About the Course

This course is for all enthusiasts and practitioners with a genuine interest in the rapidly developing field of generative AI, which is transforming our world. The course focuses on the core concepts and generative AI models that form the building blocks of generative AI. You will explore deep learning and large language models (LLMs). You will learn about GANs, VAEs, transformers, and diffusion models; the building blocks of generative AI. You will become familiar with the concept of foundation models. You will also learn about the capabilities of pre-trained models and platforms for AI application development and how foundation models use them to generate text, images, and code. You will explore different generative AI platforms like IBM watsonx and Hugging Face. Hands-on labs, included in the course, provide an opportunity to explore the use cases of generative AI through the IBM generative AI classroom and platforms like IBM watsonx. In this course, you will explore different models, such as IBM Granite, OpenAI GPT, Google flan, and Meta Llama. You will also hear from expert practitioners about the capabilities, applications, and tools of generative AI.  ...

I would not consider this a beginner course.

I completed this course within the Generative AI Fundamentals specialization. As the previous courses, this one in principal includes some interesting information. Although, the way the course is prepared I would not recommned to do it. The specialization and also this course are incredibliy repetitive, countless times it lists very basic applications of GenAI (answer questions, write essays, summarize text, etc.). There seems to be no clear structure, topics being re-introduce over and over again, the same products being re-introduced on a very superficial level over and over again. And in between that suddenly there is a single slide introducing an interesting and very complex concept, without describing it much more than "is great to generate text and images". I gave 2 stars instead of one because I actually learned a few things, but the three courses of this specialization should be much better aligned and organized.

The narration is way too fast. You can neither assimilate what is being told nor remember. You have to read the transcript in detail to really understand. Content is very good. A 4 stars for the content.
