About the course

What you will study

Generative AI is the branch of artificial intelligence that creates new text, images, code and more from simple instructions called prompts. In this course we study how these tools work, how to use them effectively, and how to use them responsibly in our studies and future careers.

Each module has its own lecture notes and, where applicable, an assignment. New modules are added to the table below as the course progresses.
