OpenAI offers free AI courses through its OpenAI Academy

OpenAI Academy is an initiative launched by the generative artificial intelligence company OpenAI —owner of ChatGPT, among other tools— which offers free access to educational resources about AI for people with different levels of experience, starting from the most basic level.

At OpenAI Academy, which can be accessed with a free registration, users will find AI courses and workshops, technical guidance offered by OpenAI experts, or access to API credits to use OpenAI models and build applications, among other services.

A few days ago, OpenAI Academy expanded its scope to more specifically include educators, students, those seeking employment, staff from non-profit organizations, or small business owners. All these profiles are offered educational resources that begin with basic AI literacy, in addition to access to tools and information about best practices in AI for its effective and responsible use.

The courses and other available content, which will be expanded in the future, are created in collaboration with educational institutions and organizations such as Common Sense Media, Georgia Tech, Miami Dade College, CareerVillage, or Goodwill, among others.

It's Nice That is an international digital platform that focuses its activity on fostering creativity.

Its mission is "to inspire the global creative community" through its website, social media, and live events called Nicer Tuesdays.

This website was founded in 2007 in response to a university assignment that consisted of "putting something in the public domain that makes people feel better about themselves."

With its content, It's Nice That aims to inspire anyone to be more creative in their work and in their life in general. "We believe that creative inspiration is for everyone and we want to open this world to the widest possible audience."

It's Nice That offers a multitude of stories related to creativity in multiple ways, from descriptions of original creative projects and creator profiles to practical advice and useful resources, as well as industry perspectives or reports on culture and lifestyle centered on creativity.
