Amazon wants you to work in AI. More specifically, they want to train you on the skills necessary to handle one of these jobs.
In a blog post on Monday, Amazon announced “AI Ready,” the company’s new initiative to give two million people access to free AI skills training by 2025. In total, the company is offering eight new classes, for free, for varying experience levels and purposes. In addition, AI Ready aims to offer a new generative AI course to more than 50,000 high school and university students. The company has also formed a new partnership with Code.org to teach students about generative AI.
But back to the free classes: Whether you’re a total beginner to the world of AI, or you’re an experienced person looking to boost your skills, Amazon believes it has a class for you in AI Ready. (There are more than 80 other AI classes and resources Amazon hosts on AWS, but not all of them are free.)
The classes range in length, experience level, and topic, and the list covers a variety of different use cases. I can imagine Amazon’s “Introduction to Generative Artificial Intelligence” course, for example, being useful for anyone looking to gain a baseline understanding of how generative AI works.
Business and nontechnical AI classes
Amazon has three courses for those looking to learn AI skills for business, as well as other non-coding situations:
Introduction to Generative Artificial Intelligence: Essentially, Generative AI 101.
Generative AI Learning Plan for Decision Makers: This class is three courses, and teaches you have to plan a generative AI project and help your company become generative AI-ready.
Introduction to Amazon CodeWhisperer: Amazon will teach you how to use its AI code generator. (I would count this as a “technical” class, but I guess Amazon has a different standard.)
Developer and technical classes
For anyone interested in learning about the technical side of AI, Amazon has five classes to offer.
Foundations of Prompt Engineering: This class teaches you the basics of prompt engineering, which will build your skills with interacting with generative AI.
Low-Code Machine Learning on AWS: If you don’t know much code (but have some basis), this class can show you how to build AI models without too much technical know-how.
Building Language Models on AWS: Amazon will teach you how to use SageMaker training libraries to build language models, which is the basis for generative AI.
Amazon Transcribe—Getting Started: This course teaches you how to use Amazon Transcribe, which converts speech to text.
Building Generative AI Applications Using Amazon Bedrock: You’ll learn how to build generative AI apps using Amazon Bedrock.
