Mastering AI Engineering at PSI: Our First Bootcamp in Action
Artificial Intelligence is reshaping industries, and software developers must continuously adapt to stay ahead. At Predictive Systems Inc. (PSI), we are committed to equipping our teams with cutting-edge AI knowledge to enhance their capabilities. This commitment led to the launch of the AI Engineering for Software Developers Bootcamp, an intensive two-month internal training program designed to help our engineers integrate AI into real-world applications.
What the Training Covered
The AI Engineering bootcamp provided hands-on learning in AI and Machine Learning (ML), focusing on fundamental and advanced concepts. The curriculum covered:
- Machine Learning Models: Linear Regression, Support Vector Machines (SVM), Gradient Boosting, and more.
- Model Measurements & Interpretability: Understanding hyperparameter tuning and model accuracy.
- Foundations of Large Language Models (LLMs): Training and deployment fundamentals.
- Neural Networks & Transformer Models: Exploring deep learning architectures.
- AI/LLM Integration: Techniques such as Prompt Engineering, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and Knowledge Graphs.
- Fine-Tuning Small Language Models: Optimizing performance for specific use cases.
- State-of-the-Art (SOTA) Models: Understanding the latest advancements in AI.
By the end of the program, our engineers gained practical AI knowledge and applied their skills to build AI-powered applications.
Showcasing AI in Action: Capstone Projects
To demonstrate their learnings, our engineers presented AI-driven applications to key stakeholders. The projects developed showcased AI’s versatility across various industries:
