▶️ Watch Video Highlights🏫 Course Philosophy
In the era of GPT-5, we reject the "outsourcing mentality."
Domain Experts (Humanities) must become the Architects of AI.
🚀 The Technical Evolution
Our curriculum evolves with SOTA technology to ensure students learn the most relevant skills:
-
2025 Focus: RAG & Agentic Workflows
Moving beyond fine-tuning. We focus on Long Context Prompting, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and designing Agent SOPs to solve complex logic tasks without catastrophic forgetting. -
2024 Focus: Instruction Fine-Tuning (SFT)
Teaching students how to curate datasets to fine-tune open-source models (like Llama 3 / TAIDE) for specific tasks, emphasizing that "Data Quality is Key."
