Elevate your coding capabilities and gain the skills necessary for maximized performance and career opportunities in the field of Artificial Intelligence. This book is a step-by-step guide designed to equip software engineers with solid foundation of Generative AI basics.

The book begins by introducing Generative AI using Google Colab to establish a solid foundation, before demonstrating how to leverage Python and Julia’s AI capabilities to construct Artificial Neural Networks. You’ll then explore advanced AI models, such as variational autoencoders, in order to generative images and text.

Author Pierluigi Riti not only navigates the complexities of this emerging topic but fills a crucial gap by guiding software engineers through theory before leading them to produce different types of models using only free resources.
