So many wonderful memories from AMD's Advancing AI Day yesterday. If I had to pick one highlight, it would be our startup panel with Vamsi Boppana, our SVP of AI, alongside my favorite entrepreneurs. 1. Ashish Vaswani from Essential AI 2. Dani Yogatama from Reka AI 3. Amit Jain from Luma AI 4. Dmytro Dzhulgakov from Fireworks AI These founders have been pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with our MI300X GPUs, helping us confidently meet tomorrow’s AI demands today. Together with our ecosystem partners, they are a driving force behind advancing AI for everyone.

In this day and age of fast facts, it is always important to check your sources. I’m sure this will keep happening and the moral here is to take information shared with some balanced scepticism. "It seems the most accurate comparison would be against first-time test takers or to the extent that you think that the percentile should reflect GPT-4's performance as compared to an actual lawyer; then the most accurate comparison would be to those who pass the exam," study author Eric Martínez, a doctoral student at MIT's Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences said. “But it turns out the artificial intelligence (AI) model only scored in the top 10% when compared with repeat test takers. When Martínez contrasted the model's performance more generally, the LLM scored in the 69th percentile of all test takers and in the 48th percentile of those taking the test for the first time.” In this instance as with many others in the past: - The method of how the analysis took place was not well articulated - What they determined as a success criteria was not clear and straightforward - Over simplification coupled by the overall hypecycle of excitement of LLM made us forget to ask the right questions - Glad there are people who are working hard to provide deeper analysis and we need more of this.

Sonata Software recently invited me to contribute at their "Building a #Resilient Workforce: Strategies for Success" event. This was a panel discussion anchored by the effervescent and impactful Shubhra Singh and my co-panelists were their CDO Suresh HP and their Head of Corporate Development Sharmila Sherikar, both exceptionally well-read and articulate leaders. With Co-travellers so named, challenge number one was not even the topic, it was getting my tongue to navigate the "S" and "Sh" sound when my geographical ethnicity does not allow for it :-) On to the topic at hand. Shubhra moderated the session extremely well with her forceful and well-directed questions making us better panelists in the process. The first question that defined the boundaries of our conversation was "Why do we need a resilient workforce?" To me, resilience is fundamentally our ability to #navigate through and bounce back from adversity. Organizations that don't anticipate adversity can perhaps do without a resilient workforce. In a world in the middle of a #climatecrisis, chasing some 17 sustainable development goals, facing an existential #AI opportunity, and growing to 10 billion people, addressing adversity is how we will progress into a very challenging future. The next question allowed us to define resilience for the 300 strong audience. How does collaborative and cross-functional teamwork contribute to resilience of individual employees. How do leaders contribute to a culture of resilience? Resilience has two core ingredients: #Strength and #Elasticity. Strength comes from the individual and the community. The strength of the community is what prevents a culture from turning toxic. Hence, I would say cross functional / collaborative teamwork is the absolute essence of resilience. Elasticity is the ability to stretch which comes from both the individual and the organisation as well as from a strong sense of purpose they carry. The difference between #toxicworkplaces and purpose driven workplaces is that the latter stretch people to their elastic limits but no more. Leaders fashion #purpose on the fertile soil of #culture. I believe that there are two extremes of #culture that leaders navigate - a sharp elbowed culture and a warm chested culture. They also navigate two extremes of purpose - the ambiguous and the ambitious. The intersection of warm chested as well as ambitious culture is where breakthrough #innovation thrives. Similarly, warm chested and ambiguous tends to give us a Don Quixotic organisation...quite well meaning but essentially useless. [Covering the entire discussion is best left for another day.] However, this forced me to dig deep and seriously introspect as a Founder to find answers and I am grateful to team Sonata for listening-in and to Rashmi Prabha, Balaji Kumar and Samir Dhir for having me over.

The NASSCOM Innotrek Experience #9 / 101 In 2015, ActOnMagic was selected to participate in NASSCOM Innotrek, a special program where NASSCOM connects startups with global VCs. It was a wonderful program that provided exposure to TiE Silicon Valley and its ecosystem. We visited the offices of Google, Facebook, Y Combinator, and attended insightful sessions on building startups. These experiences were vital and provided founders with much-needed confidence. As a bootstrapping startup, I hustled a lot (like many other founders). I want to thank my friend Sambath and his family for hosting me at their residence for a week. I recall one VC who shared boldly about how VCs make money and how they choose to spend their time. If I remember correctly, VCs get a percentage of the funds they manage. If they return multiple X returns, they make multiples of that percentage. VCs focus on finding companies that can give 10x, 100x returns. At TiE Silicon Valley, the startup booths were very powerful! I learned lots of marketing tips. I remember a guy wearing a big backpack with messages about his startup and contact details on the outer side. Great exposure! An invaluable experience was travelling with other 39 startup founders in the bus, learning from their experiences and NASSCOM volunteers Reference: https://lnkd.in/gHJRXnxs Have a great day! #vc #startupstory #founder #actonmagic #sweetmantra #siliconvalley #Facebook #google #ycombinator #nasscom #innotrek

A must read for AI enthusiasts from Manish Bhide AI Governance is crucial in the Generative AI era to prevent incidents like the airline company's chatbot hallucinating and promising a non-existent discount. By adopting AI Governance principles, enterprises can ensure responsible AI adoption, mitigate risks, and maintain regulatory compliance.

Advancements in Natural Language Processing: Enhancing Machine Understanding of Human Language in Conversational AI Systems https://lnkd.in/ge6khK-A Dr. Kavita D. Hanabaratti, Dr. Ashwini S Shivannavar, Dr. Sujit N. Deshpande, Dr. Rajesh V. Argiddi, Dr. RVS Praveen, Dr. Suhasini A. Itkar. This paper aims to review the recent developments in Natural Language Processing and their implications to the improvement of current comprehension in conversational AI interfaces. The comparison of four leading NLP models, namely BERT, GPT, T5 and XLNet is carried out systematically with respect to the major tasks of conversational interfaces including text generation, sentiment analysis and question answering. Based on the performance predicate that I used, it is clear that BERT has a 91% accuracy level. 5%, GPT 88. 2%, T5 89. 6%, and XLNet 90. 3%. Precision scores were precise to the second decimal place for BERT at 92. of reserves as 1%, while keeping GPT at 87%. 9%, T5 at 88. 5%, while last comes the averagely performing XLNet at 89. 7%. On the aspect of recall rates, BERT had a slightly better performance at 90.8%, GPT at 86. 5%, T5 at 87. ; 87% BERT, 88% RoBERTa, 89% XLNet. 2%. The recognized F1-scores were as well highest in BERT where it obtained 91. 4%, and XLNet at 89%. 5%, T5 at 88. Metcash Group Ltd at 17, Coles Group at 28, Woolworths at 10, Metcash Ltd at 6% and GPT at 87. 7%. This paper shows that BERT surpasses GPT-T5 in terms of accuracy and precision; however, GPT and T5 are better suited for text generation applications. These models contain theoretical and practical value in analyzing their advantages and drawbacks, which makes the base for choosing the suitable tools of NLP for definite uses and developed future conversational AI appliances.
