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....

A lot of fun, and it takes you from the basics of prompt engineering to complex but extremely useful patterns and formulae. Grab this course and you'll be "programming" in plain English in no time.

Phenomenal content about prompt engineering. I was highly impressed with the amount of knowledge that Jules White put together. The examples were practical and easy to follow. Thank you!

This course was something of a disappointment. The professor is a bit long-winded, and never did show how to ask a simple question, then a follow-up question, then a question after that, etc. to get the response you want and have a conversation go in a good direction. That's one of the most basic uses of ChatGPT. A lot of the "patterns" that he discusses seem more appropriate if you want to build your own chatbot, taking in lots of data from users or sifting through lots of internal data. I can see why his background is in computer science, because he seemed to focus more on the technical aspects of pattern after pattern rather than issues having to do with wording and critical thinking as you have conversations with ChatGPT.

Professor is engaging and provides clear explanations. The examples however are a bit limiting in their applicability to other areas (hard to see how to generalize them to other useful contexts). The examples were entertaining and interesting to follow, but perhaps that should not be the goal. Perhaps more information should have been offered on how to bring other tools into the chat to help solve problems. I guess it's ok overall given that the professor had to distill information in an emerging field.

The content was interesting and the instructor was very knowledgeable but I found the content very repetitive, the videos were too long and I thought that a lot of the concepts could have been explained in shorter videos or in a shorter course overall.

This course is incredibly fascinating. I learn a lot of magnificent things. But one thing that I face, the links given in the reading material are not working. Please check those links.
