This course enabled me to appreciate the power of AI support, but it seems to me that concrete application to more than one use case would have been relevant. Probably half a day more would have done the trick. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that there were only 4 people in our group. We were therefore able to ask all the questions we had. I doubt that would have been the case with a larger group.
