Free AI Engineering Career Pathway Workshop
Three live evenings for complete beginners, no coding needed. See what AI engineers build at work, write your first Python, build a small chatbot that reads a PDF, and leave knowing the path from zero.

What you do each day
Day 1
Kartik 15
Sun 1 Nov
What AI engineers build, and how ChatGPT works
- Where AI already works around you: the help chat on a bank app, the next video YouTube picks, Google Translate reading Nepali
- AI engineer, machine learning engineer, data scientist, data analyst: what each one does at work
- How ChatGPT works, in plain words: tokens and guessing the next word
- Your first Python, right in the browser with Google Colab
Demo: See how ChatGPT cuts your sentence into tokens, and why it can sound sure and still be wrong.
Live in class: Call a free Gemini model from Python with a free Google AI Studio key.
- Python
- Google Colab
- Gemini
Day 2
Kartik 16
Mon 2 Nov
A chatbot that reads your PDF
- Why companies want AI that answers from their own papers: a college's notices, a bank's rules, an office handbook
- Prompts that get the answer you want
- Embeddings: how AI finds the right paragraph, so it answers from the document instead of making things up
Demo: Ask a plain chatbot and a PDF chatbot the same question about a real notice, and compare the answers.
Live in class: Build a small chatbot that answers from one PDF, called a mini RAG. You keep the notebook.
- Python
- Google Colab
- Gemini
- Your PDF
Day 3
Kartik 17
Tue 3 Nov
AI on your laptop, and your path from zero
- Run a model with no internet using Ollama, on a laptop with 8GB RAM
- What an AI agent is: AI that uses tools and works through a task in steps
- The path for a beginner: Python first, then data, then machine learning, then AI apps like chatbots and agents
- What to learn first, what can wait, and free places to practise on your own
Demo: Watch a small AI agent look things up and answer a question on its own.
Live in class: What the full 12-week course covers, with Python from zero in weeks 1 and 2, and all your questions.
- Ollama
- Your laptop
- AI agents
What you need
- A laptop or desktopA phone works for watching. The live tasks need a keyboard.
- A Google accountFor Google Meet and the free tools.
- No experience needed+2 done, in college, or just starting out.
Days 1 and 2 run in your browser. On Day 3 we install one free app, Ollama, together.
