This unit teaches practical use of generative AI tools, prompt engineering, and data preparation to produce reliable code, content, and visual assets. Students will explore tool capabilities and limits (e.g., Copilot, GitHub Copilot, Tabnine), construct and test agents/plugins, and apply responsible-AI and deployment considerations to real-world workflows.
Learning Objectives
- Analyze the capabilities, failure modes (including hallucinations and the infamous finger problem), and ethical implications of generative AI models and tooling (e.g., Copilot, Tabnine, transformers, DLPs) in professional workflows
- Apply prompt engineering and data-management techniques (manicuring data, localization, SEO-aware content strategies) to produce precise, reproducible outputs across code generation, written reports, slides, and visual assets
- Design and test conversational agents, Copilot plugins, and code-generation workflows by translating system requirements into prompts/specifications, generating code from an SRS, and iterating based on test/edit results
- Evaluate integration and deployment considerations — including Teams/GitHub integration limits, personalization, budgeting, accessibility, and Responsible AI mitigation strategies — and propose actionable solutions for real-world scenarios
