The following is a recommended 1 week day-by-day course of study for an ambassador at your organization, a list of baseline topics and technologies to explore, culminating in advice on how to conduct a roll-out plan within your organization shepherded by your designated ambassador.
We very consciously decided to be specific in terms of a recommended time and resource investment, but feel free to adjust as your organization may see fit.
We also designed this plan as a hands-on immersion: as a team, we did not see our understanding and adoption of these new tools grow until we stepped away from reading the dizzying array of articles and opinions, and instead opened a code editor and began experimenting ourselves.
Feel free to scan the materials upfront to understand their scope and then dig in!
Your Ambassador, a Plan, and Intro Videos
We start by helping you identify the basic requirements of an internal ambassador, provide an overview of the plan, and provide an approachable introductory video to introduce generative AI and large language models.
Key Concepts and Engaging ChatGPT
Day two is about reviewing key concepts related to GenAI and Large Language Models, and becoming accustomed to furthering your exploration using ChatGPT as your research assistant.
On day three, it’s time to write some code! We start by setting up a simple dev environment (if your ambassador does not already have one), and/or a Jupyter Notebook to dive into the first 3rd party course to introduce the OpenAI API and the basic GenAI concepts of summarizing, inferring, transforming and expanding - all text related.
