Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tutorial: A Complete Beginner’s Guide

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the way we live, work, and think. From virtual assistants like Siri and Alexa to recommendation systems on Netflix and Amazon, AI is deeply embedded in modern life. If you're new to this exciting field and want to understand what AI is, how it works, and how to get started, you're in the right place. This Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tutorial: A Complete Beginner’s Guide is designed to introduce you to the fundamentals of AI, its applications, and the tools you need to start your AI journey.

What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?

Artificial Intelligence is a branch of computer science that focuses on building systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. These tasks include problem-solving, learning, reasoning, language understanding, and perception. AI can be categorized into two types:

Narrow AI – AI systems that are trained for a specific task (e.g., facial recognition, email filtering).

General AI – A theoretical system that could perform any intellectual task a human can do.

In real-world scenarios, we mostly use Narrow AI. However, research is ongoing to achieve General AI, which would represent a massive leap in computing and cognitive science.

Why Learn AI?

AI is one of the fastest-growing and most impactful technologies in the world. Learning AI can open up vast career opportunities in fields like:

Data Science

Machine Learning

Robotics

Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Computer Vision

Automation and Cybersecurity

Companies around the globe are investing heavily in AI, and demand for AI professionals is skyrocketing. Whether you're a student, software developer, or tech enthusiast, learning AI can significantly boost your career.

Core Concepts of Artificial Intelligence

To effectively understand AI, you need to grasp several key concepts that form the foundation of the field:

1. Machine Learning (ML)

Machine Learning is a subset of AI where machines learn from data without being explicitly programmed. ML algorithms allow systems to identify patterns, make decisions, and improve over time with more data.

There are three types of machine learning:

Supervised Learning

Unsupervised Learning

Reinforcement Learning

2. Neural Networks and Deep Learning

Inspired by the human brain, neural networks are algorithms designed to recognize patterns. Deep Learning uses complex neural networks with many layers, enabling applications like image and speech recognition.

3. Natural Language Processing (NLP)

NLP allows machines to understand and respond to human language. Applications include chatbots, voice assistants, and language translation tools.

4. Computer Vision

This area focuses on enabling machines to “see” and interpret images or videos. It's used in facial recognition, medical imaging, and autonomous vehicles.

5. Robotics

AI-powered robots are designed to perform complex tasks in real-world environments. These range from industrial automation to surgical procedures.

Tools and Technologies for AI

Getting started with AI requires familiarity with certain tools and programming languages:

Python – The most popular language for AI due to its simplicity and vast libraries (TensorFlow, Keras, Scikit-learn).

R – Useful for statistical analysis and data visualization.

Jupyter Notebooks – Ideal for writing and sharing live code, visualizations, and narratives.

Frameworks and Libraries:

TensorFlow – Google’s open-source library for numerical computation and large-scale machine learning.

Keras – A user-friendly deep learning API, built on top of TensorFlow.

PyTorch – A deep learning framework developed by Facebook, known for its flexibility and speed.

OpenCV – A library for computer vision tasks.

Real-World Applications of AI

AI is not just a theoretical concept—it powers many technologies we use daily:

Healthcare – AI diagnoses diseases, predicts patient outcomes, and personalizes treatment plans.

Finance – Fraud detection, algorithmic trading, and customer service automation.

Retail – Product recommendations, demand forecasting, and customer behavior analysis.

Transportation – Self-driving cars, route optimization, and logistics automation.

Education – Personalized learning paths and AI tutors.

i hate to say it because i'm neurodivergent and a chronic-pain-haver but like... sometimes stuff is going to be hard and that's okay.

it's okay if you don't understand something the first few times it's explained to you. it's okay if you have to google every word in a sentence. it's okay if you need to spend a few hours learning the context behind a complicated situation. it's okay if you need to read something, think about it, and then come back to re-read it.

i get it. giving up is easier, and we are all broken down and also broke as hell. nobody has the time, nobody has the fucking energy. that is how they win, though. that is why you feel this way. it is so much easier, and that is why you must resist the impetus to shut down. fight through the desire you've been taught to "tl;dr".

embrace when a book is confusing for you. accept not all media will be transparent and glittery and in the genre you love. question why you need everything to be lily-white and soft. i get it. i also sometimes choose the escapism, the fantasy-romance. there's no shame in that. but every day i still try to make myself think about something, to actually process and challenge myself. it is hard, often, because of my neurodivergence. but i fight that urge, because i think it's fucking important.

especially right now. the more they convince you not to think, the easier it will be to feed you misinformation. the more we accept a message without criticism, the more power they will have over that message. the more you choose convenience, the more they will make propaganda convenient to you.

"AI does this better than me :("

"My work is never as good as AI's :("

"I have to use AI to be good :("

you're devaluing yourself. AI is not smart, it's not creative, it just has access to the whole internet at once (which btw includes all the wrong things), and guess what, so do you. You're better than the plagiarism machine and you've been lied to and told that it's smarter than you and I hope you stop believing that because you deserve better

Robot that detests AI art. Not just because of the unethical stuff, but also that it prefers human made art so so much more.

Seeing every brush/pencil stroke, the colors picked just for the moment, the process so strange and alien at first, before becoming an mesmerizing tapestry to them!

They even love every mistake, every messed up line, every smudged eraser mark, all the pieces that are forever stuck being work in progress...

"The world's coral reefs are close to 25 percent larger than we thought. By using satellite images, machine learning and on-ground knowledge from a global network of people living and working on coral reefs, we found an extra 64,000 square kilometers (24,700 square miles) of coral reefs – an area the size of Ireland.

That brings the total size of the planet's shallow reefs (meaning 0-20 meters deep) to 348,000 square kilometers – the size of Germany. This figure represents whole coral reef ecosystems, ranging from sandy-bottomed lagoons with a little coral, to coral rubble flats, to living walls of coral.

Within this 348,000 km² of coral is 80,000 km² where there's a hard bottom – rocks rather than sand. These areas are likely to be home to significant amounts of coral – the places snorkelers and scuba divers most like to visit.

You might wonder why we're finding this out now. Didn't we already know where the world's reefs are?

Previously, we've had to pull data from many different sources, which made it harder to pin down the extent of coral reefs with certainty. But now we have high resolution satellite data covering the entire world – and are able to see reefs as deep as 30 meters down.

Pictured: Geomorphic mapping (left) compared to new reef extent (red shading, right image) in the northern Great Barrier Reef.

[AKA: All the stuff in red on that map is coral reef we did not realize existed!! Coral reefs cover so much more territory than we thought! And that's just one example. (From northern Queensland)]

We coupled this with direct observations and records of coral reefs from over 400 individuals and organizations in countries with coral reefs from all regions, such as the Maldives, Cuba, and Australia.

To produce the maps, we used machine learning techniques to chew through 100 trillion pixels from the Sentinel-2 and Planet Dove CubeSat satellites to make accurate predictions about where coral is – and is not. The team worked with almost 500 researchers and collaborators to make the maps.

The result: the world's first comprehensive map of coral reefs extent, and their composition, produced through the Allen Coral Atlas. [You can see the interactive maps yourself at the link!]

The maps are already proving their worth. Reef management agencies around the world are using them to plan and assess conservation work and threats to reefs."

Oh my god I finally wrote it. This idea bit me and then wouldn't leave. POV is in 2nd person but it is written with my female Unnamed!MC in mind. Summary: You attempt to go shopping without Leander.

You're embarrassed to say that you didn't notice your new reputation until Ais almost had to spell it out of for you.

It was the middle of the day, and while the spring weather meant that it was not particularly hot, the sunlight beat down on your brow like a stern mother chastising you for leaving the house without a hat. At least you had your cloak, though that was more out of necessity than anything else.

Your fingers twisted beneath the fabric, out of sight and - most importantly - out of harm's way. The mid-week market was too rowdy and crowded for you to trust the thin wrap of your bandages.

Ais found you at one of the stalls. Even without your Sight recoiling at the anomalous entity clinging to the demon's soul, you would have noticed his approach long before he reached your side. Thickly muscled shoulders pushed their way between the bustling mob of shoppers, hawkers, and opportunistic pickpockets until he reached your side.

"Didn't expect to see you here, Sparrow," Ais said in lieu of a greeting. The angle of his shadow shaded you nicely from the sun, so you reluctantly allowed the man to loom over your shoulder like a particularly nosy umbrella as you carefully perused the stall's selection. The throaty laugh that escaped him made you flush, as did the low comment of, "Oh? Cute."

