Who it's for

Anyone who wants to create images or video with AI and actually understand what they're doing — no design background or coding, just clear explanations paired with live interactive visuals.

What you'll learn

  • Understand how AI images are made — diffusion, from noise to picture
  • Write strong prompts using a reliable recipe (subject, setting, style, details) plus negative prompts
  • Edit and remix — image-to-image, inpainting, and seeds for variations
  • Know how AI learned to draw, and why it keeps getting better
  • Understand how AI video works — a flipbook of frames — and why it's costly
  • Spot deepfakes and use AI image & video tools responsibly
  • Know which real tools to use (and start free) — and actually make your first image
