I have used the help of Google Gemini to describe the program I participated in during May and June.
Google Gen AI Startup School is a program designed to equip early-stage startup founders with the knowledge and tools to leverage generative AI for their business growth. Through a mix of online training, workshops, and expert guidance, the program covers topics like building AI agents, utilizing Google’s AI platform (Vertex AI), and understanding multimodality (text, images, and videos) with models like Gemini.
Essentially, it’s a deep dive into using generative AI to accelerate startup development and gain a competitive edge.
Google Gen AI Startup School students benefit from a powerful combination of GitHub course materials and live video tutorials. This synergistic approach accelerates learning and practical application:
Interactive Learning: Live streams offer real-time explanations, demonstrations, and Q&A sessions, providing immediate context to the GitHub materials. Hands-on Practice: Students can follow along with instructors during live streams, applying concepts directly to the code examples on GitHub. Deeper Understanding: By referencing GitHub code while watching tutorials, students can visualize and dissect the underlying logic, reinforcing their learning. Iterative Development: Students can experiment with different approaches, guided by the live streams, and then refine their code based on the GitHub examples and instructor feedback. Community and Support: Live streams foster a collaborative learning environment, where students can interact with peers and instructors, while GitHub provides a platform for sharing code and receiving feedback. Project-Based Learning: Students can use the GitHub materials as a foundation for their startup projects, while live streams offer guidance, troubleshooting, and inspiration.
