AWS Certified AI Practitioner

Introduction

Introduction

Welcome to the AWS Certified AI Practitioner course. I'm Michael Forrester, and I'll be your guide on this comprehensive journey into the dynamic world of artificial intelligence on AWS. As AI continues to evolve rapidly, mastering the implementation and management of AI solutions on AWS is essential. This course bridges theoretical AI concepts with practical applications in the AWS environment.

This course builds on the foundational knowledge gained from the AWS Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) certification. By integrating both theory and hands-on practice, you will be thoroughly prepared for the AWS Certified AI Practitioner exam.

Each module in this course is designed to connect core AI principles with real-world AWS applications. Interactive quizzes, mock exams, and progress tracking are integrated throughout to help reinforce your understanding and pinpoint areas for further study.

These interactive resources not only reinforce key concepts but also monitor your progress and highlight topics that require extra attention.

The image shows a quiz question from an AWS AI Practitioner course about selecting the appropriate machine learning approach for grouping customer support tickets. There are four multiple-choice options: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, transfer learning, and reinforcement learning.

By the end of this course, the combination of quizzes and simulated exam scenarios will have built your confidence, ensuring that you are well-prepared to excel in the certification exam.


Course Modules Overview

1. Fundamentals of AI and ML

In this module, you will explore foundational AI concepts and learn the differences between artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning. The course covers various data types, learning techniques, and practical use cases for AI and ML in AWS environments.

The image is a slide titled "Types of Machine Learning," describing supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning with examples. There's also a small video call window showing a person speaking.

2. Fundamentals of Generative AI

This section delves into the specifics of generative AI. You will gain insights into tokens and embeddings, understand the lifecycle of foundation models, and examine cost considerations. Additionally, the module discusses the AWS infrastructure designed for Generative AI and explores practical real-world applications, along with their benefits and limitations.

3. Applications of Foundation Models

In this module, you will learn how to design and customize foundation models for your projects. Topics include:

  • Selecting pre-trained models
  • Fine-tuning models for specific applications
  • Implementing retrieval augmented generation (RAG)
  • Integrating vector databases to improve contextual understanding

These insights help ensure effective deployment of AI models on AWS, with best practices in prompt engineering and performance evaluations.

4. Guidelines for Responsible AI

This module focuses on the principles and techniques for building responsible AI applications. You will explore responsible model selection, legal risk management, combating dataset bias, ensuring transparency, and integrating human-centered design principles. These guidelines help ensure your AI solutions are both ethical and sustainable.

Note

Ensure that you adhere to ethical standards and best practices throughout your AI projects. Building responsible and transparent AI systems is critical for long-term success.

5. Security, Compliance, and Governance for AI Solutions

Security is critical in developing robust AI systems on AWS. This module covers:

  • Best practices in data engineering and secure data handling
  • Regulatory compliance requirements
  • Governance strategies for trustworthy AI applications

The image is a presentation slide titled "Emerging AI Compliance Standards – Overview," featuring a world map with annotations about NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act, and ISO standards. A person is visible in a small circular frame at the bottom right.

Warning

Always ensure that your AI solutions comply with the latest security and regulatory standards. Non-compliance can lead to significant risks and legal challenges.

6. Course Wrap-Up

In the final module, you will review all concepts covered in the course and complete a comprehensive mock exam simulating the AWS Certified AI Practitioner test environment. Additional resources will be provided for continuous learning in the AWS AI/ML space. Furthermore, you'll receive insights into future trends and the broader impact of AI on AWS and global industries.

Beyond the core course materials, you gain access to KodeKloud's Viber community forum. This platform is ideal for interacting with fellow learners, sharing insights, and receiving ongoing support throughout your AI journey.
