The realm of artificial intelligence in healthcare holds immense potential, however, it is crucial for medical facilities and institutions to approach its implementation with careful consideration, as highlighted by Daniel Yang, the VP of AI and emerging technologies at Kaiser Permanente. With a background as a medical practitioner, Yang stressed the importance of substantiating the
Microsoft researchers recently introduced a groundbreaking AI model called SpreadsheetLLM, which aims to revolutionize the way spreadsheets are understood and utilized in the world of enterprise AI. This innovative approach combines the power of large language models (LLMs) with structured data found in spreadsheets, addressing the challenges of working with complex spreadsheet formats and opening
When looking at the world through a computational lens, one can start to see patterns and processes that were previously hidden. Robert Oppenheimer, in the movie Oppenheimer, is challenged by Niels Bohr to not only see algebra as mere sheet music but to truly hear the music. Oppenheimer describes how he can feel the machine
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated exceptional performance in answering simple questions efficiently. However, when faced with complex tasks that involve reasoning and planning, LLMs often struggle. While prompting techniques such as “System 2” have been effective in enhancing the reasoning capabilities of LLMs, they come at the cost of increased computational complexity and slower
The Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) technique has gained popularity for scaling large language models (LLMs) while keeping computational costs manageable. However, current MoE architectures have limitations that restrict them to a relatively small number of experts. The classic transformer architecture used in LLMs relies on attention layers and feedforward (FFW) layers, with FFW layers contributing a significant
In a recent discussion at VentureBeat’s Transform 2024, Elastic CEO Ash Kulkarni and DocuSign CPO Dmitri Krakovsky shed light on how generative AI is reshaping enterprise search and contract management. The conversation underscored the increasing significance of AI-powered search capabilities for businesses grappling with extensive data volumes and intricate contractual relationships. One notable advancement in
In recent years, the prevalence of generative artificial intelligence has become impossible to overlook in the online world. From AI-generated summaries on Google search results to AI tools being integrated into social media platforms like Facebook, the utilization of AI technology has become increasingly common. This surge can be attributed to OpenAI’s release of ChatGPT
AI has been making strides in the field of education, with tools like Khanmigo guiding students through problems step by step. Although Khan Academy envisions personalized tutors for every student, experts like DiCerbo highlight the more limited role of AI in helping students when they get stuck. While Khanmigo has shown promise in assisting students
In the age of the internet, false information can spread rapidly, causing confusion and chaos in its wake. A recent example of this is the fake news story about Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky’s wife purchasing a Bugatti car with American aid money. This piece of Russian disinformation originated on an unknown French website but quickly
