Hey there, Eden Marcus here.

00:01.960 --> 00:08.320
And welcome to the Link chain course developer link powered agents with link chain and Link Graph.

00:08.320 --> 00:13.720
And this is the third iteration slash edition of this course with all the changes with Lang.

00:13.880 --> 00:15.480
And I had to refilm it again.

00:15.480 --> 00:15.800
Again.

00:15.800 --> 00:18.080
So you would have the most up to date content.

00:18.280 --> 00:24.480
And the additional benefit of Refilming it is that I integrated a lot of your feedback to make this

00:24.480 --> 00:26.400
course better and better over time.

00:26.720 --> 00:28.440
So this is the course introduction.

00:28.440 --> 00:30.200
So please, please, please don't skip it.

00:30.240 --> 00:32.120
We have some important information here.

00:32.320 --> 00:32.960
All right.

00:32.960 --> 00:34.840
First of all welcome to the course.

00:34.840 --> 00:36.520
I'm super excited to have you here.

00:36.520 --> 00:38.520
And I really hope you will enjoy the course.

00:38.520 --> 00:45.640
And by now over 200,000 students have taken this course and I received over 40,000 reviews.

00:45.960 --> 00:52.320
But most importantly, I've iterated over time on your feedback, doing my best to keep this course

00:52.320 --> 00:54.320
better and better and to keep improving.

00:54.440 --> 00:57.040
And this is an all new, fresh recording.

00:57.040 --> 01:01.240
So after all the feedback I've received, I wanted to reorganize some lectures.

01:01.440 --> 01:08.400
I added more real world examples and discussions on topics like security and like production, added

01:08.400 --> 01:14.880
new sections, new lectures, and updated all of the code to match Lang chain latest and greatest version

01:14.880 --> 01:16.000
1.0.

01:16.280 --> 01:21.360
And it should match the following versions of 1.11.2.

01:21.360 --> 01:22.900
To, but we'll wait and see.

01:23.140 --> 01:29.020
And I've also added to the video some best practices of long chain to make our code more robust, more

01:29.020 --> 01:30.740
usable, and more composable.

01:31.140 --> 01:31.580
Cool.

01:31.820 --> 01:35.820
So last thing before we finish this video, I wanted to introduce myself.

01:36.100 --> 01:37.140
My name is Eden.

01:37.140 --> 01:39.700
I come from a backend development background.

01:39.740 --> 01:46.220
I was a backend development for many, many years, mostly in cybersecurity companies, and before 2023

01:46.260 --> 01:48.900
I had zero machine learning experience.

01:48.900 --> 01:55.620
However, I did jump on the generative AI train when it first came with large language models in 2023.

01:55.860 --> 01:58.300
I am a big fan and advocate of link chain.

01:58.540 --> 02:04.780
I've been heavily involved with the link chain ecosystem and open source package since its very beginning,

02:04.980 --> 02:10.820
and managed to witness the amazing transformation it had making it, in my opinion, the go to framework

02:10.820 --> 02:12.620
when building applications.

02:12.780 --> 02:17.940
I'm also a public speaker and I speak a lot about developing LLM applications.

02:18.700 --> 02:25.100
I'm an official link chain ambassador, and I really believe Link Chain had a huge role of commoditizing

02:25.100 --> 02:31.780
machine learning to make it accessible to people like me, with no PhD and no machine learning experience.

02:31.940 --> 02:37.660
Right now, I do consider myself as an AI engineer, and we'll talk about this new title more in this

02:37.660 --> 02:38.100
course.

02:38.300 --> 02:39.780
So that's it for this video.

02:39.820 --> 02:43.780
I hope you have a better idea of what you're going into and see you in the next one.
