The Truth About AI: Job Market Shifts, RAG, and Advanced Prompting

Описание: In this session, we dive past the hype to understand what Artificial Intelligence and Large Language Models (LLMs) actually are—and how they are reshaping the workforce. We explore the fundamental misconception that AI is a "repository of facts" and explain why it is actually a "text prediction machine" relying on transformers and tokens.

We also discuss the urgent shift in the job market. With major tech companies like Amazon redirecting budget from salaries to AI infrastructure, junior knowledge work (the "bricklayers") is decreasing in demand, while the need for "architects"—those with design skills, empathy, and judgment—is rising.

Finally, we cover essential technical concepts like Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to prevent hallucinations, the difference between fine-tuning and deep research, and practical principles for better prompting.

In this video, you will learn:
The Core Misconception: Why GPTs are next-token prediction engines, not knowledge bases.
Career Survival Guide: Why "architect" roles are safe while "junior analyst" roles are at risk.
Technical Deep Dive: Understanding tokens, context windows, and memory.
*RAG Explained: How Retrieval Augmented Generation grounds AI to stop it from making things up.
Fine-Tuning vs. Deep Research: When to train a model on specific data (like legal statutes) versus letting it research the web.
Prompt Engineering: Moving from "Chain of Thought" to "Chain of Draft" and how to get the best outputs.
