What people are saying

Before taking the course, I was intimidated by AI and unsure of how it could help me in work and life. Mariena taught me so many practical applications for AI tools that I now use it on a regular basis. I feel confident with prompts and have a much better understanding of the current strengths and weaknesses of LLMs.

Mariena is so knowledgeable, and able to share her expertise in a way that is understandable and relatable. I feel more confident using AI to help me with research and ideas. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to keep up the technology movement of today, and not get left behind.
