IIT Delhi has introduced a new course called the Certificate Programme in Generative AI. This programme is created to meet the growing need for skills in Generative AI around the world. It is part of their Continuing Education Programme (CEP) and lasts for six months, aiming to provide professionals with deep knowledge in artificial intelligence.
In this course, participants will learn about advanced AI techniques, especially focusing on Large Language Models (LLMs) like GPT, BERT, and T5. They will also study subjects like Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback (RLHF) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs), along with how to use AI responsibly.
The course is divided into six special topics:
1. Mathematical Foundations for Machine Learning (ML)
2. Machine Learning Basics
3. Natural Language Processing (NLP)
4. Generative AI for Text
5. Generative AI for Images
6. Responsible AI
Students will get hands-on experience with popular tools like Python, NumPy, Pandas, PyTorch, and TensorFlow. They will also learn to work with NLP tools like NLTK and spaCy for better data handling.
The programme will be taught through live online sessions that allow everyone to interact. It will include case studies, projects, and even a special one-day visit to the IIT Delhi campus for practical experience.
Professor Tanmoy Chakraborty, an expert in AI at IIT Delhi, said that this course will help professionals gain skills needed for the future and make India a leader in AI technology. He believes Generative AI has the power to change how we work and improve industries.
