You’ll explore zero-shot, few-shot, role-based, chain-of-thought, reverse, and other prompting approaches. Examples show how to give context, request a clear format, ask follow-up questions, and improve a response. The goal is to write more useful instructions, not to guarantee that AI will always be correct.

Yes, you’ll see examples of ChatGPT text generation, email responses, marketing headlines, prompt revisions, and AI-assisted coding. Quizzes help you check your understanding. The activities focus on applying ideas to common tasks rather than building and deploying a complete AI application.

This generative AI course introduces AI agents, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and fine-tuning so you can understand what they mean. It does not focus on training a model or building a complete AI agent. That makes it more suitable for beginners seeking a clear starting point.

You’ll explore examples involving business writing, meeting notes, marketing ideas, retail, and software development. These uses can help you recognize where AI might support your own tasks. You’ll also learn to review AI output carefully, especially when factual accuracy or fairness matters.

Yes, this course covers hallucinations, incorrect information, bias, fairness, technical limits, and AI safety concerns. Demonstrations include safety refusals and rewriting biased language. This helps you recognize common problems and make better decisions about when to check or question an AI response.

Rather than focusing on one chatbot, this course combines generative AI and prompt engineering with examples of several AI tools and responsible use. You’ll also explore workplace applications and ways to improve prompts. This broader approach makes it useful for beginners who want both the concepts and everyday skills.
