Intro to PAA Course Development

The Personal AI Architecture
1

Hi All,

I’m coming up with a brief intro course on how to build your personal AI system using The Personal AI Architecture. In the course we are going to go from 0 to up and running with a personal AI system that is connected to a model, has chat with docs functionality, an interface, and runs locally on your computer.

I’m starting this thread to discuss discussion of what’s going to be in the course. Feel free to jump in with any ideas questions or concerns.

Thanks

@DJJones As we discussed in our call yesterday I want to include the interview, spec, build, execute, test prompt templates in the course so participants in the course can use them as they follow along in the course.

Initially we talked about putting them in a new course example repo on the PAA org. While I think we should definitely have a new repo for the example I think what should go in that repo is the filled out docs, not the templates that people are going to use.

I think we should put the templates to be used alongside the template in the template repo for the following reasons:

  1. The template is for making it easy to build on PAA, and these prompts are part of that process.
  2. If we put them in the example repo instead then people have to clone 3 repos instead of 2 to get up and running which is additional cognative overhead that I would like to avoid.

So I am planning on putting the prompts in a prompt folder in the template repo. And then also creating the example repo which will have the completed code for the app we are building in the course along with the fully filled out templates that I execute in the course.

Any questions or issues on this let me know.

Thanks
Dave W.

One more thing here. I thought I had cloned the template for my chat w/ docs and open scroll tests but it looks like they were actually added to the public repo instead. I am pulling those out now.

Sorry about that!

Thanks
Dave

Those changes have been reverted and the template repo is clean now.

Thanks
