Nxtwave Organises Workshop On Generative AI

NxtWave, an upskilling platform for software careers, organised a virtual Generative AI Mega Workshop to empower aspiring tech students with cutting-edge and emerging technologies. The workshop witnessed the participation of students from over 3,000 colleges across India. 

Generative AI, one of the world's top emerging technologies, is capturing the attention of major companies, including tech giants like Meta, Google and Microsoft to implement the technology across business and product functions. McKinsey estimates that generative AI could add the equivalent of USD 2.6 trillion to USD 4.4 trillion annually, underscoring the immense potential and opportunities this field offers for skilled individuals. 

During the three-hour online workshop, students delved into multiple AI tools such as OpenAI APIs, Hugging Face, Gradio, Google Colab and more. The workshop adopted a hands-on approach, allowing participants to gain practical experience by building their very own AI applications. Under the guidance of NxtWave, the students were provided with valuable insights into key Generative AI concepts, empowering them with essential skills required in the AI era. 

Rahul Attuluri, CEO of NxtWave, commented, "Advancements in Generative AI are happening at an incredible pace. It’s highly important for students to build skills in this emerging technology. Through this workshop, we equipped students with the understanding of the key Generative AI concepts and essential skills through hands-on projects.”
