SUMMARY:The AI Maker's Guide to Python and API's
DESCRIPTION:Move beyond just using AI and start building with it! This
  hands-on workshop is designed for beginners who want to transition fr
 om chatting with models to creating their own functional software. Whe
 ther you are an artist, entrepreneur, or hobbyist, you will discover h
 ow to harness Python to build practical tools that solve real problems
 . What to Expect\nIn this session, you will learn how AI applications 
 are structured and how to integrate prompts into software. We will gui
 de you through setting up a simple Python development environment and 
 connecting a script to a language model API. You will learn to send in
 puts, process responses, and design effective prompts for specific tas
 ks. By the end of the class, you will have built a small command line 
 tool with a real use case that you can continue to improve at home.\nW
 hat to Bring\nYour Own Laptop: Please bring a laptop and charger to us
 e during the session.\nPreinstalled Software: Ensure you have Python a
 nd a code editor (preferably VS Code) installed in advance.\nInternet

 s the API.\nOptional API Key: If you prefer to use a specific paid mod
 el, please have your API key ready.\nWho Should Join\nThis class is id
 eal for anyone with basic computer comfort who is curious about practi
 cal software building. While no prior programming experience is strict
 ly required, you should be comfortable installing software and followi
 ng technical instructions. For the best experience, a basic familiarit
 y with Python syntax or the command line is helpful.\nImportant Detail
 s\nStarter Code: A downloadable template and starter code will be prov
 ided so you do not have to type everything from scratch.\nTechnical Su
