The goal of this course is to provide the student with a tangible understanding and a real hands-on experience with generative AI applications deployed and optimized for IBM Power systems. This self-paced virtual course uses video lectures, review questions, and virtual lab machine exercises to provide the student with foundational knowledge and experience about the topics covered in the course. In the lecture, the student begins by learning the basics of generative AI, and the basic components of a generative AI application, then applies these concepts to real-world examples on Power where the student learns Power offerings for AI workloads, package management fundamentals in Python, Operating System deployment strategies on Power, and Power hardware use cases.

The lab exercises will start with viewing and manipulating files in a basic AI application running on IBM Power Red Hat Enterprise Linux. They will have hands-on experience identifying the components of that AI application and their connection to other components, and will add functionalities to the application that demonstrate more advanced AI application techniques like frameworks, prompt tuning, and conversation memory. Then, the students will go through the process of setting up a Python virtual environment, investigating Power hardware resources, and using the Hardware Management Console (HMC) to ensure memory and other resources are optimized for AI workloads.
