Our Approach to Artificial Intelligence (AI)
App Academy’s greatest desire is to make coding accessible to everyone, in order to improve the world. AI helps us to be able to fulfill our core mission. It has the potential to transform and conquer the challenges we face in today’s society in new and creative ways. As such, the next generation of software engineers are being trained to work in collaboration with AI, so that these innovations can become a reality. We’ll teach you the AI skills you’ll need in order to produce meaningful contributions in this exciting decade to come.
What is AI?
Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is more than just a trendy term. It's a means for computers to take on tasks that usually need human-like thinking.

Why App Academy is Choosing to Embrace AI
When it comes to predicting the impact AI will have on the global economy in the coming years, we can be sure of two things…its limitless potential and disruptive effects will transform life as we know it.
Impacts of AI
According to PwC, AI is projected to be a $15.7 Trillion dollar industry by 2030. That’s larger than the GDP of China and India put together.

AI Will Bring New Employment Opportunities
In addition to new types of workers who will focus on thinking creatively about how AI can be developed and applied, a new set of personnel will be required to build, maintain, operate, and regulate these emerging technologies. For example, we will need the equivalent of air traffic controllers to control the autonomous vehicles on the road. Same day delivery and robotic packaging and warehousing are also resulting in more jobs for robots and for humans. All of this will facilitate the creation of new jobs that would not have existed in a world without AI.
