Course Description

Learn to use the Llama Large-Language Model (LLM)

What is the Llama LLM, and how can you use it to enhance your projects? This course will teach you how to run Llama locally, guide its responses using prompt engineering, and build structured and context-aware conversations.

Understand the Llama model and its applications

You'll start with an introduction to the foundational concepts of Llama, learning how to interact with Llama models and exploring their use cases. You'll gain hands-on experience setting up, running, and interacting with the model using the llama-cpp-python library. As you progress, you'll apply techniques to refine Llama’s responses, maintain conversation history, and generate structured outputs ready to be integrated into automated workflows.

This is an ideal introduction to Llama for developers and AI practitioners. It explores the foundations of this powerful open-source LLM and how to apply it in real-world scenarios.
