Critical Thinking in the Age of AI

AI generates answers instantly — but it cannot decide what to trust. In a fast-changing world of information overload, critical thinking is essential. This course teaches you how to evaluate AI outputs, detect flawed reasoning, recognize cognitive biases and logical fallacies, and make sound, human-centered decisions. You’ll learn to move from automatic reactions to deliberate evaluation — using AI as a decision partner, not just an answer machine.
