Summary

The last book on AI you’ll ever need. We swear!

How do you keep up with a topic that changes day to day? It seems like whatever you learned about artificial intelligence at lunchtime is obsolete by dinner. That means you have two choices. You can give up in frustration or you can learn what’s long-lasting about generative AI: the what and the why—even as how you use it continues to evolve.

Inside The Complete Obsolete Guide to Generative AI you will find:
 
  • Just enough background info on AI! What an AI model is how it works
  • Ways to create text, code, and images for your organization's needs
  • Training AI models on your local data stores or on the internet
  • Business intelligence and analytics uses for AI
  • Building your own custom AI models
  • Looking ahead to the future of generative AI

The Complete Obsolete Guide to Generative AI is a lighthearted look at programming with AI, as well as a rock-solid resource for getting the best out of these insanely powerful services. Let it be your guide to creating images and presentations, working with data feeds, prompt engineering, and much more. Going far deeper than any Medium article, this book gives you the tools you need to work better, faster, and smarter with AI, while making peace with your new robot overlords at the same time.

About the book

AI technology moves so fast that this book is probably already out of date! But don’t worry—The Complete Obsolete Guide to Generative AI is still an essential read for anyone who wants to make generative AI into a tool rather than a toy. It shows you how to get the best out of AI no matter what changes come in the future. You’ll be able to use common automation and scripting tools to take AI to a new level, and access raw (and powerful) GPT models via API.

What else? How about creating exciting images, video, and even audio with AI. Need more? Learn to harness AI to speed up any everyday work task, including writing boilerplate code, creating specialized documents, and analyzing your own data. Push beyond simple ChatGPT prompts! Discover ways to double your productivity and take on projects you never thought were possible! AI—and this book—are here to show you how.
