    What we learned about LLM’s in a year

    In this one year anniversary episode of the podcast, your show hosts look back on what they have learned and observed over the past year. They made the following observations: Reflection on a year of LLM development: The hosts discuss how the LLM ecosystem has rapidly evolved over the past year, moving from initial hype to a focus on practical applications with demonstrable ROI. Changes in prompt engineering: They note a shift from instruction-based prompting to example-based prompting, finding the latter more reliable. Impact on software development: LLMs have significantly increased productivity and are changing how software is architected and developed, making previously complex tasks much simpler and faster to implement. Shifting skill requirements: The hosts predict that soft skills will become more valuable for engineers, while specific programming language knowledge may become less crucial due to AI assistance. Evolving perspectives: Both hosts describe how their views on LLMs have changed, moving from initial skepticism to greater optimism about the technology's potential and impact. Future of the field: They emphasize the transformative nature of LLMs on the entire field of computer science and encourage newcomers to stick with it, predicting that those who do will become the experts shaping the future of technology. ---Continue listening to The Prompt Desk Podcast for everything LLM & GPT, Prompt Engineering, Generative AI, and LLM Security.Check out PromptDesk.ai for an open-source prompt management tool.Check out Brad’s AI Consultancy at bradleyarsenault.meAdd Justin Macorin and Bradley Arsenault on LinkedIn.

    Validating Inputs with LLMs

    In this thought-provoking episode, AI experts Bradley Arsenault and Justin Macorin delve into the cutting-edge world of input validation using large language models (LLMs). The hosts explore how this innovative approach is transforming traditional data validation methods in software applications.The conversation begins with a look at conventional input validation techniques, primarily relying on regular expressions (RegEx) for basic text field checks. Justin then introduces the concept of using LLMs to validate more complex inputs, such as job titles or descriptions, which go beyond simple character-level validation.Throughout the episode, the hosts discuss the numerous benefits of LLM-based validation, including improved downstream results in AI systems, reduction in nonsensical inputs, and the potential to decrease reliance on customer support teams. They also tackle the implementation challenges, such as increased computation costs and the risk of rejecting valid inputs in edge cases.Bradley and Justin provide insights into the technical aspects of implementing LLM validation, discussing where in the software architecture to place these checks and how to handle user feedback. They also explore future improvements to the system, such as incorporating probability thresholds and enhancing error messages with helpful examples.The episode concludes with a balanced view of the trade-offs involved in adopting this new approach. While acknowledging the potential for user resistance and increased complexity, the hosts argue that the long-term benefits of cleaner data and reduced errors make LLM-based validation a promising frontier in software development.This episode offers valuable insights for developers, data scientists, and product managers looking to enhance their applications' data quality and user experience through advanced AI techniques.---Continue listening to The Prompt Desk Podcast for everything LLM & GPT, Prompt Engineering, Generative AI, and LLM Security.Check out PromptDesk.ai for an open-source prompt management tool.Check out Brad’s AI Consultancy at bradleyarsenault.meAdd Justin Macorin and Bradley Arsenault on LinkedIn.
