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.

The course will give you a primer that covers what Generative AI is, basic prompt engineering, and how you can innovate with Generative AI. You will learn the ACHIEVE framework for using Generative AI to innovate in a way that augments and amplifies human creativity and problem solving rather than supplanting people. You will learn how Generative AI is going to replace the GUI and programming as our dominant interface to computing and why you will be using it every day at work.
