Project feedback
It was a remarkable opportunity to collaborate with the company on this AI-based project. The project manager was well-versed in the project and considered various platforms to minimize unnecessary initial time, allowing students to concentrate better on development. In terms of the platforms and development tools, students were either already familiar with these platforms or able to learn them quickly. The project manager conducted weekly meetings and was always willing to spend time discussing any issues with the project. This project combined practical work with scenarios that connect academic learning to real-world applications.

Overall, I enjoyed working on this project! Receiving hands-on experience in working on a chatbot model has further increased my curiosity in this field. I also enjoyed learning about HuggingFace, Confluence, and Langchain and the application of these platforms and modules in the professional world.
