The video introduces conditional probability, explaining how it allows reasoning about outcomes based on partial information. Using a dice example, it demonstrates how additional information can change probability calculations. Real-world scenarios, such as medical diagnosis and radar detection, illustrate the concept further. The video concludes with a preview of formalizing conditional probability in mathematical notation.
