Module 3: AI

Generative AI enabled the emergence of ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, which are also known as Conversational AI assistants. To maximize the use of these tools, this module will provide background on artificial intelligence, large language models, prompt engineering for better conversational outputs, and retrieval-augmented generation to prevent hallucinations.

Key Topics:

• Generative AI and Large Language Models
• Prompt Engineering
• Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Learning Objectives

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

• Discuss the basic concepts of artificial intelligence
• Enhance bioinformatics skills through prompt engineering
• Prevent hallucinations in bioinformatics analyses using retrieval-augmented generation
