## Your shell is your home as a hacker
But most people never dare to experiment with even changing their shell.
What a shame
Time to build a command line tool!

## Procrastination is about negative emotions
As you get further into your career, you come to realize that the technical chops come over time and are the easy part.
Mastering your own emotions, working with emotional beings (other humans), and recognizing when something has come up and needs attention or skillful processing will take you further than memorizing 50 new books or development patterns.

## Build systems in the cloud - quickly
Infrastructure as code is a critical skill these days. Practitioners are able to define and bring up reproducible copies of architectures on cloud providers such as AWS and Google Cloud.
This course will get you hands on with CloudFormation, Terraform and Pulumi.

## Table of contents
# Introduction
## What you'll learn
When you're finished with this course, you'll have the knowledge you need to: * Understand and discuss Generative AI, its opportunities and challenges * Understand and discuss Large Language Models (LLMs) and the role they play in Generative AI * Understand how Generative AI is appearing in Developer-facing tools and Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) * Speak intelligently about how Generative AI is disrupting creative pursuits like software development, writing and the visual arts
This course is ideal for investors, strategists, marketing experts, and anyone who wants to learn more about Generative AI.
## Instructor Introduction
Hi, I'm Zachary, a Staff Developer Advocate at Pinecone.io. Pinecone offers the most performant cloud-native vector database that provides long-term memory for AI applications.
My full title at Pinecone is "Staff Developer Advocate (open-source)". I build AI applications and pipelines in public to demonstrate the power and flexibility of Pinecone's vector database.
I also maintain our many open-source examples such as Jupyter Notebooks and TypeScript / Next.js applications, which demonstrate machine learning and AI techniques such as semantic search and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG).
Me speaking at Andreesen Horowitz about taking Generative AI applications to production with the AWS Reference Architecture I created.
I also wrote [Pinecone's first production example](https://www.pinecone.io/blog/aws-reference-architecture/) in the [AWS Reference Architecture with Pulumi](https://github.com/pinecone-io/aws-reference-architecture-pulumi), which demonstrates how to perform semantic search at scale with Pinecone when you need to keep a traditional database like PostgreSQL in sync with your vector database.
I have been a full stack open-source developer since 2012.
# Generative AI
## What is Generative AI?
In this course, we'll examine exactly how and why Generative AI is able to do this, and what it means for creative types like software developers, artists, writers, designers and for creative industry in general.
Generative AI instantly fulfills complex requests for software, images, text, and even video. It's like having a genie in your computer you can ask for any digital assets.
