Course Outline:

Part 1: Introduction to GenAI

The first part of the session will introduce Generative AI and its use cases in various domains such as language generation (Bard, ChatGPT), search engines (Google Search Engine – powered by BERT), and more. The session will also briefly recap the main concepts of machine learning/deep learning, which will be helpful to understand the Generative AI concepts.

The session will then dive deeper into Large Language Models (LLM) and explain the Prompt design/Prompt Engineering techniques used to generate text. The session will also cover popular LLM architectures such as GPT and BERT.

Part 2: Demo

The second part of the session will provide practical demos of the GenAI algorithms in Google Cloud Vertex AI. Participants will learn how to use chat interface, prompt design, prompt tuning in Vertex AI Generative AI Studio.

Course Objective

Participants will understand the basics of Generative AI and how it can be used to generate text in various domains. Participants will also gain hands-on experience in training Generative AI models using Google Cloud’s Vertex AI Generative AI Studio and Model Garden.
