AI for Python Application Development
In this 4-day course, students learn how to utilize popular AI API toolkits to jumpstart, create, and fix Python projects. Projects include chatbots, web apps, transforming datasets, building visualizations, code reviews, packaging projects, and writing documentation.
By the end of this course, students should have a clear understanding of how to control the APIs behind three of the leading AI tool sets, add AI APIs to their Python development workflows, use AI to identify and improve overall security, as well as fix broken code.
Direct access to the AI Platform is not required. All traffic to and from AI Platforms is provided through the training provider.
All students will receive a certificate upon completion of this course.
