About the Course

This course is designed to enhance your skills by integrating AI chatbots as pair programmers in your development process. You’ll learn about how large language models (LLMs) work and how this general-purpose technology can be applied to common software development tasks to help boost productivity, creativity, and support you in your tasks as a developer. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Understand the differences between machine learning and traditional software development - Describe how large language models generate text - Prompt an LLM to assist in the tasks that make up the software developer role - Guide an LLM to complete a task in a specific way by writing detailed prompts and iterating to improve output - Leverage the depth of software development knowledge encoded in an LLM by prompting it to assume specific job roles or personas - Write code quickly using an LLM as a pair-coding partner - Analyze code for efficiency, security, and performance using an LLM This course assumes you have a background in software development, but are new to using LLMs as part of your development process. By knowing how machine learning systems work, and having an understanding of how they can be applied in software development, you’ll be able to use them more effectively to support your growth and work as a developer or engineer....

Excellent course. As always, Professor Moroney's classes are very engaging and rich in high-level content. It is frustrating that the LLM sometimes forgets previously given prompts and instructions.

Lawrence's unique style provides tremendous insights on crafting prompts and techniques to get the most out of LLMs, producing modular coding and robust, reliable, and highly efficient software.

I took the first course of the series of 3 but it really was not what I expected, at the beginning topics of how to use chatgpt to generate, improve, document code, etc. were covered - this is so simple, you don't need a course to ask gpt4 to improve an algorithm. But shortly after, I felt that in the following modules too much time was spent teaching lists, trees and graphs, it is as if out of nowhere the course completely changed its course, losing all focus, in the end to finish the course I had to present an assessment that had nothing to do with AI, although AI was used to solve it, it seemed more like a graph assessment from my computer science major than anything else, I didn't like the content of the course at all so I didn't I kept going.
