Hello, everyone.

00:01.240 --> 00:02.400
I Eden here.

00:02.440 --> 00:05.200
Yes, this is really I here.

00:05.200 --> 00:10.520
I'm really excited to talk to you today about our course discord server, which you can find linked

00:10.520 --> 00:15.560
in the video resources and how it's going to enhance your learning experience.

00:15.920 --> 00:20.560
I want to share with you the main reasons we've set up this discord server.

00:21.000 --> 00:28.240
First and foremost, it's going to be your go to place for getting quick answers to any questions you

00:28.240 --> 00:29.040
might have.

00:29.400 --> 00:37.040
Whether you're running into configuration issues, having technical problems, or just need clarification

00:37.040 --> 00:43.000
about something in the course, the discord server is there for you to get rapid support.

00:43.560 --> 00:49.640
The second big reason for having this server is to create a space where we can all engage in meaningful

00:49.640 --> 00:57.560
discussions about long chain generative AI agents, rag prompt engineering, and all the fascinating

00:57.600 --> 00:59.880
topics we are covering in this course.

01:00.200 --> 01:05.160
It's a place where ideas can flow freely and where we can learn from each other.

01:05.520 --> 01:09.440
Let me tell you about when you can expect to find me on the server.

01:09.880 --> 01:15.160
During weekends, I'll be fully available and checking the server consistently throughout the day.

01:15.720 --> 01:21.600
During weekdays, because of my day job, I'll be checking in twice daily, once in the morning and

01:21.750 --> 01:23.910
once in the evening after work hours.

01:24.310 --> 01:26.830
Now I really want to emphasize something important.

01:27.190 --> 01:30.030
Please, please don't hesitate to ask questions.

01:30.350 --> 01:31.990
I cannot stress this enough.

01:32.230 --> 01:34.150
There are no stupid questions.

01:34.350 --> 01:37.430
Every single question contributes to everyone's learning.

01:37.590 --> 01:43.830
And I know from experience that when one person asks a question, there are usually many others who

01:43.830 --> 01:47.070
had the same question but were hesitant to ask.

01:47.470 --> 01:53.310
Whether it's about configuration issues, error messages, or just understanding concepts better, I'm

01:53.310 --> 01:54.150
here to help.

01:54.550 --> 02:00.830
Quick support from me or your fellow students can save you hours of frustrating debugging.

02:02.150 --> 02:07.950
You can reach me through the discord server, which is the preferred method for course related questions,

02:07.950 --> 02:11.830
but I'm also available on LinkedIn and through Udemy DM.

02:12.190 --> 02:17.510
I'm always open to your feedback and suggestions, whether it's ideas for new topics we should cover

02:17.510 --> 02:20.310
or ways we could improve the existing content.

02:20.470 --> 02:25.910
I'm here to support your learning journey every step of the way, and I'm really looking forward to

02:25.910 --> 02:29.030
connecting with all of you through the discord server.

02:29.550 --> 02:35.630
Oh, and one quick technical note if you try to join the discord server and aren't able to for some

02:35.630 --> 02:41.790
reason, make sure you're logged into discord before clicking the link to the server that usually resolves

02:41.790 --> 02:43.230
any connection issues.
