Generative AI & LLMs Challenges
Generative AI & LLMs challenges put you inside the work of building with large language models. You'll develop skills in prompt patterns, few-shot prompting, chain-of-thought, and LLM API integration, learning how these models behave before you scale them.
From there you'll handle the harder edges — RAG architectures, vector database basics, fine-tuning, and prompt versioning — putting LLM guardrails and LLM evaluation around every deployment the way AI teams actually do. Each challenge you solve earns a verified credential you can share with recruiters.
