A little weekend update! 🚀🤖

This weekend was a good reminder that there’s still so much to learn in AI, even when you think you already know the basics.

I started with the AI Residency Cohort 12 onboarding session by Decoding Data Science, where Mohammad Arshad walked us through the evolution of AI, how models have developed over time, and what we’ll be learning and working on during the next 20 weeks.

We also explored concepts like tokenization, how language models process text, and AI hallucinations — why AI can sometimes give answers that sound completely confident but are actually wrong.

It made me think about how important it is to understand what happens behind the scenes instead of just knowing how to use AI tools.

Later, I attended the Agentic AI Engineering Masterclass, where we explored four layers of building agentic AI systems:

• Prompt engineering • Context engineering • Harness engineering • Loop engineering

One thing that really stuck with me was that getting a good response from AI is only one part of the process. Building a system that can use tools, check its results, and try again when something goes wrong is a different challenge altogether.

And a little highlight… 🏆 I came 1st in the Kahoot quiz! 😂 Definitely a fun moment during the session!

As someone studying IT with a focus on AI, these sessions make me even more curious about how AI systems are actually built and what we can do with them beyond basic prompting.

Now I'm looking forward to the next 20 weeks of the residency — learning, experimenting, making mistakes, and hopefully building things I'm genuinely proud of.

Thank you, Mohammad Arshad and Decoding Data Science, for the sessions and the opportunity to learn!

One weekend, two learning sessions, and so much more to explore. Here's to getting better, one step at a time.
