“Outside ChatGPT: New Modalities and Nuances of Generative AI”
This workshop is part four of a four-part series.
Goal: understand that there is more to generative AI than LLMs: outside of text there are other modalities, and within text there are RAG systems and AI agents; get hands-on with a few of these advanced topics and dive into how this may help managers in the workplace
Prerequisites: ChatGPT Plus account installed, free accounts created at Suno, Pika, Adobe Firefly, and Perplexity; Workshops 1-3 completed
The instructor delivering the workshop on behalf of 387labs is Tim Valicenti. Tim is the creator and an instructor of MIT’s first course exclusively designed around generative AI called Generative AI for Managers.

- Understand the differences between classic machine learning and modern generative AI
- Overview of various use cases of AI (along with some dangerous pitfalls made by big companies)
- Understand – without doing any math – how ChatGPT was trained, on what data, and why now
- Equip managers and teams with the know-how of how to prompt LLMs effectively
- Working With AI Models and LLMs (hands-on)
- Understand how AI will change the future of work and where one’s own corporation sits in the AI value chain
- There is more to generative AI than LLMs: RAG systems and AI agents
Sections:
- Module 1: Image, Video, and Sound Generation (hands-on)
- Module 2: Prompting, Semantic Search, RAG, Agents, and Fine-Tuning
- Module 3: RAG Workshop (hands-on)
