Adding AI to your Python Project with the ChatGPT API
Course Description
Did you know that you can add the power of AI to your own Python application by utilising the ChatGPT API? This course is designed for Python programmers who want to learn how to add AI features like sentiment analysis and natural language processing to their applications to make them smarter and more interactive. We’ll start with the basics, such as setting up and making simple API requests, and then gradually explore more advanced topics like analysing usernames for inappropriate content, doing sentiment analysis on comments and analysing a log file for suspicious activity. Continuing on we will complete more advanced tasks like specifying how the responses will be formatted using structured data and getting our own information into the model through the use of functions. By the end of the course, participants will have a solid understanding of how to leverage the OpenAI models to create smarter and more interactive Python applications.
Duration: 2 days
Who should attend
This course assumes familiarity with the Python programming language. No experience with AI is assumed. Access to the OpenAI API is a requirement for this course.
