Course overview

Taught by a Conversational AI Engineer, this course will teach you how to use Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT for your own purposes. You'll learn all about Prompt Design and Fine-Tuning using data scraped from Reddit or using your own data sets.

What you'll learn

  • Fully understand the capabilities and limitations of the most popular and best publicly-available language model: ChatGPT
  • The current and potential use cases for ChatGPT and other Large Language Models (LLMs)
  • Learn how to use ChatGPT effectively to accomplish your tasks efficiently
  • Learn the emerging discipline of Prompt Design and how it applies to text-based LLMs and image generators

The release of ChatGPT has taken the world by storm... but how does it actually work? Is it really artificial intelligence?

Well that's what this course is all about. But first let's cover some basics:

What is ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a Large Language Model.

What are Large Language Models (LLMs)?

They're a type of machine learning model that uses deep learning algorithms to process and understand natural language.

That's a lot of fancy words, what the heck does that mean?

These models learn patterns and relationships in language by being "trained" on absolutely huge amounts of text (i.e. data) from the internet.

Got it! So what do I need this course for?

This course is designed to give you a deep understanding of how to use LLMs like ChatGPT, and how they work under-the-hood. That means you'll learn about concepts like Prompt Design and Fine-Tuning so that you understand how models are trained and even how to train your own model.

You'll even get to see examples of LLMs being implemented.

This way you can make your own decision about whether ChatGPT is truly artificial intelligence or just a fancy text generator. Or maybe somewhere in between.

What we can guarantee is that this course will make you knowledgeable in all the core topics underlying ChatGPT and the actual tech behind all the hype.

No bias. Just pure knowledge and fundamentals.
