Course: Generative AI Fundamentals
This course is based on Lab34’s enterprise AI training programme. In five focused lessons you will build a solid understanding of how generative AI actually works — no hype, just mechanics. By the end you will know what tokens are, how predictions happen, which model families exist, and why context windows matter more than most people think.

Prerequisites
Section titled “Prerequisites”- No programming experience required
- Curiosity about how AI tools work under the hood
