This course is very useful for beginners who may wish to go into more depth – or simply understand what LLMs are capable of when a user understands the basics of writing prompts. The videos are clear and the assignments are pretty straightforward but helped me think about uses that I'd never have considered. I'm glad I didn't pay more to learn the basics elsewhere, as I have taken pretty much all I need from this course, for now. Bear in mind that your assignment will be "marked" by a LLM!

I recently completed the prompt engineer course and found it extremely productive. The content was well-structured and covered all the essential aspects of developing effective prompts. The instructor was highly knowledgeable and always ready to clarify doubts. The practical activities were challenging but very rewarding, allowing me to apply what I learned immediately. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in improving their skills in interacting with large language models.

I am an early adopter for AI and this course helped me fine-tune and expand my understanding. I found the knowledge immediately deployable while going through the course. I really enjoyed the practical application aspects of the entire process. It was refreshing that the testing processes in this course were all rooted in the practical application of the knowledge presented which simply reinforced being able to put the knowledge to immediate use. I really enjoyed this course. Thank you.

Dr.Jules White helps his students make steady progress toward their goals through the use of real-world examples. His inclusion of the occasional "error" leads to a deeper understanding of the subject. Although the course is based on ChatGPT, the student is often led to try prompts on other I platforms. This led me to a much broader respect for writing prompts differently for each and for discovering the strengths and challenges of different types of problems. Great educator.

The course structure is well-organized, taking learners from basics to advanced concepts effectively. The instructor's expertise and engaging teaching style contribute to a positive learning experience. Practical examples and real-life applications enhance the course's relevance and applicability. The association with Vanderbilt University adds credibility to the content. To improve, incorporating more interactivity and peer interaction could further enrich the learning process.

I thoroughly enjoyed learning from Dr. White and recommend this course to everyone. His teaching style was so engaging that I couldn't help but stay focused and eager to learn more. You will learn about prompt patterns and techniques using a scaffolding approach, and there are plenty of exercises to try to see what works and what doesn't; it was just fascinating. I couldn't wait for each new lesson to see what he would teach next. Trust me; you won't regret taking this course!

Outstanding material that explained very clearly how to interact with a LLM. The concepts of patterns made a ton of sense. As software engineer I was an avid user of design, analysis and architecture patterns in design and implementation of large-scale systems. I appreciated this course use of patterns as it made a lot of sense.

Dr. White delivered the concepts with ease and persuasion, and made it easy to master the content.

Thank you! I will follow your work on this topic.

I have watched a ton of online courses on Generative AI, and this is pound-for-pound the best prompt engineering course. If you are looking to learn not only how to write great prompts but also to apply highly effective patterns, this is your course. Jules is an excellent teacher as well. I feel like my prompting knowledge moved up to another league after watching this course. Really nicely done, Jules! I am excited to watch the follow-up course on Advanced Data Analysis.

Great Course. It opened the doors the optimize ChtaGPT. Jules is a great teacher and the material provided is superb. I was able to improve 100% a package design thanks to his teaching and understanding CHATGPT. Furthermore I am writing a book and improving my art and other projects thanks to his teachings. The possibilities are endless. I will recommend this course 1000%. As he said this is an instrument to enhance human knowledge,, and creativity if it use correctly.

Exceptional and intriguing course by Dr. White! This course was my first introduction to LLMs and despite having no prior experience with AI, nor a computer science background to draw from I found it very easy to follow. I've already begun utilizing the skills I've acquired through this course to improve and streamline my personal and professional life. A great many thanks to Dr. White and Vanderbilt for offering this course that is sure to benefit many others!

The course was incredibly rewarding. It became progressively more challenging with each module. Although I had some prior knowledge of prompt engineering when I started, by the time I finished, I had reached an entirely new level of understanding. I want to express my gratitude to the course instructor, Dr. White, for presenting the subject in easily digestible segments. Upon completion, I experienced a genuine sense of accomplishment. I would highly recommend it.

Amazing course! Dr. Jules White patiently guides us through the basics, thoroughly exploring various patterns to optimize ChatGPT's output. His detailed explanations make complex concepts easy to grasp. The scientific articles and readings he shared were highly informative and definitely worth reading, providing deeper insights into the topics discussed over the six modules. I started this course out of curiosity, and I’m glad I did – it exceeded my expectations!

I was looking for something to deepen my understanding on the key principles that makes GPT models so successful, but thinking that a practically oriented course like this would not suffice. Fortunately I was wrong. Dr. Jules gives many interesting insights what goes on behind the scenes. The approaches and patterns he demonstrate are very useful for just about anyone that today have started to use GPT in their daily work. I have already found this useful.

An excellent course for those who want to gain a foothold in the world of Prompt Engineering for ChatGPT. The course started from the very basics and went on to build in to more advance prompting that not only works with ChatGPT or GPT4, but also works on other models. At the time of me taking it, the course reflected up to date changes in this fast moving field, showing a degree of care and attention on the part of those who designed it.

I highly recommend this course on prompt engineering. This course totally changed the way I was using ChatGPT. This makes my prompts much more effective and increases the quality of overall output. If you think you are utilizing the power of chatGPT or any other GenAI, you are wrong. With this course and the skills you will gain, it will broaden your horizons, and learning about new prompt patterns certainly makes it worth your time.

Following this course, i was able to ask ChatGPT to write a 5 star review on this course:

Nearly perfect! Clear, concise, informative. Well presented. Catalog of Prompts paper is especially helpful. Concluding references to need for further collaboration, research, and development in patterns for prompt engineering is well taken.

Minor technical glitches on Coursera's end. i.e., instructional videos often stopped before end of presentation. Had to go to Notes to restart many videos from cutoff point.
