Generative AI & Large Language Models

Build with the most powerful AI technology of our generation.

GPT, RAG, LangChain, and building AI apps.

What You'll Learn

Understand transformer architecture: attention, positional encoding, multi-head attention
Compare and use leading LLMs: GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, Llama
Master prompt engineering: zero-shot, few-shot, chain-of-thought
Fine-tune LLMs on custom datasets with LoRA / QLoRA
Build RAG systems with vector databases (Pinecone, Chroma)
Create AI agents and tool-using workflows with LangChain
Deploy a production-ready LLM application
