Vibe Coding & AI Agents

Step into a new era of code, where natural language prompts are your primary programming tool. In this workshop we will introduce “vibe coding,” the practice of evaluating the output of code, and AI agents, autonomous AI systems with the “agency” to take greater action than the typical chatbot. In this workshop we will learn effective prompting, where the guardrails on AI should be, get hands-on with various tools, and why humans are still in the driver's seat when it comes to programming computers.

Our policy is that we do not record live workshops in order to encourage robust Q&A. However, you can always find the full workshop materials for all of our workshops at: https://library.virginia.edu/data/training/past-workshops which allows you to work through the material at your own pace. We also encourage you to reach out to the instructor at any time for a one-on-one consult, and for specific or general questions about any of the topics we cover.
