Amazing to think that 10 years ago that there were two new format Stanford open access courses that launched at the same time: AI Class (Peter Norvig, Sebastian Thrun) and ML Class (Andrew Ng). Thrun and Ng went on to launch Udemy and Coursera, respectively.
- forkLding 5y agoSebastian Thrun founded Udacity. Udemy was founded by other people.
- lotophage 5y agoWell, I got that amazingly wrong
- falcor84 5y agoThere was actually a third excellent course launched at the same time - Jennifer Widom's Introduction to Databases. The original version is no longer available, but there are mini-courses in its stead. Highly recommended - https://cs.stanford.edu/people/widom/DB-mooc.html https://cs.stanford.edu/people/widom/DB-mooc.html
