Perhaps they could be useful for the competition

The deadline for submitting the project for attempt 1 is over

We closed the form and assigned each one of you 3 projects to review. Don't forget that in order to receive a certificate you need to complete this peer review process.

You can find them here: https://courses.datatalks.club/llm-zoomcamp-2024/project/project1/eval

It's a great chance to learn from your peers!

Have fun and happy learning!

The deadline for submitting project attempt 2 is extended till October 7 EOD

Note that there will be no further extensions, so use the extra week wisely, and if you haven't started working on your project or haven't selected a dataset, do it now.

As always, if you have any problems, we will help you in slack.

Happy learning!

We added "bonus points" (up to 3 extra project points) that you can award to the projects you evaluate for something cool - when they went the extra mile in their project

For example:

- voice recognition
- CI/CD
- anything else you find interesting

Be sure to describe in feedback why you gave bonus points

If you already finished your evaluations, but you think the projects deserve extra points, you can update your submission

We've scored the projects from attempt #1! 56 of you have passed - congratulations!
