  • Use few-shot, decomposition and structured output schemas reliably.
  • Build evaluation sets and score outputs objectively instead of by impression.
  • Diagnose hallucination, drift and instruction conflict.

Course curriculum

01 — How instructions are interpreted

  • Tokenisation and context
  • Attention and ordering effects
  • Temperature and sampling

02 — Instruction architecture

  • System, developer and user layers
