About this Guided Project

Why LLAMA 3.3?

Llama 3.3 is an advanced open-source large language model (LLM) that is capable of taking multilingual input and generating multilingual and code output. Llama 3.3 beats OpenAI's GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet on a variety of benchmarks:*
This project will teach you how to work with Llama 3.3. You'll learn how to give it instructions (called "prompts") that maximize your chances of obtaining high-quality responses. We'll use examples and a step-by-step exercise to ensure you understand everything.

Objectives:

  1. Learn the right way to structure prompts for Llama 3.3.
  2. Practice using Llama 3.3 with hands-on exercises with the IBM's watsonx.ai LLM interface.
  3. Use LangChain to construct custom prompt templates.
