Overview

12.5 Hours of Video Instruction

This course contains everything you need to know to get the most out of generative AI for developer productivity and effectiveness.

Overview:

Generative AI for Developers video collection is based on three video courses that give you everything you need to develop coding with generative AI and learn how to use Generative AI techniques effectively.

This master class includes the following courses:

  • Learn GitHub Copilot by Example
  • Generative AI for Python Developers
  • ChatGPT Prompt Engineering Essentials

GitHub Copilot is the tool that software developers have long dreamed of—and dreaded. Put simply, it’s AI that can write code. Of course, this doesn’t mean that developers will go away, but rather that their jobs will change dramatically in the same way that weavers’ or farmers’ jobs changed dramatically during the industrial revolution. For developers to remain relevant, they must now focus their attention not on simply writing code but leveraging these new technologies to dramatically improve their efficiency.

InLearn GitHub Copilot by Example expert author and trainer Shaun Wassell shows how to use GitHub Copilot for code-writing, including several real-world examples to show it in action.

The new pair programming engines such as Copilot can write code alongside human developers. This process empowers programmers to focus their attention not only on simply writing code but leveraging these new technologies to dramatically improve their efficiency. This course gives you a comprehensive understanding of how Generative AI can be used in Python development, from basic script writing to complex data analysis, and how these tools can improve efficiency, creativity, and code quality.

Generative AI for Python Developers equips Python developers with the skills to use Generative AI tools like ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot to enhance their coding practices. It covers how to incorporate Generative AI into basic script writing, web development, data analysis with Jupyter, and test-driven development—all with practical exercises to solidify learners' understanding.

In an era where AI-driven communication is shaping industries, mastering prompt engineering not only empowers you to harness the full potential of tools like ChatGPT but also positions you at the forefront of innovative AI applications, ensuring you're equipped with the skills to lead and innovate in your respective domain.

While the possibilities of generative AI tools such as ChatGPT are endless, the number of situations you need to master to use them effectively is surprisingly small. In ChatGPT Prompt Engineering Essentials, we'll cover each of these situations in detail, and along the way, we'll build a collection of effective templates that you can use to maximize your productivity when using these tools.

Prerequisite:

  • A basic knowledge of programming and how code works, i.e., program structure, writing and running a program, experience with GitHub.
  • Knowledge of Python Basics
