During this 8-hour deep dive, you will be introduced to the key techniques, services, and trends that will help you understand foundation models from the ground up. This means breaking down theory, mathematics, and abstract concepts combined with hands-on exercises to gain functional intuition for practical application. Throughout the course, we focus on a wide spectrum of progressively complex generative AI techniques, giving you a strong base to understand, design, and apply your own models for the best performance. We’ll start with recapping foundation models, understanding where they come from, how they work, how they relate to generative AI, and what you can to do customize them. You’ll then learn about picking the right foundation model to suit your use case.

This course introduces participants to blockchain technology and provides a basic understanding of its main features. It begins by highlighting the business value of blockchain and the relevance of the technology for international trade. The lectures then move to explain the difference between blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT), defining key use cases for digital identity (ID), supply chain management, transportation / logistics, intellectual property rights, trade facilitation and financial services. The lectures further examine the opportunities blockchain / DLT may create for small producers and enterprises, especially those located in developing countries. Finally, the course explores the “blockchain for trade” ecosystem, implementation decision-making tools, regulatory requirements and other challenges that must be addressed before the technology can be used on a wide scale and generate significant impact.
