This workshop offers a comprehensive introduction to the world of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLM), with a special focus on prompt engineering. In an era where AI technologies are increasingly gaining importance, this workshop aims to equip participants with the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively utilize and optimize these technologies.
The event pursues three main objectives:
In terms of content, the workshop covers a broad spectrum, including:
Methodologically, the workshop combines lectures with practical hands-on exercises, followed by discussions in plenary. This approach allows participants to directly apply theoretical knowledge into practice and benefit from the experiences of the group.
This workshop is aimed at professionals, researchers, and interested individuals who wish to deepen their understanding of generative AI and expand their skills in prompt engineering. Participants will be enabled to more efficiently harness the potential of LLM and develop innovative solutions for complex tasks.
Please bring your own laptop.
