Generative AI Engineer Masterclass

On Udemy

About this course

Build a practical foundation in generative AI engineering by creating Python applications that combine language models, document retrieval, tools, and image inputs.

The Generative AI Engineer Masterclass is designed for beginners, students, aspiring AI engineers, and developers who want hands-on experience building AI applications. No previous AI experience is required. The course begins with development setup and Python essentials before introducing the components of a generative AI application.

You will learn how to write clear prompts, guide responses with examples, and validate structured outputs. You will explore document chunking, embeddings, vector storage, and retrieval-augmented generation, then build a document question-answering assistant that provides source references and handles missing evidence.

As you progress, you will add a calculator tool, validate its arguments, and understand how bounded agent workflows control execution. You will also prepare image inputs, explore image-description workflows, and learn to distinguish visible observations from uncertain interpretations.

The course covers how to choose between prompting, RAG, and fine-tuning. You will practice preparing consistent training examples, separating datasets, and checking for duplicate prompts without submitting a paid training job.

Through the course’s practical exercises, you will:

  • Build a simple chatbot and structured information extractor.
  • Retrieve relevant passages from course documents.
  • Generate answers supported by available evidence.
  • Validate calculator operations and image inputs.
  • Evaluate answers and investigate failures.
  • Connect features into a final assistant project.
  • Explore web interfaces, environment configuration, and deployment considerations.
