ChatGPT and Generative AI Are Not Synonymous, Understand the Difference
June 7, 2023 /Technology/ — ChatGPT is a specific type of generative AI, but not all generative AI is ChatGPT. Generative AI is a broad term that refers to any type of AI that can create new content, such as text, images, or music. ChatGPT is a specific type of generative AI that is designed to generate text that is similar to human-written text.
ChatGPT is a large language model (LLM) that was created by OpenAI. LLMs are trained on massive datasets of text and code. This training allows them to learn the patterns of human language and to generate text that is similar to human-written text. ChatGPT is particularly good at generating creative text formats, like poems, code, scripts, musical pieces, email, letters, etc. Continue reading
What is Chain-of-Thought Prompting?
June 7, 2023 /Technology/ — Chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting is a method for improving the performance of large language models (LLMs) on reasoning tasks. CoT prompts encourage LLMs to explain their reasoning process by providing them with a few examples of how to do so.
CoT prompting was first introduced in the paper “Chain-of-Thought Prompting Elicits Reasoning in Large Language Models” by Wei et al. (2022). In this paper, the authors showed that CoT prompting can significantly improve the performance of LLMs on a range of reasoning tasks, including arithmetic, commonsense, and symbolic reasoning.

The business implications of the EU AI Act
May 230, 2023 /Business/ — The EU AI Act is a proposed piece of legislation that would regulate the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the European Union. The Act would create a framework for the development and use of AI that is aligned with the EU’s values, such as respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms.
The Act would classify AI systems into three risk categories: unacceptable risk, high risk, and low risk. Unacceptable risk AI systems would be banned, while high-risk AI systems would be subject to strict requirements. Low-risk AI systems would be largely unregulated. Continue reading
