About the Course

We see lots of news reports of Generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT, making mistakes and producing inaccurate information. Many of these mistakes happen because humans use the tools in the wrong way - trying to solve unsuitable problems and not thinking about risk. Hallucination isn't a bug, it's a feature when you approach problems correctly. This course teaches techniques for determining if a problem fits Generative AI's capabilities, framing problems to reduce risk, prompt engineering for trust, and appropriate human engagement in the process. Students learn concrete prompt designs, how to check outputs, how to use Generative AI for ideation and creation, ways to augment human skills, and more ethical, beneficial applications. The course will show how you can: - Leverage prompt engineering techniques to generate more reliable outputs - Master methods to verify and validate outputs - Frame problems in alternative ways to reduce risk - Apply generative AI for creative ideation - Use Generative AI in ways that augment rather than replace human reasoning and creativity...

Within the specialization track, I felt as though this class could focus more on impact-driving knowledge, but overall, I am delighted with my purchase and new understanding of the subject matter.

Jules is a great Teacher. Takes the time to go over the subjects step by step. I will recommend the specialization 100%. This particular course should be the first one to take in the specialization to give you an idea.

More theoretical than technical. This course really does teach how to think before using Generative AI.

The only thing I gained from this course is the awareness that ChatGPT can be used to foster creativity. Besides that, it's pure propaganda! I don't know who and how much paid the instructor, but this course should be completely removed from the Coursera platform. Talking about how AI won't cause people to lose jobs and that it's just scaremongering is pure nonsense! I lost my job due to AI, just like friends around me. No, not everyone will find a new job to replace the current one. And while AI facilitates many useful things, the quantity of negative, even tragic, consequences is significantly greater! People fall into depression, commit suicide. Artificial Intelligence will only deepen this crisis, and I have no doubt about it – it's already happening! Wake up, people! Stop spreading some sick narrative that has no reflection in reality!

I've mastered some amazing techniques using AI that have seriously boosted how effective I am at my job and in coming up with new ideas. I'm really good at giving AI just the right instructions to get back useful and reliable results. I've also learned how to check that these results make sense and are right. Plus, I can now look at problems from different angles to avoid possible issues. AI has become an awesome partner in thinking up creative stuff, and it's helping me think and create even better without taking over my role. This whole experience has been super positive and has opened up so many new opportunities for me.

Trustworthy Generative AI should be essential for anyone trying to improve their understanding of how to maximize the use of AI and learn to think of Artificial Intelligence more as Augmented Intelligence. The content here will help anyone successfully get started in thinking of Large Language Models like ChatGPT, Claude, Bard, etc, more as exoskeletons of the mind, rather than replacements for human intelligence. Learn to make yourself irreplaceable in your job by mastering Trustworthy Generative AI

Very informative. Out of all the generative AI courses I've taken, they've all talked about responsibility and ethics, but this was the only one to actually point out cost/benefit analyses of using it, while also pointing out possibilities for human harm, and also, surprisingly, it's the only one that specifically points out that generative AI is NOT a place to get facts, and that you should, in fact, do a regular search.

Great course to learn about prompt engineering patterns, appropriate use of tools, ways to avoid risk and get the most out of Ai tools. Jules is an engaging and knowledgeable teacher with an obvious passion for this field. The videos can be completed more quickly by viewing at 1.5 speed. The prompt assignments are not too challenging but get you thinking in the right way. Recommended.

Excellent course to be able to understand opportunities, challenges and risks that Generative AI may represent. Easy to follow even if your background it is not technical because examples and use cases are based on non technical issues. Said this, you will find references to Python and concepts links to Python that are more easily understood if you have some bases around programming.

Absolutely outstanding three course Specialization! This course brought me from almost zero knowledge about Generative AI to a place where I can now utilize some of its potential and can dive deeper into the amazing opportunities it will provide in the future! Dr White is a fantastic facilitator and the courses kept my attention all the way through.

Debemos aprender qué se puede hacer con ChatGPT y qué no. NO ES UN COOGLE VITAMINADO. Es muy importante conocer los usos recomendados, lo que nos puede ofrecer para entonces sí poderle sacar el mejor rendimiento. Es un curso que pone los pies en la tierra y que sitúa las cosas en su sitio. MUY RECOMENDABLE

The casual but structured way Jules brings the course made it highly enjoyable and this helped to maintain attention and get the maximum out of the course. I feel that what I learned made a great difference in preparing to complete case interviews and landing my dream job in cloud / AI.

Really clear and helpful, and fast paced. Jules moves through the content quickly and clearly, using great examples. He doesn't get bogged down in academic comparisons, his approach is based on more real life use cases with wide applicability.

The shortest and most useful of all the classes; but only if you take the other two classes in this offering. My life is better for having made an effort to understand Augmented Intelligence.
