Dive into AI & LLMs

Join us for a hands-on session exploring the world of AI and Large Language Models (LLMs). We'll cover key concepts like training vs inference, prompt engineering, fine-tuning, and LLM workflows. Learn how models understand language, reason through prompts (zero-shot, few-shot, chain of thought), and power real-world applications. We'll also touch on multimodal AI, practical challenges, and the future of AI—plus a live demo!
