Course Outline

Introduction to Generative AI and Prompt Engineering

  • Defining generative AI and distinguishing it from conventional automation
  • The impact of prompt engineering on the quality of AI-generated output
  • A snapshot of the current landscape of text, image, audio, and video generation tools
  • Identifying where prompt engineering delivers tangible business value

Foundations of AI Models for Text and Image Generation

  • Understanding large language models and diffusion models in accessible terms
  • Distinguishing between training data, fine-tuning, and prompting
  • Evaluating the capabilities and limitations of pre-trained models
  • How model architecture influences prompt formulation

Comparing the Leading AI Assistants

  • Microsoft Copilot: Highlights its strengths in Microsoft 365 integration (Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams), enterprise data grounding, while noting limitations in creative range and reasoning depth compared to competitors
  • Google Gemini: Recognizing its advantages in native multimodality, Workspace integration, and real-time search grounding, alongside challenges in consistency, regional availability, and complex instruction adherence
  • ChatGPT: Leveraging its mature ecosystem, custom GPTs, DALL-E image generation, and voice mode, while acknowledging issues with factual reliability without grounding and stricter limits on premium features
  • Claude: Valuing its long-context handling, nuanced reasoning, and analytical clarity, while noting constraints in tool ecosystem breadth and image generation capabilities
  • Selecting the optimal tool based on specific tasks, target audiences, or compliance requirements
  • A comparative walkthrough applying the same prompt across all four platforms

Principles of Effective Prompt Design

  • Establishing clarity, specificity, and context as the core elements of effective prompting
  • Structuring instructions, tone, formatting, and constraints
  • Identifying and correcting common beginner mistakes
  • Iterating from basic prompts to highly optimized ones

Zero-Shot, One-Shot, and Few-Shot Prompting

  • Differentiating these approaches and determining their optimal use cases
  • Interpreting model behavior to adjust examples effectively
  • Training a model on new tasks using a small set of well-selected samples

  • Implementing chain-of-thought and step-by-step reasoning prompts
  • Mitigating hallucinations, ambiguity, and bias in AI responses

Few-Shot Fine-Tuning Without Code

  • Understanding few-shot fine-tuning and its distinction from full model training
  • Adapting models to niche tasks through example-driven prompting
  • Deciding between prompt engineering and fine-tuning for specific investments
  • Assessing output quality and refining through iteration

Hyper-Realistic Text Generation

  • Producing text with precise control over tone, voice, and length
  • Generating long-form content, summaries, reports, and structured documents
  • Maintaining logical coherence across multi-step generation tasks
  • Combining prompt patterns to achieve consistent, brand-aligned outcomes

Applying Prompt Engineering to Business Workflows

  • Automating routine drafting, research, and information triage
  • Exploring applications in customer support and chatbot interactions
  • Creating reusable prompt templates for teams without the need for retraining
  • Implementing quality control, escalation logic, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints

Image Generation and Manipulation

  • A comparative analysis of DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, MidJourney, and Leonardo AI
  • Crafting prompts to control style, composition, lighting, and subject matter
  • Utilizing negative prompts, weighting, and iterative refinement techniques
  • Performing image-to-image transformations and editing via prompts

Audio and Speech with AI

  • Generating natural-sounding speech from text inputs
  • Conceptual understanding of voice cloning and synthesis
  • Applications in training materials, accessibility, and marketing campaigns

Video Content Creation with Generative AI

  • An overview of current text-to-video tools and their realistic capabilities
  • Scripting and storyboarding through sequential prompts
  • Integrating AI-generated text, images, audio, and video into cohesive assets
  • Editing and refining AI-created video content

Multimodal AI and Integrated Workflows

  • How multimodal models integrate reasoning across text, image, audio, and video
  • Constructing end-to-end content pipelines without coding
  • Real-world case studies from marketing, design, training, and advertising sectors

Ethics, Responsible Use, and What Comes Next

  • Navigating bias, copyright, attribution, and content moderation
