Illustrate the human-machine collaboration made possible by AI, in particular through machine learning.

Intended audience
Anyone wishing to understand the principles and uses of artificial intelligence in an organization: developers, project managers, product, data or security managers.

Prerequisites
None.

Certification
L’examen consiste en un QCM de 1 heure comprenant 40 questions. Un score minimum de 65 % est requis pour réussir l’examen. Le passage de l’examen a lieu en ligne et en anglais sur le site EXIN.

Course schedule

1
Introduction to artificial intelligence

  • Definitions: AI, machine learning, generative AI, robotics.
  • Main approaches to AI: symbolic, statistical, connectionist.
  • Essential concepts: algorithm, model, training, inference.
  • AI types: weak (narrow) and general (AGI).
  • Historical development and outlook.

2
Societal, environmental and ethical impacts

  • Effects of AI on employment, skills and work organization.
  • AI's carbon footprint and how to reduce it: eco-design, digital sobriety.
  • Ethical principles: fairness, explicability, transparency, respect for privacy.
  • Governance and regulatory compliance (RGPD, AI Act).

3
Technologies and machine learning

  • Overview of related technologies: cloud, IoT, robotics.
  • AI value chain: collection, preparation, training, deployment, supervision.
  • Machine learning fundamentals: supervised and unsupervised learning.
  • Model management: overlearning, validation, performance metrics.
  • Introduction to generative AI and language models (LLM).

4
Data, quality and governance

  • The central role of data in AI systems.
  • Quality criteria: accuracy, completeness, freshness, traceability.
  • Governance: key roles (data owner, data steward) and responsibilities.
  • Data risks and mitigation measures.
  • Good visualization and interpretation practices.

5
AI framing and opportunities

  • Identify relevant use cases according to company strategy.
  • Analyze the value, feasibility and risks of an AI project.
  • Build a business case and an IA business case.
  • Estimate costs, benefits and return on investment.
  • Build a pilot plan or MVP (proof of concept).

6
Project management and AI governance

  • Roles and stakeholders: sponsor, business, data scientist, MLOps, legal, DPO.
  • Choose the right management approach (agile, iterative, experimental).
  • Governance: usage policies, AI committee, model supervision and monitoring.
  • Post-deployment monitoring: drift, quality of service, equity.

7
Evolving professions and increasing skills

  • New roles: AI product manager, ML engineer, ethics officer, data steward.
  • Impact on professions and organizations.

  • The augmented human: collaboration between AI and human expertise.

8
Case studies and feedback

  • Analysis of real cases from different business sectors.
  • Key success factors: quality data, strong sponsorship, business adoption.
  • Common causes of failure: unclear framework, data debt, lack of ownership.
  • Lessons that can be transferred to participants' AI projects.
