Model Mania: Why so many models?

With robust and rapidly evolving model updates from extremely well funded startups like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere already in the market, as well as offerings like Bard from Google, it’s worth taking a step back to understand why the introduction of an open source model like Llama 2 is making such a splash in the online conversation. First, we should state the obvious that we sometimes forget: Despite the rapid improvements and commercialization of LLM models, there’s still some critical issues blocking or limiting success some important use cases.

Will AI replace humans?

One of the hot topics in the ecosystem has been the question “Will AI replace human jobs”? A lot of the discussion on the topic centers around the capabilities of the AI (ie can AI write marketing copy, can AI write emails etc), but I think the more important question is on HOW AI works. When I think about how AI works in this context, I don’t mean the guts of the LLM or diffusion model, but how in practice a process is applied the uses AI to create adequate or exceptional results (depending on what is needed). At Gen AI Partners we look at 4 models of human/AI interaction when designing systems. I’ll describe those models and then revisit where AI will augment humans and where it may replace human tasks.

Three Myths of LLM-based Application Limitations

The emergence of large language models (LLMs) such as GPT/ChatGPT has revolutionized the way we process information. However, myths surrounding the use of LLMs in applications can discourage people from fully utilizing their capabilities. It's important to distinguish between limitations of the applications that can be built with LLMs versus the properties of the models themselves. In this blog post, we will debunk three of the most common myths surrounding LLM applications and show you the incredible potential they offer.

Why we started Gen AI Partners

Like much of the software world, we were captivated by the potential capabilities enabled by the rapid advances in AI research and commercial tools. Complex user interaction systems that only a few years ago would have been aspirational product goals or major investments can now be delivered with only hours or weeks of development. However, the rapid pace of innovation and development can be as challenging as it is exciting. We are here to help with these challenges by marrying a constant study of the ecosystem, with decades of experience on building analytics and data intensive software.

To give a more detail on the expansion of the ecosystem…
