Frequently asked questions
Yes — this is a hands-on coding course that assumes intermediate Python. If you're new to Python, start there or take a non-technical AI course first.
Yes — building a simple chatbot is one of the projects, along with text generation and sentiment analysis using the OpenAI API.
The course is included with a DataCamp subscription, but calling OpenAI's API in your own projects later uses OpenAI's separate pay-as-you-go pricing.
About three hours of hands-on, in-browser coding.
