About the Course

ChatGPT and other large language models are going to be more important in your life and business than your smartphone, if you use them right. ChatGPT can tutor your child in math, generate a meal plan and recipes, write software applications for your business, help you improve your personal cybersecurity, and that is just in the first hour that you use it. This course will teach you how to be an expert user of these generative AI tools. The course will show amazing examples of how you can tap into these generative AI tools' emergent intelligence and reasoning, how you can use them to be more productive day to day, and give you insight into how they work. Large language models respond to instructions and questions posed by users in natural language statements, known as “prompts”. Although large language models will disrupt many fields, most users lack the skills to write effective prompts. Expert users, who understand how to write good prompts, are orders of magnitude more productive and can unlock significantly more creative uses for these tools. This course introduces students to the patterns and approaches for writing effective prompts for large language models. Anyone can take the course and the only required knowledge is basic computer usage skills, such as using a browser and accessing ChatGPT. Students will start with basic prompts and build towards writing sophisticated prompts to solve problems in any domain. By the end of the course, students will have strong prompt engineering skills and be capable of using large language models for a wide range of tasks in their job, business, personal life, and education, such as writing, summarization, game play, planning, simulation, and programming....

Prompt Engineering for ChatGPT has been a great introduction course. I look forward to diving into additional AI courses. I've even joined a Meetup group to continue learning outside of the classroom!

I really loved it, I used chatgpt to understand the videos and I'm glad coursera offers context under the videos, this helped me finish the certificate in not a long time, all it takes is dedication.

Very personable instructor. I especially appreciated his explanations of what AI can and cannot do. It isn't exactly what the mainstream media has told us it is.

An excellent course for those who barely know how to work with ChatGPT. I strongly recommend it in case you don't know how to use ChatGPT it starts from scratch.

This course was great for me. I knew nothing about LLMs going into it, but now feel confident writing basic prompts and even wrote a simple program with ChatGPT.

Educational and fun!! I was not sure though about the grading, I don't think any of it was graded, more like a participation grade. I wish I had it graded.

Great Course. In future courses less emphasis on a specific LLM (i.e. ChatGPT) and instead the importance of practicing with the LLM of the users choice.
