Join us for an interactive workshop where you will dive into the world of Generative AI, explore its possibilities, and get hands-on experience in prompting. Following a brief overview of prompting basics, you will be grouped into small teams and together select from a range of challenges to work on. These challenges represent real-world tasks from the field of technical documentation, content creation, and terminology work. You will be experimenting and refining your prompts while learning together in a fun and engaging way. To wrap up, you can share your results and lessons learned with the other participants, and we will also provide some sample solutions for reference.

You will need:

  • Laptop (or mobile phone, but consider limited screen space for groupwork)
  • Access/user account for a large language model (Copilot, Mistral, GPT4o Mini or any other model)

Takeaways

You will enhance your prompting skills through hands-on practice, collaborate on problem-solving, boost creative and innovative thinking, and explore real-world AI use cases.

Prior knowledge

This workshop is aimed for beginners. No special knowledge required.
