GenAI, the good Parts: A set of AI tutorials for engineers in a hurry. Designed to cut through the hype / frameworks and focus on the core use cases.
If you're here, you've been invited to review early versions of chapters for GenAI the good parts.
(the main readme is now in README-pub.md)
All chapters will be published here - they'll get an Alpha / Beta / GA tag so you know what level of quality to expect.
As chapters reach GA, they will be copied to a public version of this repo at some regular cadence.
They will also be posted to https://genaibook.substack.com/, feel free to drop a subscribe there as well!
