Key Takeaways

Generates code for Python using Gen AI

Original Description

Think coding is out of reach? With some help from generative AI, we can now easily break down problems and develop software to solve them. In this 1.5 hour guided project, we will break down the game logic for the game Hangman and then let generative AI help us produce the code. By the end, we'll have a fully functioning game that we can play on the command line. Along the way, we'll use Google Bard to give us advice on how to set up our development environment, we'll use it to translate our ideas into code, and we'll interact with Bard to improve our code and our understanding of it. By the end of this project, you'll have developed new skills with both generative AI and Python that you can start applying right away. If you want to empower your learning process using generative AI so that you can code from scratch without experience, this course is for you.
