I ended up taking the Norvig AI class after this one and felt that a large majority of the material was also covered in the ML class, but usually more rigorously in the latter and as a means to more interesting stuff. If you feel like covering the material with a definite mathematical bent, I would recommend checking out this class.

so you are saying this class is more practical and that one is more bent on mathematical theory?

I would say that the AI class is a good overview for the field of AI - but Machine Learning is a good in-depth discussion of the machine learning approaches, which will generally also expose you to a lot of other related AI concepts.

Thanks for that info. Now I think I will not formally enroll in the intro to AI and focus more on ML class. Since I can only truly focus on one such class at a time it would be best to enroll in something I can apply directly.

Thank you for your input here - I was considering the same question as well (AI vs. ML).
