Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The aims of the course are:
> Understanding Generative AI Concepts:
-- Provide a basic understanding of the Neural Networks Architecture underlying Sequence2Sequence and Generative Models
-- Provide a comprehensive understanding of generative AI concepts and tools, including generative models for text, images and speech data.
> Practical Skills Development:
-- Learn basics of Prompt Engineering
-- Use popular Python LLM frameworks like LangChain and LLamaIndex
-- Use Generative AI models using Open Source Models from Hugging Face and proprietary APIs like OpenAI ChatGPT.

> Applications and Use Cases:
-- Explore real-world applications and use cases of generative AI across different industries, such as image synthesis, text generation, and sound processing.
> Ethical Considerations:
-- Discuss ethical considerations related to generative AI, including issues like bias, fairness, and responsible AI deployment.

Content will cover, but will not be limited to: Social, Technical and Practical aspects of GenAI; LLMs and other Generative Models; LLMs and GenAI for Humanities; Prompt Engineering Techniques; Python Frameworks; Few-shots learning; Fine Tuning models; Using APIs; working with Images; working with speech data; working with tabular data, Large Action Models - Agents.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Evaluation will be mainly through individual and group hands-on assignments and a final capstone project. Participation in the class discussion and activities and an equivalent amount of extra-class dedication to the materials shall be enough to succeed in the course.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

Attendance is required; regular participation is the key to completing the course; all students must provide their computing environment; homework assignments must be submitted on time (some can be completed later as a part of the final project, but this must be discussed with the instructor whenever the issue arises); the final project must be submitted on time.
Previous knowledge on the Python Programming Language, however not strictly required, is highly recommended.

Prüfungsstoff

There is no examination for the course.
