exactly! This is the reason why I recommend this course to my friends and colleagues who ask me about how to get into AI/ML. I tell them to do this course first to get idea about what all is possible. The version 2 (which you do at your own pace) provides the theory/maths behind it.
While coursera/Andrew Ng course are(were?) classic and have great content - I personally prefer Jeremy's style and this code-first approach to Deep Learning (yes, DL != ML != AI but that's not the point).
