About this Event
Please note that this is a pilot workshop, which means that we are teaching new and exciting lesson material. The additional purpose of pilot workshops is to collect information and feedback that can be used to polish content and make the lesson more reusable by other instructors.
The workshop will take place at Science Park 402, 1098 XH Amsterdam. Please note that lunch and drinks at the end of the workshop are included.
Join our interactive workshop “AI-assisted Coding with Codeium”, designed for researchers who want to optimize their coding workflow using AI tools. Whether you are new to coding or experienced, this class will guide you through practical techniques to improve your coding experience. You will learn how to configure and use AI coding assistants to generate, refactor, and improve code, automate repetitive tasks, and improve documentation. Essential topics such as debugging with AI assistance and managing ethical and security considerations in AI-powered coding environments will also be covered.
This hands-on session is perfect for anyone who wants to simplify their coding process, save time, and write cleaner, more efficient code. By the end, you will have the skills you need to integrate AI into your coding practice with confidence. Basic programming knowledge and experience with a code editor such as VS Code are recommended.
The workshop is based on the teaching style of the Carpentries, and learners will follow along while the instructors write the code on screen. More information can be found on the workshop website.
Cancellation
If you won’t be able to attend, please cancel your registration (by following instructions here) so that we can offer your seat to someone on the waiting list.
Audience
The workshop is aimed at PhD candidates, postdocs, (assistant-)professors and other researchers and also open for research support staff and research software engineers. We offer tickets for researchers who are affiliated with Dutch research institutions. We also offer industry tickets for attendees who are not affiliated with Dutch research institutions. We do not accept registrations by Master students.
