Gabriel’s notes
This short course, led by Karina Nguyen from OpenAI, offers a comprehensive introduction to using OpenAI Canvas for collaborative writing and coding. The course covers features like targeted editing, in-line feedback, and debugging assistance. Participants will explore practical applications such as building a game app, generating Python code from plot screenshots, and creating SQL databases from architectural images. By the end of the course, attendees will understand how GPT-4o powers these functionalities.
Good fit if you want to:
- build, test, or ship software faster (APIs, dev tooling, code assistance).
- learn a new skill, concept, or workflow with structured guidance.
