AI Project: Controlling Stable Diffusion with ControlNet (Sketch-to-Image)
Standard Stable Diffusion is amazing, but it’s chaotic. You type “cat,” and you get a cat, but maybe not the cat pose you wanted. Hugging…
AI Project: Efficient Fine-Tuning with LoRA and PEFT (Train LLMs on Consumer Hardware)
In Fine-Tuning (Part 3: Evaluation & Sharing), we fine-tuned a small BERT model. But if you try to fine-tune a modern LLM (like Llama 3…
AI Project: Train on Your Own Data (Loading Local Files with datasets)
So far, we’ve used load_dataset to pull pre-made datasets (like “imdb“) from the Hugging Face Hub. But the real power is training an AI on…
AI Project: Build a Simple RAG Chatbot (Hugging Face & FAISS)
This is the most important AI project of the “2026 Vision.” Building a Python RAG Chatbot is a practical example of how RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)…
Polars Project: A-to-Z Time-Series Analysis (Resampling & Moving Averages)
This “capstone” project combines all the Polars time-series skills you’ve learned. In this exercise, you’ll put Polars Time-Series Analysis techniques into practice. Goal: Take noisy,…
AI Project: Intro to Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) with PyG & Hugging Face
We’ve used AI to understand text, images, and audio. But what about relationships? For this, we need Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). A GNN is a…
AI Project: Manual Text Generation with Hugging Face (GPT-2)
In our previous Hugging Face with gpt-2 project, we used the text-generation pipeline. This is great, but it hides all the powerful options. In this…
AI Project: Intro to Reinforcement Learning (Hugging Face RL Agents)
So far, all our AI projects have been “supervised” (learning from data) or “generative” (creating new things). Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a completely different beast….
AI Project: Zero-Shot Object Detection (Hugging Face)
Zero-Shot Object Detection is one of the most exciting frontiers you can explore in this field. It’s the ultimate Computer Vision project, combining two of…
PyScript Project: Build a Full Data Dashboard (API + Pandas + Plot)
This is the project that ties all your PyScript skills together. In this guide, you’ll learn how to create a PyScript Data Dashboard. We will…
