Aidan Gomez (Cohere) | Unlocking the Potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) | TransformX 2022

Aidan Gomez is the co-founder and CEO of Cohere, a provider of cutting-edge NLP models, and coauthor of "Attention is All You Need," one of the most-cited machine learning papers of all time, which introduced the world to the transformer architecture. Gomez and Scale CEO Alexandr Wang will discuss this paper's impact on the world and how it has led to the creation of large language models (LLMs) such as GPT-3 and BLOOM.
While the current generation of LLMs is impressive, Gomez will explain why they are not yet good enough for production applications and are inaccessible to most developers. He believes the industry must make it easy to access models and incorporate humans-in-the-loop to improve model performance so that the average developer without ML expertise can enrich their applications. In this fireside chat, Wang and Gomez will also discuss trends to watch for, including providing AI with tools such as knowledge bases to augment its capabilities and the advent of multimodal models with text, images, video, and audio fused in one model. Gomez will draw from his experience focusing on large-scale machine learning during his time at Google Brain, where he collaborated with many AI luminaries, including Geoff Hinton and Jeff Dean.

Incredible talk. Amazing how well it forecasts the future!

[@markmitchell590]

Interesting that he wants to loop back to using crippled search engines like Bing or Google for providing the online datasets for further learning. Dead Internet is real and an AI that thinks inside the box of existing big tech is unlikely to be producing novel results.

Interesting!

for the Transformers as long as we have Optimus Prime and no Megatron we should be fine

uhm....uhhhm ummm.

[@ericeubanks914]

Replace "Um" with ANY other word said that many times and see how utterly idiotic it sounds. Why do so many of these 30-somethings have this impediment? My mom told me I sounded like an idiot when I said Um.
Is this what happens when Moms are no longer allowed to correct their boys..?

​@@ericeubanks914better to sound like an idiot than being an idiot🤷😂
