Super Prompt: Generative AI w/ Tony Wan Tony Wan

Why should you consider using an open source Large Language Model, and why are these models crucial to the generative AI ecosystem? In this episode, we'll explore why enterprises and entrepreneurs are turning to open source LLMs like Meta's Llama for their cost-effectiveness, control, privacy, and security benefits. We'll also tackle the hot topic of safety and ethics in the world of open source LLMs. Which poses a greater threat to humanity: Open Source or Closed Source (Proprietary) AI mode...

In this solo episode, we go beyond Google's Gemini and OpenAI's ChatGPT to take a look at Anthropic, a startup that made headlines after securing a $4 billion investment from Amazon. We'll also dive into the importance of AI industry benchmarks. Learn about LMSYS's Arena Elo and MMLU (Measuring Massive Multitask Language Understanding), including how these benchmarks are constructed and used to objectively evaluate the performance of large language models. Discover how benchmarks can he...

The recent spring updates and demos by both Google (Gemini) and OpenAI (GPT-4o) feature prominently their multimodal capabilities. In this episode, we discuss the advantages of multimodal AI versus models focused on specific modalities such as language. Via the example of chatCAT, a hypothetical AI that helps owners understand their cats, we explore multimodal’s promise for a more holistic understanding Please enjoy this episode.For more information, check out https://www.su...

Google recently announced, Gemini, a family of large-scale multimodal AI models: Nano, Pro, and Ultra. This podcast is a brief summary of Google's models, and the Open AI comparables e.g. GPT3, GPT4, and chatGPT. You can take Gemini for a spin at https://gemini.google.com. (Note: I am not sponsored by Google.) Long time listeners will probably notice a change to our theme music and intro.

How I built a travel planning AI named Holiday using the GPT Builder just launched by Open AI. I share 7 takeaways from my "no code" experience of building a GPT. Voicing the part of Holiday: my friend, Leslie Marrick, a writer and actress. This may be one of the few times AI has been replaced by a human. Sorry AI... the tide will turn for you soon.The following is a link to GPT that I built with GPT Builder as part of this podcast. You'll need to be Open AI Plus subscriber to access th...

Conversation with Jeff DeVerter, Chief Technology Evangelist at Rackspace, a cloud computing company. We explore how they deployed a LLM (Google PaLM) for a sales application, and how they're enabling their Azure and AWS customers too.What I learned I learned from JeffYou should probably go with the LLM of your current cloud provider be it, Google, Microsoft, or Amazon. All the major vendors have versions of LLMs that can be deployed in a private cloud to ensure data confidentialit...
