ChatGPT with Rob Miles - Computerphile
Computerphile. A long, calm sit-down with AI-safety researcher Rob Miles on why a model that's trained to predict plausible text will always, structurally, sometimes invent facts. Recorded in early 2023, but the underlying mechanism it explains hasn't changed and the framing is still the cleanest way to internalise "it's a fluency engine, not a truth engine."
AI Expert note
Recorded in early 2023, so ignore any dated product references — the fluency-engine-not-truth-engine mechanism it explains hasn't changed, which is why it stays.
What you should get from this
You can explain why a model trained to predict plausible text will sometimes invent facts, no matter how polished it sounds.
Watch or know first
None, though it helps to have seen a short hallucination explainer like the primary pick first.

Coursera · DeepLearning.AIGenerative AI for Everyone
Andrew Ng
Real time inside an LLM, learning to prompt deliberately and recognise where generative AI is genuinely useful versus where it's a trap. Calm, no-hype teaching — the perfect bridge from "I've tried ChatGPT once" to "I use it every day with confidence."

Coursera · DeepLearning.AI + AWSGenerative AI with Large Language Models
Antje Barth · Shelbee Eigenbrode · Mike Chambers · Chris Fregly
When practitioners ask "what should I take if I'm serious about building with LLMs?", this is the answer. Mathematically honest without being a research paper; AWS-flavoured deployment chapters stay useful even if you'll never touch SageMaker.
Advanced~16 hours
Coursera · Google CloudIntroduction to Generative AI
Google Cloud
Google's own answer to 'what is generative AI, actually' — the non-technical counterpart to Elements of AI, aimed explicitly at sales, HR, marketing, and operations roles rather than engineers. Forty-five minutes to a real mental model of how generative AI differs from classic machine learning, with no code and no jargon.
