AI INNOVATION UNLEASHED: NAVIGATING THE TERRAIN OF PROMPT ENGINEERING

Course Overview

AI, powered by models like GPT, is revolutionizing numerous industries and transforming the way we work and live. However, to fully leverage the potential of AI, end users need to possess the skills to effectively interact with these advanced models. This intensive 2-day course on GPT Prompt Engineering for End Users is designed to equip participants with the knowledge and practical skills to harness the power of GPT through prompt engineering.

Course participants will gain an understanding of the fundamentals of AI, with a specific focus on GPT, learn how to formulate effective prompts to communicate with the model, and explore various techniques to optimize GPT model outputs. Through a combination of lectures, hands-on exercises, and real-world examples, participants will develop a solid foundation in prompt engineering and enhance their ability to generate valuable insights and solutions using GPT.

Course Objectives

• Understand the key concepts and principles of AI, particularly GPT, and its applications in various domains.
• Formulate clear and effective prompts to communicate with the GPT model.
• Apply prompt engineering techniques to improve the quality and relevance of GPT model outputs.
• Evaluate and fine-tune GPT model performance through prompt modifications.
• Utilize popular AI tools and platforms, such as OpenAI's Playground.
• Address ethical considerations and biases associated with GPT and other AI systems.
• Explore advanced topics in prompt engineering, including techniques like few-shot learning and conditional generation.

Pre-requisites
