## Overview

This repository is a study course for the AWS Certified AI Practitioner exam. A learner uses the overview to navigate five numbered subject areas, covering AI/ML fundamentals, generative AI, responsible AI, foundation-model applications, and security/governance, then can practice with the question collection. The tree supports the lesson sequence and subject coverage, but no README or source excerpts document runtime behavior or links between lessons; edges therefore represent the documented curriculum order, not software calls.

Main entry points: [`99 - Questions`](https://github.com/admijw/aif-c01-aws-certified-ai-practitioner-notes/tree/main/99%20-%20Questions) (Practice Questions), [`01 - Fundamentals of AI and ML/A - Introducing Basic AI and ML Concepts.md`](https://github.com/admijw/aif-c01-aws-certified-ai-practitioner-notes/blob/main/01%20-%20Fundamentals%20of%20AI%20and%20ML/A%20-%20Introducing%20Basic%20AI%20and%20ML%20Concepts.md) (AI and ML Concepts), [`01 - Fundamentals of AI and ML/B - The Machine Learning Pipeline.md`](https://github.com/admijw/aif-c01-aws-certified-ai-practitioner-notes/blob/main/01%20-%20Fundamentals%20of%20AI%20and%20ML/B%20-%20The%20Machine%20Learning%20Pipeline.md) (ML Pipeline), [`01 - Fundamentals of AI and ML/C - AWS Managed AI ML Services and Applications.md`](https://github.com/admijw/aif-c01-aws-certified-ai-practitioner-notes/blob/main/01%20-%20Fundamentals%20of%20AI%20and%20ML/C%20-%20AWS%20Managed%20AI%20ML%20Services%20and%20Applications.md) (AWS AI Services)
