Introduction

 This one-day course is specifically designed to provide learners with a comprehensive understanding of Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) technology and how it can be utilised to enhance business outcomes. Learners will acquire a deep understanding of GPT at both a team and organisational level, and will learn practical steps to initiate GPT projects. This includes working with GPT-based models, fine-tuning them, deploying them, and seamlessly integrating them into various applications.
Throughout the course, learners will be exposed to a variety of practical use cases for GPT models, such as chatbots, content generation, translation, and sentiment analysis. They will learn how to apply these use cases to drive business growth and achieve success.

Moreover, the GPT Course incorporates a series of hands-on exercises and projects, enabling learners to apply their knowledge and develop practical skills.
The course is designed to ensure that learners stay up to date with the latest advancements in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), and that they remain relevant and knowledgeable in their profession. By attaining these learning outcomes, learners will be well-equipped to apply their knowledge and skills to real-world projects involving GPT-based AI systems. They will also be able to contribute to the advancement of natural language processing and AI technologies in their respective fields.
 
 
 

 
 
Upon completion of the GPT course, learners would be able to:
(1) Understand the GPT architecture, its history, and evolution from the original GPT to the latest GPT-4.
(2) Acquire a solid foundation in language models, their role in natural language processing, and their applications in various domains.
(3) Acquire practical skills in working with GPT models, including fi ne-tuning, deployment, and integration into various applications.
(4) Apply GPT models to solve real-world problems in areas like chatbots, content generation, translation, sentiment analysis, and question-answering systems.
(5) Understand and address the ethical concerns surrounding AI and language models, such as bias, privacy, and potential misuse.
(6) Deploy GPT models in production environments.
(7) List the current limitations of GPT models and identify potential areas for future research and development in natural language processing and AI
(8) Develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills by working with GPT models to tackle complex problems and challenges
