Frequently asked questions
- What will I learn in this on-device AI course?
- You learn to run AI models directly on a device with no cloud call, using Apple Foundation Models in iOS apps, Gemini Nano and AICore on Android, and MLX for local inference on Apple Silicon. The path also covers quantization, tool calling, and when to fall back to a cloud model like Claude.
- Who is this course for?
- It is built for software and AI engineers, especially iOS, Android, and Mac developers who want to add private, low-latency AI features that work without a server. The level is advanced and assumes you already ship production app code.
- Do I need coding experience to take this course?
- Yes. This is an advanced engineering path that works with Swift on iOS, Android system APIs, and Python tooling such as MLX and Ollama, so you should already be comfortable building and running app code.
- How long is the course and is there a certificate?
- The path has 4 chapters totaling about 78 minutes, with a 12-minute orientation and three 22-minute platform chapters on Apple, Android, and Mac. You earn a certificate of completion after finishing every chapter.
- Is this course free?
- No, On-Device & Edge AI is a paid path included in the AI Academy subscription. It sits in the AI for Engineers track alongside the other AI engineering paths.
