🔹 What is GROQ? GROQ is a powerful AI model provider, similar to OpenAI or Anthropic, known for its high-speed inference infrastructure. In the AI Residency, you'll use GROQ’s models (like LLaMA or Mixtral) to: Run advanced LLMs (Large Language Models) Get fast, cost-effective responses in real-time applications Integrate these models into your AI apps via APIs Think of it like calling a smart assistant through code—GROQ makes it faster and cheaper. 🔹 Building AI Apps with APIs in Python In the real world, AI models are used through APIs, not just notebooks. You’ll learn to: Use Python to connect with models like GPT or GROQ via APIs Send a prompt → receive a response → display it in an app Build chatbots, text analyzers, or AI assistants using this workflow Why it matters: APIs are how AI apps go from ideas to real tools used in products and businesses. 🔹 Version Control with Git Git is a tool to track changes in your code—just like Google Docs tracks changes in text. In this residency: You’ll learn to use Git and GitHub to collaborate, save, and deploy your code safely Understand how to commit, push, pull, and manage branches It’s a critical skill for working in teams or contributing to real-world AI projects ✅ What You’ll Build (Beginner Level) A chatbot or AI tool powered by GROQ's models A Python script that calls an LLM through an API A GitHub repository with your project, ready to showcase
