it home reported on september 7 that nvidia deep learning institute (dli) has teamed up with dartmouth college to develop a new, free "generative ai teaching kit".

“our primary goal is to equip students with the skills to develop their own gpu-accelerated generative ai applications,” said sam raymond, adjunct assistant professor of engineering at darmstadt university, who helped develop the toolkit. “we believe that students who take this course will have a clear advantage in the job market and help fill the knowledge gap across industries today.”

it home learned from the report that the "generative artificial intelligence teaching toolkit" includes lecture slides, hands-on experiments, jupyter notebooks and knowledge checks, as well as online courses. students can complete the learning at their own pace, and a certificate of competency will be issued at the end of the course.

the focus of the latest course is: introduction to the basics of natural language processing (nlp) applicable to large language models (llms).

the course will also use the nvidia cloud platform for cloud-driven training of generative pre-trained transformer (gpt) models, and then expand to cover modules such as diffusion models for image and video generation, multi-model llm architectures and their optimization, and llm coordination, with the company promising more modules to be launched in due course.
