Phase 19: AI Safety & Red Teaming β€” Start HereΒΆ

Build trustworthy AI β€” understand prompt injection, jailbreaks, PII leakage, bias, and how to test your systems for failure modes before they go live.

Why AI Safety MattersΒΆ

LLMs can be manipulated, can leak private data, perpetuate bias, and generate harmful content. Understanding these failure modes is essential for production AI.
