Developer roadmap for GenAI
Evolution of AI: ML → Deep Learning → GenAI
Traditional AI vs Generative AI
Responsible AI: bias, harm, safety, guardrails
Transformers explained (tokens, embeddings, context windows, attention)
What are LLMs? Pre-trained vs fine-tuned models
Essential Tools: Python, Jupyter, OpenAI Playground, Hugging Face Hub
Mini Project: Build a GenAI-powered Python script with prompt parsing

Adopt a developer mindset: orchestrate, not train. Gain hands-on experience building real apps with APIs and local models.

Developer mindset: 'orchestrate, not train'
APIs vs local models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, Hugging Face, Ollama)
Installing and running local LLMs (Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM)
Cost management and rate limits
Comparing model behavior across providers
Prompt tuning vs fine-tuning
Lightweight finetuning (LoRA, QLoRA)
Mini Project: Chatbot across API, open-source, and local models

Build production-quality GenAI applications from scratch, without relying on frameworks — understanding every layer.

Production-style prompt pipelines
Conversation memory without frameworks
LLM response parsing (JSON, structured)
Building UI with Streamlit/Gradio
Error handling, retries, fallbacks
Mini Project: Minimal chatbot with memory + UI
