Great book
5.0 out of 5 stars Current, Comprehensive, and Insightful Introduction to ChatGPT
I concur with the early reviewers of "Practical Generative AI with ChatGPT" and highly recommend this book for Generative AI (GenAI) users, especially those who use ChatGPT.As an academic who is a GenAI user but not a data scientist or software developer, I felt this book was a necessity for the "mere mortals" who seek to improve their output performance across disciplines. For me, the key benefits of the text included:1. The breadth of information (e.g., generation of social media posts, research summaries, and creative images). I agree with the back cover note that "By the end of this book, you'll be well equipped to leverage OpenAI's technology for competitive advantage."2. The focus of the book on prompt engineering instead of Python coding is a big plus for readers who are not programmers. Eventually, GenAI will diffuse in the workplace through the prompt engineering skills of employees. Not too many books (I have about 10 on the subject of GenAI) take this angle.3. The author, Valentina Alto, did a nice job reproducing systematically both the prompts and the outputs (responses) so that readers can replicate the procedures and, perhaps more importantly, apply her advice to other issues or questions.4. The book is an introduction to ChatGPT, but it also covers some intermediary-level topics, such as retrieval augmented generation (RAG), model evaluation, OpenAI Playground, and OpenAI API models (I hope that I will see more information about the syntax/delimiters of ChatGPT in a third edition:-).5. Finally, this book was enjoyable to read, which is not always the case for other texts on the subject. It also had the right length.
5.0 out of 5 stars Thank heavens for a PRACTICAL GenAI book! :-)
Valentina Alto has succeeded where so many others have missed the mark. She has created a book on Generative AI (specifically ChatGPT) that focuses on truly practical applications instead of all the hype that seems to be everywhere we turn.Here is the Table of Contents. I have highlighted the chapters I found exceptionally helpful with an asterisk.1. Introduction to Generative AI2. * OpenAI and ChatGPT: Beyond the Market Hype3. * Understanding Prompt Engineering4. Boosting Day-to-Day Productivity with ChatGPT5. Developing the Future with ChatGPT6. * Marketing with ChatGPT7. * Research Reinvented with ChatGPT8. Unleashing Creativity Visually with ChatGPT9. Exploring GPTs10. * Leveraging OpenAI Models for Enterprise-Scale Applications11. Epilogue and Final ThoughtsWhat books do YOU recommend?
4.0 out of 5 stars Practical Generative AI with ChatGPT Review
Here is a balanced book review for "Practical Generative AI with ChatGPT, Second Edition" based on the information available in the sources:"Practical Generative AI with ChatGPT, Second Edition" positions itself as a comprehensive guide covering the fundamentals, practical applications, and enterprise implementations of generative AI with a special focus on ChatGPT.The book effectively details how generative AI can be a valuable assistant across various domains, including boosting daily productivity, generating and improving text content, assisting with ode development, enhancing marketing strategies like SEO and sentiment analysis), and even reinventing research by aiding in literature review and experiment ldesign.A key strength is the emphasis on prompt engineering principles and techniques, such as providing clear instructions, splitting complex tasks, asking for justifications, and using different levels of shot learning, which are crucial for obtaining quality results from LLMs. The book also delves into advanced topics like custom GPTs that can be built without code and the use of OpenAI APIs for embedding models in custom applications, showcasing the potential for specialization and enterprise use.While the book provides a solid foundation and numerous practical examples, it is important to consider the **rapidly evolving nature of the AI field, which means specific model details or features discussed could change over time. Additionally, the sources acknowledge inherent challenges when working with generative AI, such as the potential for hallucination, bias, and the necessity for a subject-matter expert in the loop to validate results, which are crucial points for users to remain vigilant about even when using the techniques presented.Overall, the book serves as a valuable resource for understanding and applying generative AI, offering detailed insights into leveraging ChatGPT and OpenAI technologies for both personal and professional use.
5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Have for Anyone Exploring ChatGPT Professionally
I picked this up as someone with minimal experience in AI, and it’s been incredibly helpful. It doesn’t just explain the theory but it also walks you through how to implement things in a structured, thoughtful way. and the step-by-step guidance on prompt engineering really improved how I use ChatGPT. Some parts get a bit technical toward the end, but that also makes it a good long-term resource as I level up.
5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent read
I appreciate that how the multimodal features of ChatGpt are explained in this book. Additionally, the usage of real-world examples to help us apply it to our everyday workflow has been amazing. The reading style has been carefully developed by the author which is grabbing the attention. Extremely well-organized! The book is excellent and includes real-world examples.
5.0 out of 5 stars Current and Relevant
What a wonderful practical guide to ChatGPT and Generative AI. The author does an excellent job providing foundational concepts and practical uses for using ChatGPT for efficiency. Concepts such as chain of thought, prompt engineering, and ReAct are considered. The author includes several sections on ethical considerations. This is a truly great guide to ChapGPT and Generative AI. This is a a wonderfully informative book.
Good book
It’s a really good book, well-structured and well-written. Definitely not made by AI.I’d say it’s perfect if you’re just getting started with AI and don’t know much yet. And if you’ve been using it for a while already, you might not find loads of new stuff, though it’s still a solid read and worth a flick through.
Excellent book and value for money!
Absolutely loved it. Its detailed and structured.
