AI-assisted coding with Codeium workshop

This interactive workshop takes approximately 3 hours 30 minutes and is designed for researchers who want to optimize their coding workflow using AI tools. You will learn how to configure and use AI coding assistants, focusing on Codeium 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.

Learning outcome

By the end of the workshop, participants will have a basic understanding of how to effectively use Codeium's features in their work, while ensuring safe and responsible use of AI technology.

Requirements

Participants will need a laptop with a pre-installed IDE (i.e., VS Code) to fully participate in the exercises (installation instructions will be provided). It is recommended to have some Python (or another programming language) experience).
