Programming with Generative AI in R In-Person / Online
Overview: Many Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) models now offer support in programming with different languages. In this workshop we will explore different models like OpenAI's ChatGPT, Anthropic's Claude and Microsoft's CoPilot in programming with R. We will discuss strengths and weaknesses, when and how to use GenAI using R.
At the end of this workshop, you will be able to
• understand how to use GenAI models in R
• generate GenAI prompts for creating R code
• understand the strength and weaknesses of specific GenAI models when using R
Prerequisite: Introductory knowledge of R, e.g. from Introduction to R, or CDSI R summer camp. You must bring your laptop and charger.
