Course Philosophy
As I wrote in my article "We Ask AI to Do Things", success with AI requires aligning three critical elements:
How we ask - strategic prompt engineering
The AI we use - must match the task
What we are trying to accomplish - real problems
This course teaches you to master all three. You will learn to align prompts, models, and objectives to build AI products that actually work and solve real problems.
