Agenda

Your 2-Day Transformation into an AI-Fluent Product and Business Leader

This isn't just a course; it's a two-day, hands-on playbook designed to systematically advance you through four stages of mastery. You will start by mastering the core technology and end by confidently driving company-wide AI strategy.

Agenda

Morning Session: The Technologist - Mastering the Core "Why"
Master the foundational "why" behind modern AI with a deep, intuitive grasp of Machine Learning and Transformer architectures, equipping you to engage confidently with engineering teams and lead with credibility.
Go "Under the Hood" : Gain a clear understanding of core Machine Learning concepts and delve into the architecture of Large Language Models (LLMs), such as Transformers.
Understand the Engine: Explore their training methods, including pre-training and fine-tuning and examine the fundamental strengths and limitations of cutting-edge LLMs.
Translate Theory to Practice: Apply your knowledge through a hands-on, no-code ML model.
Afternoon Session: The Builder - From Idea to Interactive Prototype
This hands-on stage is dedicated to mastering the tools that allow you to rapidly prototype, validate ideas, and create tangible AI-powered experiences yourself.
Master the Art of Control: Learn professional-level skill in prompt engineering to steer AI models and go beyond simple prompts by designing and building your first functional AI Agent capable of executing complex tasks.
Build Your First AI Products: Use AI playgrounds to build and ship multiple prompt-based micro-products and custom GPTs.
Evening: Networking over dinner and drinks with Investors, Product and Business Leader from your cohort and broader community.
Day 1 Outcomes:
Clearly explain the core technology of LLMs to any audience, from engineers to executives.
Lead technical discussions with confidence and credibility, eliminating any sense of being an imposter in AI meetings.
Demonstrate professional-level skill in prompt engineering to effectively interact with and control generative models.
Build multiple functional products and custom GPTs that you can ship using only prompts.
Build and deploy your own functional AI agent, giving you a real-world project for your portfolio.

Morning Session: The Architect - Designing Production-Ready Systems
A great prototype doesn't automatically make a great product. As an architect, you will learn to design systems that are robust, defensible, and built upon a coherent data strategy and repeatable patterns.
Develop Your Data Strategy: Build an actionable plan for integrating GenAI that accounts for crucial factors like cost-value tradeoffs and data privacy. Learn to identify and mitigate common LLM flaws like hallucinations, biases, and lack of grounding.
Build a Defensible Moat with Data: Master Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to connect your product to external data and understand when to use Finetuning to improve model performance.
Advanced System Design: Understand advanced concepts like Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent-to-Agent (A2A) systems to architect more sophisticated solutions.
Afternoon Session: The Product Leader - Driving Product Success & Organizational Change
Your impact expands from a single product to the entire organization. You will learn to navigate the complexities of shipping AI, and lead the strategic integration of this technology across your company.
Analyze real-world use cases: Identify lessons learned and best practices of successful GenAI and agentic AI implementations. Discover a wide range of applications and use cases for GenAI and agentic AI across various industries and domains.
Build a Long-Term GenAI Strategy: Develop a strategic framework to identify high-potential use cases and evaluate organizational considerations, including team structure, required for successfully implementing GenAI solutions.
Master the Shipping & Validation Process: Learn the end-to-end process for taking a product from a Proof-of-Concept (POC), to MVP, to full deployment and validation in the market.
Future readiness: Explore the potential impact of AGI on products, industries, and society and their difference from narrow AI systems. Stay informed about AGI research trends and breakthroughs.
Day 2 Outcomes:
Develop a strategic framework for integrating GenAI into your products.
Deploy strategies to mitigate weaknesses in AI models, such as hallucinations and potential biases.
Create bulletproof GenAI roadmaps that get funded because you know exactly which tool to use and why.
Pinpoint high-potential use cases and accurately assess the business value of bringing a new AI feature to market.
Confidently lead your company through the technological shift, securing your relevance and becoming the leader your company needs you to be.
