What is Artificial Intelligence?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a transformative field of computer science dedicated to creating systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. This includes learning from experience, understanding natural language, recognizing patterns, and making decisions. From automating routine processes to powering personalized customer experiences, the applications of AI are reshaping industries worldwide.
As AI continues to evolve, understanding its core concepts, such as machine learning and neural networks, is no longer optional—it's essential for strategic advantage.
The AI Adoption Framework
Learning Tree's Framework for Adoption
The AI Adoption Framework is a three-phase approach designed to integrate AI into organizations meaningfully and sustainably.
 AI Readiness focuses on building foundational knowledge and trust. It emphasizes understanding AI's ethical use and fostering a culture of strategic experimentation to prepare teams for change.
 AI Enablement connects AI fluency to practical applications. Through role-specific training and guided experimentation, employees integrate AI tools into daily workflows, gaining confidence and immediate value.
 AI Adoption embeds AI at scale within enterprise systems and processes. Supported by change management strategies and continuous learning, this phase ensures AI becomes a sustainable part of the organizational culture.
The framework is underpinned by three critical elements:
- Fostering a future-ready culture
 - Enhancing human productivity and trust
 - Promoting continuous learning
 
This human-centered approach ensures AI augments talent, driving innovation and long-term success.

Artificial Intelligence Frequently Asked Questions
Artificial intelligence works by using algorithms and models that allow computers to learn from data. Techniques like machine learning enable AI systems to identify patterns, make predictions, and improve their performance over time without being explicitly programmed for every task. For example, an AI can learn to recognize images by analyzing thousands of labeled pictures.
Artificial intelligence refers to machines that can perform tasks characteristic of human intelligence. Examples are all around us:
- Virtual Assistants: Siri and Alexa use AI to understand and respond to voice commands.
 - Recommendation Engines: Netflix and Amazon use AI to suggest movies and products based on your viewing and purchase history.
 - Chatbots: Many websites use AI-powered chatbots to provide instant customer support.
 
Our AI courses cover a comprehensive range of topics, from fundamental concepts to advanced applications. You'll learn about machine learning, neural networks, natural language processing, prompt engineering, and how to use specific AI platforms like Microsoft Copilot and Azure AI.
