Start here: from chat to building

Priya uses a chat window every day. Now she wants AI to do real work for her team. Your goal: see how a chat grows into a safe, working system.

From a chat box to a working system

A chat app is a program around an AI model. When you type, the app sends a request to the model. The request holds the app's own rules, called the system prompt. It also holds the chat so far and a size limit for the answer.

First, learn what you may paste and how to pick a tool. Then build on that one request, so the model can use tools.

What this track covers

  1. Safe AI at work: data and privacy — what you may paste.
  2. Picking the right AI tool — the job, not the brand.
  3. Projects and custom assistants — a saved helper.
  4. Using AI through an API — code talks to a model.
  5. Cost, limits and caching
  6. Tool calling and structured output — the model asks, your code acts.
  7. MCP: plug tools into AI — one plug for tools.
  8. Context and memory — what it sees and keeps.
  9. Agents, subagents and skills — a model in a loop.
  10. Automations and agent builders — a person approves.
  11. AI that uses your apps and browser — the least access.
  12. Coding assistants — read every change.
  13. Guardrails and jailbreaks — checks around a bot.
  14. The big picture
  15. Cheat sheet & pop quiz
