Unleash Your Inner AI with Generative AI
Generative AI has elevated AI into the mainstream and made it the topic of dinner-table conversations everywhere. Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT-4o, Gemini Flash, and Claude Sonnet enable software to do things that were never before possible, from answering natural-language questions with natural-language responses to analyzing images, audio, and video and generating charts and graphs from verbal descriptions. Small Language Models (SLMs) do most of what their LLM counterparts can do and can be hosted locally. Image generators such as Stable Diffusion turn text into eye-popping images.
Are you looking for an on-ramp into AI? Curious to learn how to infuse AI into your apps and business processes and come away with lots of sample code to use in your next project? Bring your laptop and take a deep dive into generative AI in this hands-on workshop. Learn what LLMs and SLMs are, how they work, how to put them over documents and databases, how to extend them, how to fine-tune them, how to use them to build state-of-the-art virtual assistants and implement zero-shot image classifiers, and more.
