This course provides a foundational understanding of OpenAI’s offerings, focusing on the basics of interacting with OpenAI’s API to leverage powerful AI models like GPT (Generative Pretrained Transformer). It covers the principles of AI and machine learning that underpin OpenAI’s models, the ethical considerations in AI usage, and the practical steps for setting up API keys, handling API requests, and interpreting responses. Participants learn to construct basic queries, understand the parameters that control the models’ responses, and integrate these AI capabilities into applications to automate tasks, generate text, or create images. The course aims to impart the knowledge needed to begin integrating OpenAI’s AI models into various software projects, emphasizing the understanding of model capabilities, limitations, and responsible usage guidelines.
