GenAI, ML and Prompt Engineering Workshop
ANI_427 | Expert-Led Live | Automation and Insights | 3
Course Duration: 4 days
The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is growing in every field, and all businesses are embracing Machine Learning (ML) and Generative AI (GenAI). This workshop covers ML/DL and AI techniques and their applications. We discuss when GenAI is appropriate and when other AI techniques are more suitable for use cases like planning, predictive maintenance, and performance management. We also cover Large Language Models (LLMs), their architecture, and use cases in business. Techniques to adapt or enhance GPT models, such as prompt engineering, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), and fine-tuning, are included. The workshop features exercises to equip you with tools and techniques for creative and informative outputs from LLMs. The workshop can be customized with network-specific use cases.
Intended Audience
Anyone curious about language models and interested in exploring their potential through effective prompting.
