How LLMs Actually Work
Ampere’s no cost, Adult Digital Workshops will help you learn essential skills from the comfort of home.
About
Most people use AI tools daily without understanding what's actually happening under the hood. This gap creates real problems: over-trust, under-use, and poor tool choices. In this workshop, learners will build a working mental model of how LLMs generate outputs, where their knowledge comes from, what "temperature" and "context windows" actually mean in practice, and why the same prompt produces different answers across Claude, Gemini etc. Using a guided comparative output exercise, participants will run identical prompts across multiple models and analyze the differences. The session closes with a practical triage framework for choosing between models and genAI tools based on the work in front of them. This workshop is presented in partnership with IBM. Workshop participants will gain access to IBM's Generative AI Essentials credential after attending this session.
Outcomes
- Explain in plain language how large language models generate responses (e.g. why outputs vary etc.)
- Compare outputs across at least two AI platforms using a structured evaluation lens
- Apply a task-first decision framework to identify which AI tool is appropriate for a given professional use case
