الدورة كانت رائعة في شرح كيفية بناء وكيل ذكاء اصطناعي يقارن بين الموردين تلقائيًا بدلًا من قضاء ساعات في البحث اليدوي. أعجبني بشكل خاص الجزء الذي يوضح كيفية ترتيب معايير المقارنة حسب الأولوية، فهذا وفر علي الكثير من الوقت في عملي الفعلي بقسم المشتريات. طريقة الشرح كانت متسلسلة ومنطقية من البداية حتى بناء الوكيل الكامل.

ส่วนเปรียบเทียบข้อเสนอผู้ขายมีประโยชน์มาก อยากให้ลงลึกเรื่องการต่อรองอีกนิด แต่โดยรวมแนะนำเลยครับ

งานจัดซื้อของผมเร็วขึ้นเยอะหลังจากให้ AI ช่วยค้นหาและคัดกรองซัพพลายเออร์ให้อัตโนมัติ ส่วนการวิเคราะห์ข้อเสนอแต่ละเจ้าแล้วสรุปจุดเด่นทำได้ดีและนำไปใช้ได้จริง ตัวอย่างในคอร์สอิงสถานการณ์จริงทำให้เข้าใจง่าย เสียดายที่บทเรื่องเงื่อนไขสัญญายังสั้นไปหน่อย อยากได้รายละเอียดมากกว่านี้ ถึงอย่างนั้นก็คุ้มค่าและแนะนำสำหรับคนทำงานจัดซื้อครับ

Ich war überrascht, wie strukturiert der Kurs zeigt, einen Agenten für die Lieferantenrecherche aufzubauen, statt nur Theorie zu präsentieren. Die Übungen zum Vergleich von Angeboten waren direkt auf reale Einkaufsprozesse übertragbar. Für jeden im Einkauf, der noch stundenlang manuell Angebote sichtet, ist das eine echte Erleichterung.

Atuo em compras e sempre perdia horas pesquisando fornecedores e cruzando propostas na mão. Aqui aprendi a colocar a AI para fazer a pesquisa de fornecedores e comparar as ofertas comerciais automaticamente. A parte de analisar propostas lado a lado e destacar as melhores condições foi a que mais me ajudou no dia a dia. Gostei que os exemplos usam cenários reais de cotação, não casos genéricos. Montei meu primeiro fluxo de sourcing em pouco tempo e já economizei várias horas. Recomendo para qualquer um da área de procurement.

I went in skeptical about how much an AI agent could really help with supplier sourcing, but this course changed my mind fast. The instructor walks through building an actual agent that pulls supplier data, compares pricing and lead times, and flags red flags before you commit to a vendor, which is exactly the grunt work my procurement team hates doing manually. What stood out most was the section on structuring comparison criteria so the agent doesn't just spit out a generic ranked list but actually weighs the tradeoffs that matter for your industry. The pacing let me pause and rebuild each step alongside my own supplier list, and by the end I had something usable, not just a toy demo. I'd recommend blocking out a full afternoon since the later modules build directly on earlier ones.

サプライヤー比較の自動化は便利だったが説明がやや駆け足だった。
