| AI Education | OpenAI unveils AI academy, an online resource hub with 10+ live coding sessions, real-world GPT-4 use cases
| ⇧ 8,394 Likes |
| What's New |
A few months ago, OpenAI announced funding for OpenAI Academy, an online resource hub. Now, OpenAI has launched it for all, offering structured AI courses. The platform provides hands-on training in prompt engineering, multimodal AI, and fine-tuning. Its most notable feature is the focus on practical applications rather than theory.
What OpenAI Academy Offers The platform provides training on applied use of OpenAI APIs and models.
Covers prompt engineering, RAG, fine-tuning, embeddings, and function calling
Offers walkthroughs using gpt-4, gpt-3.5-turbo, and text-embedding-3-large
Tutorials reference token usage, latency handling, and API version-specific behaviors
Includes annotated code examples for model integration, workflow automation, and data processing
Focus on Practical AI Applications Courses emphasize real-world AI use rather than deep model architecture.
Guides for implementing GPT-4 in code generation and structured data tasks.
Demonstrations of AI agents performing function calling.
Multimodal AI sessions covering text and image processing workflows.
Content targets beginners and intermediate users.
Workshops and Live Events OpenAI Academy includes scheduled live sessions with practical implementation focus.
Lists over 10 livestreams from Apr 4 to Jun 4, each 60–120 minutes long
Topics include GraphRAG pipelines, nonprofit workflow automation, and document Q&A with GPT
Events use live coding formats with OpenAI API usage and real examples
No registration fees required to attend sessions
Platform Access and Contribution You can access the content and tools without payment. Materials align with production deployment scenarios and current OpenAI APIs
SDKs, guides, and real-world templates are available through official repositories
Community Feedback
Charli "Good to see this. The older adults courses are a great addition because we turned to forget that not everyone is in the AI world like we are"
Mahesh "For learning prompt and other model specific actions this can be a good place."
Paul Couvert "Always good to have more free knowledge." |

TOP MODELS
| LLM | |
⇧124,010 Downloads |
This model helps you run the recently released DeepSeek model efficiently in llama.cpp, LMStudio, and Open WebUI. Dynamic quantization improves accuracy over standard bits. The 2.42-bit and 2.71-bit versions balance performance and size. You can fine tune it on Colab for 2x faster inference with up to 80% lower memory. |
| Text-to-Image |
| ⇧ 51,162 Downloads |
Use Ghibli-Diffusion to generate images in the visual style of modern Studio Ghibli films. Load with StableDiffusionPipeline via Hugging Face Diffusers. Trained using DreamBooth with prior-preservation and text encoder fine-tuning over 15,000 steps. Supports ONNX, MPS, FLAX/JAX exports. Use ghibli style in prompts to activate the effect.

| 3D Scene Understanding |
| ⇧ 13,239 Downloads |
SpatialLM processes 3D point clouds to generate structured scene representations, identifying architectural elements and objects. It supports inputs from monocular videos, RGBD images, and LiDAR. Trained with MASt3R-SLAM, it achieves 78.62 mean IoU for walls and 95.24 F1 @.25 IoU for beds.

PYTORCH TIP
| Ensuring Model Consistency with Persistent Tensors
|
Model persistence ensures that essential non-learnable tensors remain consistent across training and inference. It prevents issues related to manual device transfers, making models more reliable and easier to deploy. Without proper persistence, fixed tensors could be lost or require manual reconfiguration, leading to inconsistencies in results.
Store persistent tensors in your model using 'register_buffer' to manage non-trainable states efficiently.
Why This Works
'register_buffer' attaches a fixed tensor to your model, ensuring that it is saved and loaded properly while avoiding manual device transfer errors.
When To Use
Ideal for inference or training scenarios requiring fixed, non-learnable states tied to the model, such as: Masks for selective processing
Running statistics in batch normalization alternatives
Precomputed constants used in model computations
Benefits |
import torch
class MyModel(torch.nn.Module): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.register_buffer("mask", torch.ones(10))
def forward(self, x): return x * self.mask
# Example usage model = MyModel() print(model.mask) # Persistent buffer, not a parameter
