Large Language Models for Business
DataCamp
Last updated June 30, 2026
A non-technical course on what large language models (the AI systems behind tools like ChatGPT) are and how they are changing the way businesses work. It builds confidence with the common terminology and techniques of the current AI era, then looks at how leading organizations are already putting these models to use — so you can recognize when applying one yourself makes sense. It also tackles the harder questions: the ethical and environmental sides of using large language models in business, including data privacy and sustainability. It is conceptual rather than code-based. You can sample the opening chapter before subscribing; the full course and its Statement of Accomplishment are part of DataCamp Premium.

A solid orientation for any professional who keeps hearing about large language models and wants a grounded, hype-free understanding of their impact and limits.
