One model, many tasks — powerful because general, unreliable for the same reason
Transformers and foundation models: tokens, embeddings, attention, and scaling
Generative AI, Foundation Models & Multimodality
What can foundation models do, and how do we make them useful?
Transformers, tokens and attention without the equations; prompting as interface design; multimodal and synthetic media with trust boundaries.
Lessons in this module
Prompting is interface design: context, constraints, examples — then verify
Prompting, model behaviour, and human–AI interaction design
Multimodal AI unlocks the unstructured 80% — trust is the new bottleneck
Multimodal and synthetic media AI: text, image, audio, video, and trust
