Very helpful conceptualizing for me at a beginner level - fantastic breakdown into shorter bite size videos helped also pacing the information and allowing for it to be absorbed.

I am a bit disappointed to be honest. The course starts of with an Agent that is able to communicate with Zapier and do all kinds of cool stuff. So that's what I thought we would do. But we got to learn about general GPTs stuff so feels like I wasted my time.
Too basic
Review for Agentic AI and AI Agents: A Primer for Leaders – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Taking this course was an incredible experience! Agentic AI and AI Agents: A Primer for Leaders provided deep insights into how AI agents function, their real-world applications, and how to leverage them for business and automation. I particularly enjoyed the hands-on approach, which allowed me to apply what I was learning in real-time—especially building a custom GPT and automating workflows. The course structure was clear, engaging, and filled with practical knowledge that I was able to implement immediately. A huge thank you to Dr. Jules White for being such a fantastic teacher! His expertise and engaging teaching style made complex concepts easy to understand and apply. I truly appreciate the effort put into making this course so valuable, and I look forward to attending more of his classes in the future. This course has significantly enhanced my understanding of AI, and I’m excited to continue building AI-driven solutions. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to gain a strong foundation in AI agents and their impact on leadership and business strategy! 🚀
Great course, especially for non-technical folks looking to get a first overview. Of particular interest was his idea of 'inverted interaction,' where we're asking the system to tell us what to do. That's a very helpful reminder that AI agents are supposed to figure out what to do, not just respond to prompts.
Second (last) module is incoherent and stops without delivering on its last promise - to teach how to use your own tools in custom ChatGPT's.
I have really enjoyed learning about Agentic Ai and Custom GPT from Jules White from Vanderbilt University - they are explained in a simple way so that everyone can understand!
It's hard not to be contaminated by Jules' enthusiasm and engagement. He's great at giving context, both zooming out and in as required. Fully recommended.
A course on Agentic AI without providing access to ChatGPT pro is not a course I would recommend to anyone. It's basically a youtube video.
The Instructor did an exceptionally good job of explaining Agentic AI to a non-developer. His enthusiasm kept the modules interesting and his examples did a great job of illustrating his points without getting overly technical. (The only flaw I found in his knowledge was knowing the difference between quote marks and brackets. :-) ) I would highly recommend this course to anyone who not only wants to know about Agentic AI but wants to use it themselves.
Agentic AI and AI Agents: A Primer for Leaders offers a clear and insightful overview of how AI can be strategically leveraged to enhance leadership and decision-making. It provides valuable frameworks for leaders to understand and implement AI-driven solutions effectively in their organizations.
As someone new to the agentic ai world this was the perfect course to get started and build off of my existing knowledge and experience with GPTs. Super simple and easy to understand yet full of very useful information

I found concepts were very clearly taught. Well, thought through examples. Good course for non-technical people.
Very well done beginner course. Course material was the right length and instructions were easy to follow.
Really enjoyed the professor's approach to teaching. Hope to take more of his classes in the future.
This course is a very basic beginner-level course, possibly for a 6th grader. A lot of simple examples have been used to explain the topic, however, it fell short of my expectation. I did not really find much related to Agentic AI.
