This workshop is for coders and researchers interested in using AI tools to become more efficient in their current work and tasks outside their area of expertise.  After a brief overview of LLMs, we will discuss general tips for coding using AI.  Next, we will work with an example coding task that processes data using a public API to explore various AI coding tools, including: 

  • A chatbot interface via Stanford AI Playground, e.g. like ChatGPT or Claude
  • GitHub Copilot integrated into a code editor
  • A command line interface (cli) via Gemini CLI
