00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.140
Hi and welcome to this course.

2
00:00:02.420 --> 00:00:04.560
My name is Maximilian Schwarzmüller

3
00:00:04.560 --> 00:00:06.600
and I will be your instructor in this

4
00:00:06.600 --> 00:00:09.080
course where I will teach you how to

5
00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:11.960
efficiently use AI tools like GitHub

6
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:14.900
Copilot and the Cursor IDE as a

7
00:00:14.900 --> 00:00:15.260
developer.

8
00:00:15.060 --> 00:00:19.400
Because of course AI is here, it's here to

9
00:00:19.400 --> 00:00:22.240
stay and as a developer it's another

10
00:00:22.240 --> 00:00:25.120
powerful tool in your tool belt which you

11
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:26.740
can and should use.

12
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:29.280
But of course in order to use it, you must

13
00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:31.080
know how to use it and whilst getting

14
00:00:31.080 --> 00:00:34.880
started with it is simple, it's also kind of

15
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:38.420
simple to use all these AI tools

16
00:00:38.420 --> 00:00:41.800
inefficiently, to rely too much on them or

17
00:00:41.800 --> 00:00:44.720
to simply not know about certain

18
00:00:44.720 --> 00:00:46.900
features that would exist that you're

19
00:00:46.900 --> 00:00:47.940
maybe not using.

20
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:50.880
And that's the purpose of this course.

21
00:00:51.140 --> 00:00:53.540
I'll walk you through the most important

22
00:00:53.540 --> 00:00:56.660
features offered by GitHub Copilot and

23
00:00:56.660 --> 00:00:58.980
Cursor, I'll show you how you could

24
00:00:58.980 --> 00:01:01.680
sometimes also use ChatGPT in addition

25
00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:04.660
to these tools and we'll build a complete

26
00:01:04.660 --> 00:01:07.340
demo project with these tools after

27
00:01:07.340 --> 00:01:09.620
learning about their essentials so that by

28
00:01:09.620 --> 00:01:11.800
the end of this course you'll be able to

29
00:01:11.800 --> 00:01:14.660
use these tools as a developer efficiently

30
00:01:14.660 --> 00:01:15.040
too.

31
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:19.100
And that's also important, this is not a

32
00:01:19.100 --> 00:01:22.420
no-code course, this is not a course for

33
00:01:22.420 --> 00:01:24.580
people who don't know how to write

34
00:01:24.580 --> 00:01:27.960
code because whilst AI can help you

35
00:01:27.960 --> 00:01:31.400
there as well, in my experience it's not

36
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:34.580
fully there yet and it might never be.

37
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:37.920
Instead, at this point in time, in my

38
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:41.560
experience, the most powerful AI use

39
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:44.800
case is to use it in conjunction with your

40
00:01:44.800 --> 00:01:46.260
existing development knowledge

41
00:01:46.260 --> 00:01:48.280
because it can make you more efficient

42
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:50.380
and that's what this course is about.

43
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:06.880
not waste any time, let's dive right in and

44
00:02:06.880 --> 00:02:08.600
let's get started with this course.
