
| Generative AI | LLMs, prompt engineering, RAG, fine-tuning, vibe coding | Teams actively using ChatGPT, Claude, or similar tools |
| Agentic AI | AI agents, MCP, A2A, chatbots, copilots, automation | Teams building or evaluating agent workflows |
| Responsible AI | Governance, ethics, bias, safety, enterprise deployment | Leaders making AI adoption decisions |

Common Questions About AI Concepts
What is the difference between AI and machine learning?
AI is the broad field of making machines perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. Machine learning is a subset of AI where systems learn from data rather than being explicitly programmed. All machine learning is AI, but not all AI is machine learning.
What is generative AI?
Generative AI refers to AI systems that create new content including text, images, code, and audio based on patterns learned from training data. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and DALL-E are examples. The technology is built on large language models (LLMs) trained on massive text datasets.
What is agentic AI?
Agentic AI describes systems that can plan, execute multi-step tasks, use tools, and make decisions with minimal human oversight. Unlike chatbots that respond to one prompt at a time, agents can break down goals into subtasks, call APIs, search the web, and iterate on their own output.
