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....

Dr. White’s course on prompt engineering for ChatGPT has been an outstanding learning experience. He very carefully designed a series of lectures, examples, and activities to build upon domain knowledge and skills as well as to inspire creativity. The solution approach and prompt design templates are incredibly powerful elements that we can take with us. He demonstrated how to combine and evolve our prompts to achieve practical, real-world tasks and research—encouraging us to collaborate in the fast-paced generative AI ecosystem. I hope that Dr. White decides to design a follow-up course that tracks new developments in this domain. Extreme thanks!

A really fun and insightful course. Highly recommend. I’ve some years prior experience of both conversational AI and prompt engineering, and authored one of the first ‘ChatGPT for beginner’ books available on Amazon. That said, I learned so much from Jules's approach and creative thinking. Clearly he must run real fun classes - I can’t wait to network and exchange experiences as some of the prompting methods he shared will save you valuable time and effort. A must do course in my humble opinion, I am so happy i decided to enroll and complete, and benefit from this excellent course.

I totally enjoyed this course and it was the first time I completed the course on Coursera. I had taken an earlier course but found that quite boring. Dr Jules White is a great teacher and I am grateful I took this course. He explained the prompts in ways that were easy to understand and the assignments were fun to complete. It helped that I had prior basic knowledge of ChatGPT so it was definitely eye-opening to discover how much more I could accomplish with ChatGPT now that I am armed with advanced ideas and more importantly, the rationale behind the prompts.

I have been using ChatGPT with mixed success for about a year and wanted to take my performance to the next level. This course was well laid out and well explained. Knowledge built on knowledge so assignments, at first quite easy, became a little harder as the course progressed. I found the course insightful and will definitely use it in my everyday work life and already feel more confident in using it more effectively. I actually used some real work challenges as examples to work through on some of the assignments so this, in itself, was quite helpful.

Gostei muito desse curso e da forma como foi apresentado. Sua didática é excelente e as aulas foram muito agradáveis e ao mesmo tempo muito ricas de informação. Proporciona uma visão bem ampla do uso de uma IA Generativa como o ChatGPT (LLM) que é muito mais poderoso do que se divulga normalmente e vai muito além de gerar textos e pesquisas. Quem tiver uma curiosidade de entender até onde isso pode ir e o quanto podemos usá-lo nas nossas áreas de trabalho, vale a pena dar uma conferida nesse curso do Coursera que é feito pela Vanderbilt University

As a medical reserscher and medical writer with >30 years of experince, I was really stunned to see what the capabilities of LLMs are.

Jules made a great work of explaining and giving examples.

About halfway through the course I was able to put ChatGPT to work on a real work-related issue.

With its help, I was able in fact to complete in 7 hours a job that would have required at least 20. Now, after completing the course, I belive that - by applying some more complex formatting - I could have shaved another couple of hours...
