🟢 WHAT WILL I BE ABLE TO BUILD IN THIS COURSE?

You’ll build a functional application powered by LLM agents to automate a workflow of your choice. Along the way, you'll learn to design agent workflows, and integrate required tools. By the end of the course, you'll have a working MVP ready to showcase in a public demo.

You can see this playlist for examples of what previous students built: https://tinyurl.com/llm-agent-demos

🟢 HOW WILL YOU HELP ME BUILD APPS LIKE THESE IN JUST 7 WEEKS?

This course is all about learning by doing. You do a real project, applying concepts you learn about AI agents with our expert guidance. Specifically:

👨🏽‍🏫 1:1 sessions with the instructors to help you think through bigger picture questions

👨‍🎓 Async and sync sessions with a dedicated TA for constant support, code reviews, and real-time feedback

To help you prepare, we have also curated 70+ hours of content, a "Learning Path" covering everything from product design and coding fundamentals to advanced LLM engineering concepts that you can consume at your own pace, as soon as you sign up. (see the next question for details)

🟢 OK! THAT DOES SOUND FUN, BUT HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE THE RRE-REQUISITES AND I'M READY FOR BUILDING?

That's the most common question we get!

The "Learning Path" we have curated should also give you a good sense of what knowledge we assume as pre-reqs. You should get started on that and then sign up for the course as soon as you feel you are ready:

🟢 I SEE! SO, I'LL DO MY PREP BEFOREHAND, THEN WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT TO HAPPEN DURING?

Think about it like this (since we're developing a product here, eh?): This is a 3-sprint product dev + 1 week of prep for the public demo.

🖌️ SPRINT 1 - DESIGN (weeks 1 & 2)

🔨 SPRINT 2 - DEVELOP (weeks 3 & 4)

🚢 SPRINT 3 - DEPLOY (weeks 5 & 6)

🎭 PUBLIC DEMO (week 7)

In each sprint, you communicate your progress or blockers on Slack, you collaborate on your designs / code on GitHub, you show up to provide weekly project updates and get feedback, and finally you do an end of sprint demo.

🟢 WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE A PROJECT IDEA?

We will have a default project (most probably related to automating data science work) that you can participate in. If your goal is to better internalize the concepts rather than working on a specific idea, you can join that project. We commonly see that people re-take the course in the future to further develop specific ideas they have, and focus on building the foundations the first time they take the course.

🟢 COOL! I'M EXCITED TO GET STARTED, AND A DISCOUNT WOULD REALLY SWEETEN THE DEAL!

Glad to hear that! There are a few options:

🧑🏿‍🤝‍🧑🏼 You can find a buddy or colleague and sign up together. (20% off 2-9 seats | 25% off 10+ seats)

✴️ We often share discount codes with communities (including AISC members - reach out to community@ai.science if you're not part of our slack). So, check in with the communities you are part of.

📆 We regularly hold events and info sessions where we share flash sales discounts valid for a day or two. Join the mailing list on this page to receive notifications about those.
