Practical AI

Artificial Intelligence Fundamentals for Practitioners Artificial intelligence helps computers perform tasks by learning from data. For practitioners, grasping a few core ideas makes it easier to build useful and safe systems. Start with a clear task and a plan you can test quickly. Data and models are the two main building blocks. Data quality shapes results more than clever algorithms. A simple baseline often beats a complex solution that is hard to deploy. Prepare data with clear labels, check for gaps, and watch for changes over time that can drift performance. ...

Language Models and Practical NLP Applications Language models are software systems that predict the next word or phrase in a sentence. They learn from large text data and can generate, summarize, translate, and reason about language. In everyday work, these models help with many tasks when you set clear goals and simple rules. They are not magic, but they can save time and support better decisions. What they do well ...
