About the Course

Agentic AI is a type of AI that combines Generative AI with tools and actions, allowing us to build "agents" to assist us with everyday tools like Gmail, Office365, Google Sheets, Salesforce, etc. These agents can perform tasks on our behalf, such as updating a spreadsheet or sending an email. There are classes that teach these Agentic AI concepts, but they are geared towards programmers. If you aren't a programmer, they won't teach you how to build agents to help with your daily tasks. This class will teach you how to use ChatGPT and Zapier to build your own agents to help prioritize tasks, keep track of expenses, plan meals and shopping lists, etc. These won't be tools that require you to cut and paste the results back into an email; these will be tools that can directly create a draft email and put it into your email account or allow you to snap a picture of a receipt on the go and have it show up in a spreadsheet. These agents can automate and take action for you. By the end of this class, not only will you understand state-of-the-art aspects of Agentic AI, but you will have built your own Travel Expense Agent. Your agent will be able to take a picture of a receipt or a description of an expense and catalog it into a Google Sheet. It will check your expense with another agent for completeness, ensure the expense isn't already in the spreadsheet, and even draft an email to your administrator with a simple reimbursement report. This course will transform the way you work....

Dr. Jules White was a great instructor. Easy to follow and understand. Zapier was updated since this course but I was able to navigate it to achieve the right response in my custom GPT.

It’s incredibly useful, and the content is well-organized and practical. The professor is excellent. I’m confident the knowledge gained here will be valuable moving forward.

The course desperately needs more written lessons, step by step instructions, in print form, for setting up the GPT with Zapier, and, sadly, even then it's bound to be frustrating because Zapier is a very finicky platform that will just intermittently stop working with ChatGPT, which is a huge pain when trying to complete the project! The issues slowed me down considerably, because you would never know if the issue was on my end, or on Zapier's end. (I would estimate that 75%+ of the snags were entirely Zapier). I liked the lectures and learned a lot from watching them, but I can not recommend the course as a hands on guided learning process. On the plus side, I'm now duplicating the project with n8n, which is supposed to be a much more reliable platform and is the "go to" platform today for AI agents ans automations.

Close to 52$ just to showcase, how to put some instructions into the prompts on chatgpt, I thought some background architecture & LLMS used in agentic will be discussed, dont waste money and time on this, coursera courses are decreasing quality.
