Great course, awesome instructors, up-to-date and relevant material. You will get relevant skills to get you started in your AI Engineering career.

Spectacular amount of information delivered in ten weeks. Lectures are extremely well prepared, and the combined expertise of Dr. Greg and The Whiz works magically. ...resources were plentiful, and our cohort developed a camaraderie and I believe some long lasting future friendships. Highly recommended.

I come from a non-technical background, so calling this course rigorous is an understatement. But after 10 weeks, I’ve gained a solid grasp of AI engineering skills and their underlying theories. I’ve also built at least 18 functional and useful AI apps (I lost count by Week 7). The founders structured the bootcamp so that anyone determined enough can keep up while actively gaining new skills.

What a community that is being built from the ground up, on the cutting-edge, with enthusiasm. They have attracted a special group of practitioners and are selective in the process. At the intersection of data science, machine learning engineering, and MLOps comes the current future of LLMOps and building what’s next in this space.

Amazing course! Learned a lot in 10 weeks. It was tough but totally worth it. I can't believe I was able to build the product in the end.

This course is not for the faint of heart or the casual hobbyist in AI Engineering! Make no mistake - it is a rigorous bootcamp. But for those with the strong desire to meaningfully upskill in this area, I can't think of a better way to spend 10 weeks.

Creator of MergeKit

I saw a lot of great projects during Demo Day. I saw a lot of people solving real problems. Some really solid foundations were built up here. My advice, though, is to get weirder with it. Things are moving so fast that evaluating what's real and what's crazy is really difficult right now.

This is a great course! Whether you are new to LLMs, or already using them but wanting to learn more of the latest open source tools, this course is well worth your time.

I'm amazed by the community, the product, and the value delivered to students. Most educational courses only give you knowledge but don't push you to build. AIM has perfected learning through building. I truly enjoyed every moment of this course.
