Agenda for Generative AI focused 127th DevClub.lv
- Antons Mislēvičs from C.T.Co will give a talk on “So you want to be a Machine Learning engineer in the age of Generative AI and Large Language Models?“.
ChatGPT was released in the end of 2022 and immediately grasped a lot of attention. People started discussing what “magical” things it can do, how it is the first AI that “understands” our world, and that soon it will leave many people without their jobs. It quickly went even to extremes, that such technology is dangerous, and should be banned or controlled by governments. In this session we will analyze what of this is hype and what is real. We will look into what the technology behind ChatGPT is (Large Language Models, Generative AI), and how such AI models are being trained. This will help us to better understand what such models can do, what are some common problems, and what you should be aware of when introducing such models in your projects. In addition, we plan to discuss what the raise of Generative AI and Large Language Models means for Machine Learning engineers – what are the core challenges, and some foundational technologies/concepts you should be familiar with.
