What's included

1 video2 readings2 assignments1 ungraded lab

You build an end-to-end AI-powered insights application that combines ensemble modeling with LLM-driven explanation generation. You train and evaluate an ensemble model to predict customer health scores, extract feature importance, and integrate a large language model to generate natural language explanations for each prediction. The final deliverable is a functioning application with a simple interface and technical documentation suitable for a development team.
