𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝘀 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 (𝗔𝗚𝗜)? I recently watched a fascinating podcast episode (https://lnkd.in/e4k2vMQd) that explored the limitations of large language models (LLMs) and what it will take to achieve AGI. The discussion highlighted that while LLMs are powerful in processing text, AGI requires integrating multiple data points—visual, auditory, and sensory information—into AI systems. As Yann LeCun has pointed out, complex reasoning and true understanding arise from this diverse data, not just from scaling up text-based models. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆’𝘀 𝗟𝗟𝗠𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲: 𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: LLMs excel at specific tasks, especially when tailored to your needs using a custom GPT. This approach integrates your unique data, making the model more effective for your specific use case. Such as style of writing, company USPs and corporate identity. They might not "understand" in the human sense, but they deliver impressive results where it counts—like writing marketing copy that aligns perfectly with your brand’s voice. Instead of getting caught up in the AGI hype, let’s make the most of what LLMs can do right now. What do you think—does AI need to understand, or is it all about getting the job done? Are you already working with customized GPTs? Let me know your use cases in the comments.

❓ Is AI the ultimate creative hack… or just another trap? Jack Threlfall and Kenneth Dan Jørgensen break down the myths and misconceptions surrounding AI and reveal what it really takes to make AI work in the creative production space. 🤖 In the episode, we discuss: • Why relying solely on AI can lead to shallow, surface-level content • How AI is helping transform quality assurance and translations • How SPRING Production uses AI to amplify, not replace, human creativity • Practical tips for avoiding the AI trap 📺 Watch now to discover how we make AI work. https://lnkd.in/dWkBmcEx #AskSPRING #creativeproduction #marketing #podcast #AI

🚨 We can't afford to run Large Language Models anymore🚨 In our latest AI Basecamp podcast episode Jonas Petersen and I dive deep into why Small Language Models (SLMs) are the future of AI. In this episode, we explore: - What are Small Language Models? - How do they compare to LLMs? - Real-world applications of SLMs - The future of AI democratization Want to learn more about how SLMs can revolutionize AI while being more sustainable?

💡 What does truly responsible AI development look like in practice? In the latest episode of the #TheAIFundamentalists podcast, the hosts talk about OpenAI system cards - documents that explain how multiple AI models and technologies work together to do specific tasks. The GPT-4 system card showcases transparency through voluntary red teaming (where teams actively tried to make the model produce bad outputs) and external ethical review - going far beyond regulatory requirements. Explore how this level of transparency and proactive testing is setting new standards in AI documentation and governance. Learn why these practices matter and how they might shape the future of AI development.

The other day I was listening to a new podcast https://lnkd.in/eF8TnHkt that was recommended by a Solution Street colleague, and on that podcast they started to discuss the concept of “model collapse”. I had not heard this exact term before, but I did wonder about the concept in the past, which is basically “what happens when new generative models start to create content based on other/previously generated content?” Does this lead to less unique and original results? Could this lead to AI tools becoming less accurate, reliable, and useful. As AI technology grows, some experts worry that we might see this happen. But is it really possible? Or can we prevent it with the right steps? What do you think? Is model collapse something we should be worried about in the future, or is it just a myth?

I've been listening to several podcasts lately, mainly discussing 'Would AI Replace the Workforce.' Summing up what I've heard, the main points are: > If you are not developing or adapting your way of work along with AI, sooner or later, you will fail. > AI is a tool for you to use to make your work faster and to aid you in various tasks. > The effective use of AI tools, such as Gemini or GPT, depends on prompting. I would suggest you search for the RICE method. >> At the end of the day, Generative AI is there to generate what we ask or request, but we are the ones who will filter it out and select the best fit for our goals or purposes.
