This new course will introduce more advanced topics in Generative AI, including a deeper look at some of the tools we touch on in the intro course as well as introducing new topics like agentic AI and the broader aspects of a modern AI workflow. We’ll go over deterministic workflows versus autonomous agents, advanced prompting, schema-constrained outputs, and more to take your generative AI knowledge to the next level and help you get the most out of the power of Generative AI as a coder. After taking this course, you should be able to use and understand Generative AI beyond its use in chatbots. It is strongly recommended to have some knowledge of generative AI, NLP, and Python before taking this course.

Prerequisites: Intermediate Python skills and a basic understanding of generative AI – if you do not have any background in generative AI, you are encouraged to register for the accelerated Intro to Generative AI class offered before this course to get up to speed on the basics.
