I have recently completed the AI for Productivity online course provided by Duke University. Overall, I found the course to be highly practical and relevant to both academic and professional contexts. It helped me understand how AI tools can be used to improve productivity in areas such as writing, research, scheduling, data analysis, and communication. One of the strongest aspects of the course was its focus on real-world applications and responsible AI use. The case studies and examples made it easier to understand how to apply AI tools effectively while still maintaining human oversight and critical thinking. I also appreciated the emphasis on prompting techniques, workflow design, and the importance of validating AI outputs to avoid errors or hallucinations. This course has significantly improved my confidence in using AI tools more strategically in my studies and future career. Overall, I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to build practical AI skills for productivity and professional development.

I found this course to be very helpful. I'm reskilling to go back into the private sector and this course gave me tips on using AI for everything from scheduling to notetaking to cleaning up crazy spreadsheets. I also learned the names of many different AI tools I've never heard of that will assist me with many different types of tasks. I also liked the discussion assignments, and being able to see the responses of other learners. Thanks!