"What? I'm just getting some cake," you replied archly. "It's not a big deal."

"Ah, but not just any cake, Sparrow. Madame Yasmina's orange blossom cakes," Ais pointed out.

You bit your bottom lip, deliberately not making eye contact as the shopkeeper wrapped your sticky-sweet confection in oil-paper to prevent the golden syrup from dripping onto your hands. Then she pulled out a much larger box tied in sage-green ribbon.

"You're the oracle staying at the Wick, right?" It had the cadence of a question but the woman didn't wait for you to answer before handing you the distressingly fancy container. "This is for your boss, dear."

"What?" You quickly wrapped your hands around the box. Whatever was inside probably cost more than you made in a month if not more. "My boss? I don't-?"

Your questions went unanswered as the woman had already moved on to the next customer, and you were forced to retreat by the press of hungry shoppers. Bemused, you sighed and placed your cake in you satchel, careful that it wouldn't be squashed by your admittedly meagert possessions. Then you hurried off to visit the rest of the market.

You'd almost forgotten about Ais, and if you'd thought the demon would leave you alone afterwards, you were sorely mistaken. Whatever business he had come into the city for, that had been put on hiatus in favour of trailing after you on your shopping trip.

"I see Leander's upgraded from paying for your room to funding your sweet tooth," he noted, his long legs keeping up with you with ease. "I guess it was only a matter of time."

"I don't know what you're talking about," you retorted in a clipped voice. "I bought this myself. The cake, I mean. I don't know anything about the box."

"Is that so?" Ais's brows were raised in clear surprise. They quickly lowered as he tilted his head. "I did wonder why you were here alone. He finally let you out of his sight for the afternoon, huh?"

You huffed. "He didn't let me do anything. I wanted to go to the market, so I went to the market."

You covertly did not mention that you hadn't actually told Leander about your plans, and had also chosen to sneak out only after you'd seen him leave the Wick. If the barkeeper had been telling the truth, Leander was currently settling some business in another district and wouldn't be back until sundown.

It wasn't out of fear mind you, only that...honestly you didn't understand Leander. It was one thing to offer to cure your curse out of the goodness of his heart, and it was one thing to offer you free food and accommodation as part of that charity, but it was another to essentially appoint himself your de facto...benefactor, for lack of a less salacious word.

It had been fine for the first few days, when the only thing you wanted to do was shower, sleep, eat, and then sleep some more. It had been somewhat manageable when he'd proceeded to show you around the city and insisted on buying suspiciously shiny trinkets to commemorate your time together. By the time you'd started finding gloves, jewelry, and dresses by the door you'd put your foot down.

"Are you sure?" Leander had asked when you'd demanded he return the - admittedly gorgeous - cheongsam. He held it out invitingly, the deep emerald fabric shimmering under the warm candlelight. Gold embroidery traced the delicate outline of flowers along the hem. "Have you tried it on?" "No, and I'm not going to," you'd folded your arms across your chest, trying not to look too long at the silky waterfall of fabric. You'd never seen anything so gorgeous, let alone worn it. "I don't need it." His eyes had softened, and you'd flinched at the kicked-puppy-dog expression that crossed his handsome face. “It's not about need. I just thought...well...you're always taking care of yourself, but when’s the last time you let someone take care of you for a change?”

Though your heart had fluttered, you had still turned down the dress (and the matching necklace and earrings). Leander's generosity was appealing, but you hadn't traveled this far to fall into the arms of the first man with more money than wits. It was one thing to swindle a rich lech who thought the pretty fortune teller was interested just because he'd pulled The Lovers tarot, it was another to take advantage of the cheerful green-eyed mage trying to save you.

A heavy arm landed around your shoulders, and you nearly dropped Leander's package in your attempt to stay balanced while hiding your bandaged fingers. Ais leaned over you, grinning brightly. "Well, since the dragon finally let the princess out the tower for a minute, wanna see the sights with me?"

"Didn't you come here for something important?!" You asked, but Ais was already propelling you down the street.

"It can wait. I smell skewers."

"Where?!"

Ten minutes later the two of you were purchasing sticks of tender chicken, grilled and spiced to perfection. You blinked in confusion when the shopkeeper passed you an extra stick and a paper cup of hot pepper flakes.

