Course Overview
In this one‐day course, participants will delve into the GenAI capabilities within Snowflake. This course empowers participants to integrate capabilities into their regular analytical workflows. Even without being a Data Scientist or a Machine Learning engineer, they will be able to extract insights at scale, interact with applications using natural language, drive coding productivity, and generate new content. The participants should walk away with experience leveraging these capabilities in different scenarios within the Snowflake training environment. This course consists of lectures, demos, labs, and discussions.
