Andrew Ng Launches 2-Hour Agent Course
blaizedsouza · x · 2026-07-16
Andrew Ng has released a 2-hour course in collaboration with Anthropic, focused on building agentic skills from scratch.
The curriculum covers: how to build agent skills with Claude, Claude's pre-built skills, the differences between skills and tools / MCP / subagents, and skill design for long-running agents. The recommender also suggests pairing it with the article "Loop Engineering: The AI skill every builder needs in 2026," emphasizing that many still manually form a "human-in-the-loop" cycle with agents instead of properly engineering the process.
