If you could not join us live for the introductory session on 30th March, this sub-module ensures you're caught up and ready to embark on this learning journey. This is a combination of 2 sessions by Professor Abhilash Jindal to help you understand the wonderful world of stream data processing and by Mudit Srivastava from Pathway. This conversation lays the foundation for your expectations throughout the course, highlighting key areas and insights.

In this session, you will gain:

  • Basic Knowledge of LLMs and RAG: An introduction to Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), discussing their significance and impact on the industry.

  • Course Structure and Cohort Insights: An overview of the course structure and a glimpse into our diverse and vibrant cohort.

  • Introduction to Streaming: The past, the present, and the future.
