By now, you've definitely heard about AI. Maybe you've wondered how you can use AI to help you work in R. This free course will show you how to do just this.

You'll learn to use AI in both the RStudio and Positron editors as well as in R packages such as {ellmer}, {pal}, and more. You'll use tools like GitHub Copilot and the Codeium extension in order to help you write code.

AI can be an incredibly powerful tool – if you know how to use it correctly. In this course, you'll learn how to get AI to help you write code for working with quantitative data. And, if you've got qualitative data, AI can help too! This course will show you how to use AI to translate text, summarize, identify themes, and more.

It is often said that AI won't take your job, but someone using who knows how to use AI might. Don't get left behind: learn how to use AI in your work. This free course can show you how.

About the Instructor

I’m not a hardcore quant (my PhD is in anthropology).

I’m not a coder ready to jump on you for any small mistake. I want to help others avoid the pain that I went through learning R.

A teacher at heart (shoutout to my former second grade students), I make R less scary and more fun (yes, fun).

Amazing course!!

Awesome course! It helped me understand the nitty-gritty parts of coding with R that I had struggled with so far. David is an awesome instructor who explains everything in an easily understandable manner. And if you still struggle, there's always the repeat button. :)

For me, the course was set up very good and understandable for getting into R. I think it was very well done and serves as a good basis for starting to work with R!

Hi! This course is just the simplest way I have found to understand R. Thanks a lot!

I consider myself lucky as I found Mr. David's courses in R. I loved every single tutorial in this course. What I love most about this course is that it teaches you bit by bit and step by step, literally from zero to hero. I'll recommend these tutorials to anyone interested in R programming. I'll take the next course, "Going Deeper with R." I have no intention of stopping until I finish every tutorial on this website. Thank you so much, Mr. David. I owe you a lot. Greetings from Egypt.

I loved your teaching skills. I had some doubt before, now most of the things are clear after watching your videos.

I started learning R and GGPLOT by relying on books (e.g., R for Data Science) and youtube. This left me with a fragmented knowledge, since few of these sources approached teaching R and GGPLOT from a holistic manner. Getting Started with R patched up many of those holes, while giving me with invaluable tips as to how to secure future advise and support.

Started today with the "Getting started with R" course and although being already a not-so-bad R user clarity and some helpful tricks proved really great. Looking forward to attend the other courses. Thank you!
