This course teaches web developers to build apps using OpenAI's API, helping them take their first steps as an AI Engineers. Learners will get hands-on practice with both the GPT-4 and Dall-E APIs, using OpenAI's JavaScript SDK.

In the first project, MoviePitch, you will get a primer on the OpenAI API and harness the power of artificial intelligence to generate ideas and images. In our second project, KnowItAll, we’ll move to the ChatGPT-4 model and get to grips with building chatbots - one of the most common uses of AI for web devs. Finally, we will fine-tune our chatbot in the third project. Fine-tuning is where you upload a dataset to OpenAI and use it to train a model. Doing this allows the chatbot to answer questions specific to your data - a critical skill when working with AI.

Learn the essential concepts of AI Engineering, including how to interact with APIs such as OpenAI.

not very practical at the end using Cloudflare and Polygon; rest were very good

A great course to start building AI Apps but I found one thing that lacked, and it's nothing is provided that's downloadable, like transcript etc.
