The course itself is really good. But part of the course is to receive grade and grade peers assignment, which only a few of them were completed by other people. Meaning that you will not be graded and will not have a chance to grade others. And therefore, will not be able to conclude the course.

the information given by the course were good, although the peer grade system is really slow and doesn't give the needed feedback and motivation for learning the material fast enough.
use a different grading system such as 4-choice question

The logic using peer reviewed assignments is the worst that exists in the educational field. In many years of online courses, I am surprised that it is still used. It shows your laziness - you want to have a course to promote the university brand, but not want to spend effort to feedback. People pay for a subscription and then ask for a forum to evaluate their answer because they cannot receive a certificate without it. Do you think it's ok? Sorry, but I won't participate in this absurdity.

While there is some useful information in this course, there is also some misleading information. For example, in the section regarding Surveillance, there seems to be a bit of a scare tactic approach going on. There is also disinformation included. China does NOT have a "social credit system" and they do NOT use facial recognition in the way mentioned. Also, London and the UK have more CCTVs that either Beijing or Shanghai. There is demonstrated bias in this course.

The lessons are interesting but should be more bit-sized as information gets repetitive. The assignments are also not well-structured, asking for us to just share thoughts/summaries for every single task. Please look at varying how learners can test their knowledge or share their thoughts - it gets needlessly arduous and when trying to input via mobile app, the content becomes gibberish and I need to retype again on a laptop.

Le cours est une exploration approfondie et équilibrée des enjeux cruciaux liés au contrôle éthiques et défis sociétaux tel qu'il le prétend . Il aborde des questions éthiques complexes et des défis techniques et éthiques associés à la création de machines intelligentes et super intelligentes, tout en proposant différentes perspectives et solutions envisageables. Ce type de cours est extrêmement précieux pour l'avenir de l'humanité car il prépare les étudiants et les professionnels à comprendre et à gérer les implications profondes de l'IA sur la société, l'économie, l'éthique et même la survie de l'espèce humaine. En abordant ces questions de manière approfondie, le cours encourage la réflexion critique et la recherche de solutions innovantes contrôlées pour relever ces défis complexes. Ce cours offre une perspective complète sur les différentes stratégies possibles pour garantir un développement éthique et sûr de l'IA. Il constitue un outil éducatif essentiel pour sensibiliser les individus aux défis émergents de l'IA avancée et pour les préparer à contribuer de manière constructive à la gestion de ces défis dans les années à venir. Merci à Coursera et l'Université de Lund.

Es un curso muy completo que explica de forma clara las implicaciones que tiene y tendrá la Inteligencia Artificial en el ámbito personal y profesional de las personas. En la práctica, sirve como conocimiento a partir del cual trabajar para el presente y el futuro actual que será definido, entre otras cosas, por la IA. En particular, me pareció valioso que incorporaran el tema de las IA capaces de tener conciencia.

This course was fantastic! I really enjoyed the videos, content, and additional reading resources provided. I learned so much more than I expected when I first enrolled. This course is a MUST for anyone getting into AI, LLMs, Big Data, or AGI, or for those beginning their AI journey and wanting a deeper understanding of AI’s ethical discussions. Thank you, Lund University and Coursera, for such a great course!

I've taken two courses on artificial intelligence at Lund University. Both are outstanding. The readings and assignments were interesting, helpful, and kind of easy. This course generates more questions than it answers, which I've found to be incredibly intellectually challenging.

the course is very well thought of. Thank you for making it available for free, it very instructive and the reading suggestions are great. I would perhaps shorten the final module, as it became very repetitive and philosophical, without any objective proposals or examples.
