This advanced module teaches students how to transform AI prototypes into production-ready systems. Students will master fine-tuning techniques, implement safety guardrails, design multi-model architectures, and establish comprehensive evaluation frameworks. This level focuses on reliability, safety, and performance at scale.
By the end of this module, students will be able to:
Comparison of Techniques:
| Technique | Use Case | Data Required | Cost | Performance Gain |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Prompt Engineering | General tasks | None | Lowest | Moderate |
| Few-Shot Learning | Specific patterns | 5-10 examples | Low | Good |
| Fine-Tuning | Domain-specific | 1000+ examples | High | Excellent |
| Instruction Tuning | Task-specific | 500+ instructions | Medium | Very Good |
| RLHF | Alignment | Human feedback | Highest | Best for safety |
