Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is a major milestone in business automation. Despite its recency, it has already had a significant impact on our lives. But, the rapid pace at which generative AI is growing can be overwhelming. And, there are so many facets to this field that it can be difficult to know how to use it effectively to improve the business.

This course is designed to demystify generative AI for business professionals, as well as to trace its power to actionable, real-world business goals. It will give you the essential knowledge of generative AI you'll need to elevate the organization in these exciting times. This course is primarily designed for business leaders, consultants, product and project managers, and other decision makers who are interested in unlocking new business opportunities and augmenting existing business processes using generative AI. It's also a great starting point for any business professionals who want to investigate generative AI solutions for their own individual tasks and workflows. This course is also designed to assist students in preparing for the CertNexus® GenAIBIZ™ (Exam GAZ-210) credential. In this course, you will: describe the fundamentals of AI and generative AI, generate text using AI, generate images and video using AI, generate audio using AI, generate code using AI, identify the challenges of generative AI, and implement business strategies for generative AI.
