TL;DR: Good class with bad professor. This class was one of the most relevant classes I took this semester and taught me a lot about AI. HOWEVER. Rust is an interesting professor, to say the least. First and foremost, the required textbook for this class is a book he co-wrote with his wife, and you have to read it in order to pass his pop quizzes (which are worth 30% of your grade). You'll give two presentations in this class (which are worth 15% of your grade each) and the rubric isn't comprehensive at all. He'll grade said presentations based on his opinions on the subject you're presenting on, so if you mention something he disagrees on, he'll sometimes take away points. He can be rude and inconsiderate, and you can tell he's kind of a snob. So, if you want to learn about AI but potentially suffer, take this class. I don't regret it, but it caused a lot of suffering.

The course is very easy in terms of content. The content is generic and as long as you read all of the readings he provides, an A is definitely possible. However, if you miss anything he will not be lenient at all. Some of the quizzes are also very specific on the readings. For example, the name of someone mentioned once in the reading is fair game. The class overall is awfully boring but can become a study period pretty easily.

Nice guy and the class is pretty easy. Gives pop quizzes every couple classes so you are forced to go to class. Doesn't give retakes if you missed the quiz. Lectures are boring, talks about his work and what he has done in his life. I would do other homework during his class. Two group presentations that are about 20 min long, doesn't give much guidance on how to do them. Very lenient with grading though, most groups got 13/14 out of 15 for presentations, even though he would correct groups on their data multiple times during the presentation. Take him if you want an easy A.

Content is fine but pretty boring, talks about himself and his own work a lot, give these ridiculous pop quizzes and doesn’t offer any retakes.
