In a recent visit to a client in Brazil, I had the opportunity to engage in great conversations about the importance of responsible AI practices in business and government. During our discussion, I referenced an article from MIT that sheds light on the use cases and warns about data bias in many legacy systems.

Excited to have Luca Antiga, CTO of Lightning AI, join us for the latest episode of the ODSC’s Ai X Podcast! In this episode, Lucas takes us on a deep dive into Small Language Models, from what they are to their practical applications. You’ll explore: 🔹How SLMs are trained and the importance of data quality 🔹Combining SLMs with Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and fine-tuning 🔹Why SLMs are more prone to hallucinations than LLMs and how to solve 🔹LLMs and SLMs in production–minimizing risks and maximizing value 🔹The problem of over optimizing on AI solutions Don’t miss this chance to harness the potential of your Small Language Models 🎧 Listen Now: https://hubs.li/Q02Gpv8S0 #AI #SmallLanguageModels #Podcast #ODSC

Ray Kurzweil's Bold Predictions: Will AI Transform Our World by 2045? Article: Ray Kurzweil on How AI Will Transform Energy, Manufacturing, and Medicine Summary: For over a decade, I've followed Ray Kurzweil's work. This renowned futurist predicts that around 2045, we'll reach a "singularity"—when technology advances so rapidly that it transforms human life in ways we can't control or reverse. Kurzweil believes this could lead to a merging of human and machine intelligence. In addition, according to Kurzweil, AI will revolutionize energy, manufacturing, and medicine. In this article, he's very optimistic about overcoming regulatory hurdles in medicine. What are your thoughts about his predictions listed in this article? https://lnkd.in/g_-jJ32w #ArtificialIntelligence #RayKurzweil #Singularity #AIFuture #TechInnovation United States Artificial Intelligence Institute United States Data Science Institute

I get that headlines sell. But seriously with this? Bet against OpenAI at your peril. They still have the strong and most versatile model, with more on the way. They have an unmatched customer base. They have unparalleled brand recognition. I’ve written myself about their setbacks with high profile departures. But put it in context - why they've left, who they've left for, and what it means for the company. Those departures have not impacted the model. Talent is everything- and OpenAI will be just fine. Competition doesn’t mean one side gets destroyed; that's a media-created concept. Speculation is fine- but don’t base your decision on whether to use a model on headlines like this. You need to get fluent on generative AI. ChatGPT is a phenomenal place to start. ++++++ My first course, digital and self paced, is Generative AI for Professionals: A Strategic Framework to Give You an Edge.

“AI’s “mirrors” look and sound a lot like us because they are reflecting their inputs and training data, with all of the biases and peculiarities that entails. And whereas other analogies for AI might convey a sense of living intelligence (think of the “stochastic parrot” of the widely cited 2021 paper), the “mirror” is more apt, says Vallor: AI isn’t sentient, just a flat, inert surface, captivating us with its fun-house illusions of depth.” the medium is the message, social networks the new medium and private networks the true repositories of value.

#AI is Running Large Scale Experiments on Humans How is it we have to take survey questionnaires through a rigorous review process and drugs have extensive trials that take 10-15 years before they can come to market but technology with far-reaching and unknown impacts like AI can be introduced without any external assessment? Does that strike you as strange? It does me. https://lnkd.in/erbPvD4s

Start Your Week with an in-depth AI article "Must-Read"! 🚨 Kicking off Monday with my latest Forbes article, where I explore Dario Amodei’s ambitious vision for the future of #AI. As CEO of Anthropic, Amodei argues that AI could compress 50-100 years of scientific progress into just a decade. While AI presents immense opportunities, the risks are just as significant, especially when it comes to governance and preserving human agency. This is a pivotal moment for us to shape a future where AI truly benefits society. I encourage you to dive in, share your thoughts, and join the conversation about the promise—and peril—of AI. Read the full article and start your week with a thought-provoking discussion. 👇 https://lnkd.in/gvhQUpgs If you enjoy articles like this one, please consider subscribing to my column on Forbes or resharing to spread the discussion. #AI #Technology #Innovation #Leadership #Governance #Healthcare #EconomicDevelopment #FutureOfWork #Ethics #HumanAgency
