Developers and customers will likely start to ask you questions about how your dev tool integrates with AI or how you plan to leverage AI so it pays to know the details – like that "AI" is really a bunch of different kinds of things, like text-to-speech, stable diffusion, knowledge mining, etc. not just generative pre-trained transformers (oh, that's what GPT stands for?! Also what even are vector databases? Oh, they just... store an array of numbers 'real good like'? Okay then!)
Luckily, you don't need to take some Hypemaster General's course and pay $500.
DeepLearning.ai is an EdTech company focused on providing AI education and they just dropped 4 new courses you might be interested in taught by industry experts.
These are free to enroll in for a limited time:
Building Systems with the ChatGPT API
In this course, taught by OpenAI’s Isa Fulford together with Andrew Ng, you’ll learn to build complex applications using large language models (LLMs). This course takes you beyond prompting, and explains how to break a complex task down to be carried out via multiple API calls to an LLM. You’ll also learn to evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs for safety, relevance, and accuracy.
ChatGPT Prompt Engineering for Developers
In this course, taught by OpenAI’s Isa Fulford together with Andrew Ng, you will learn how to use a large language model (LLM) to quickly build new and powerful applications. Using the OpenAI API, you’ll be able to quickly build capabilities that learn to innovate and create value in ways that were cost-prohibitive, highly technical, or simply impossible before now.
LangChain for LLM Application Development
Taught by LangChain CEO Harrison Chase and Andrew Ng, this course teaches the powerful open-source tool LangChain, which makes building many complex LLM applications easy. You’ll learn to use memories to store conversations, create sequences of operations to manipulate data, and use the agents framework as a reasoning engine that can decide for itself what steps to take next.
How Diffusion Models Work
Taught by Lamini CEO Sharon Zhou, this technical course teaches the concepts behind diffusion-based image generation. You’ll learn to build a diffusion model in PyTorch from the ground up, and see how to start with an image of pure noise and refine it iteratively to generate an image. You’ll also learn about advanced techniques that can accelerate the image generation process by about 10x.
Have a lovely day,
