A 25-minute glossary. Fine if you have zero prior knowledge, but you won't learn how to do anything. Get the concepts and move on to something with code.

Pros
Completely free and very short.
Defines basic concepts like 'prompt engineering' and 'grounding'.
No setup required, just read and click.
Cons
No hands-on component, not even a simple API call.
Overly simplistic; feels like a glossary, not a course.
The 'knowledge check' is trivial and doesn't test real comprehension.
Unit 4, 'When to use LLMs,' gives summarization a single paragraph. Same for classification. That's it. It’s less a lesson and more a list of bullet points expanded into sentences. The whole module feels like a series of definitions you could get from Wikipedia, but broken up with 'Continue' buttons.
There's no lab, no sandbox, nothing to actually try. The knowledge check at the end just asks you to recall definitions you just read. It's free, which is why I clicked on it, but it's barely a learning experience. It’s okay for getting the absolute basic vocabulary down before tackling a real course, like Google's or fast.ai's. But don't expect to walk away knowing how to build anything. It's a 25-minute vocabulary list.
