Отзывы о школе и об авторе
In two months I rebuilt the way I work. I now speak the same language as the developers: technology isn't just prompts to me anymore, it's understanding how things actually work under the hood. One of the most valuable things I gained is knowing exactly when AI shouldn't be involved at all – and when, on the contrary, it's worth going deep into a task with different models and approaches.
