Focusing on the core concepts and foundational AI models that form the building blocks of generative AI, this course provides a base to help you build your generative AI skills. Explore deep learning and large language models (LLM) while learning about GANs, VAEs, transformers, and diffusion models, which are the building blocks of generative AI. 

In the course, you'll become familiar with the concept of foundation models, learn about the capabilities of pretrained models and platforms for AI application development, and explore how foundation models use them to generate text, images, and code. You will also explore different generative AI platforms like IBM watsonx and Hugging Face. The included hands-on labs provide an opportunity to explore the use cases of generative AI. In this course, you will explore different models, such as IBM Granite, OpenAI GPT, Google flan, and Meta Llama , and hear from expert practitioners about the capabilities, applications, and tools of generative AI.

This course is designed for everyone an interest in the rapidly developing field of generative AI, which is transforming our world.