"You're the one staying at the Wick, right? Tell Leander it's on the house."

"Uh, thank you?" You hadn't even had to ask for the extra spice. Ais grumbled something under his breath and badgered you until you handed over half your skewer.

That wasn't the end of it. At every stall you visited, and even some you didn't, you were offered items for free or heavily discounted. All the time with some mention of Leander. By late afternoon you were utterly befuddled and would have been laden down if Ais hadn't charitably offered to hold the heavier items in return for some pork strips.

"Princess loves these."

"Then why are you eating them?"

"I like them too."

You sat down on one of the wooden benches lining the edge of the fountain. Since most people were either at work or at the market, the center was unusually quiet. Ais sat down next to you, his large body instantly occupying most of the space, especially when he flung his arms across the back. He and Leander were alike in that way, you noted. The green-eyed man often did the same thing.

"Shoes are nice," Ais commented.

"You like them?" You stretched out one of your legs, admiring the thigh-high boots you'd purchased. Along with the cake, these had been your main reason for braving the mid-week horde. You'd been saving up to buy a new pair, but the slashed price had certainly helped.

There had also been a pair of gloves - black and stitched with gold geometric patterns - but you'd settled on the boots as the more pressing and less flashy option. Bandages and a cloak had worked up 'til now, but you couldn't walk the muddy streets in your old boots that were falling apart at the soles and seams.

Ais smirked, scarlet eyes flashing with something you were too late to catch. "Oh yeah. Real pretty, Sparrow. Though, I have to wonder if your boss would be happy seeing you flaunt it around me."

You groaned and rolled your eyes. "For the last time, Leander isn't my boss. Just because I tell fortunes at the Wick, that doesn't mean I work for him."

"Sure, but frankly that's the less embarrassing explanation for your reputation," Ais reached into one of his pockets and retrieved a cigarette and lighter. A flash of gold flame, and then gauzy grey smoke drifted from his lips, carrying the sweet scent of anise and cloves. He glanced down at you and saw the bemused look on your face. "Oh wow, you really don't know? He must have you on a pretty tight leash."

You bristled at the wording. "I don't go out much. There's no point." Not only did the number of people filling Eridia hurt your Sight, you also didn't want to accidentally hurt anyone. At least with Leander, you didn't have to huddle and hide. "What are you talking about?"

"Shouldn't you know better than me what the people in Lowtown call you nowadays?" Ais leaned down, his words coming out in a low, private murmur. "The pretty thing that wandered into Eridia and into the Bloodhound's nest. Leander's little oracle."

You shoved yourself away, gaping up at the monster. "I'm not...-! I don't-!"

"You don't what?" Ais tilted his head. "Don't tell fortunes from the Bloodhound's unofficial headquarters? You aren't sleeping there free of charge? You haven't been seen hanging on pretty boy's arm by multiple people on multiple days? He hasn't been trying to buy you fancy clothes?"

"I told him to stop doing that last part," you covered your face with your palms, causing your next words to come out muffled. "And he was just showing me around Eridia! In case you forgot, I'm still kind of new here!"

"I know, which is why it surprised me to hear," he turned his head to puff out a circle of smoke. Ais suddenly stiffened and the next billow of smoke slid between fanged teeth bared in a grin. To your surprise, the demon rose to his feet. "Some advice, in return for the skewers. There are more eyes on you than you think, little Sparrow."

"What are you talking about?" You asked, but Ais was already walking away, trailing sweet smoke all the way. You barely had time to wonder what all that meant when another equally large man fell into the space next to you, this time smelling of expensive cologne.

"I thought I'd find you here," Leander grinned down at you, eyes dark and crinkled at the corners. "You didn't tell me you wanted to go shopping. I would have postponed today's meeting."

You let Leander lead you back to the Wick, your bandaged arm looped around his. Your fingers rested lightly on his bicep, oh so aware of the watching eyes that followed you all the way to bar and even up the stairs to your bedroom.

On the mattress lay a pair of gorgeous, ink black gloves. Struck through with gold filigree and stitched with geometric lines.

[casualavocados]

You've never done that when I got close to you before. Why? None of your business. Tell me, or you can't leave.
