AI Explainer: Foundation models and the next era of AI
We have had quite good text generation models for some time. You could actually prompt a model with asking it to describe an imaginary scene, and it will produce a very good description of what you have asked it to do. And then we started making a lot of progress on image generation, as well. With models like DALL-E 2 and Imagen and even models coming out from such startups like Midjourney and Stability AI, we have been getting to […]
Read moreAI Frontiers: The Physics of AI with Sébastien Bubeck
Today I’m sitting down with Sébastien Bubeck, who leads the Machine Learning Foundations Group at Microsoft Research. In recent months, some of us at Microsoft had the extraordinary privilege of early access to GPT-4. We took the opportunity to dive deep into its remarkable reasoning, problem-solving, and the many other abilities that emerge from the massive scale of GPT-4. Sébastien and his team took this opportunity to probe the model in new ways to gain insight into the nature of […]
Read moreWhen Should You Use .__repr__() vs .__str__() in Python?
One of the most common tasks that a computer program performs is to display data. The program often displays this information to the program’s user. However, a program also needs to show information to the programmer developing and maintaining it. The information a programmer needs about an object differs from how the program should display the same object for the user, and that’s where .__repr__() vs .__str__() comes in. A Python object has several special methods that provide specific behavior. […]
Read moreSumming Values the Pythonic Way With sum()
Python’s built-in function sum() is an efficient and Pythonic way to sum a list of numeric values. Adding several numbers together is a common intermediate step in many computations, so sum() is a pretty handy tool for a Python programmer. As an additional and interesting use case, you can concatenate lists and tuples using sum(), which can be convenient when you need to flatten a list of lists. In this video course, you’ll learn how to: Sum numeric values by […]
Read moreExecuting Python Scripts With a Shebang
When you read someone else’s Python code, you frequently see a mysterious line, which always appears at the top of the file, starting with the distinctive shebang (#!) sequence. It looks like a not-so-useful comment, but other than that, it doesn’t resemble anything else you’ve learned about Python, making you wonder what that is and why it’s there. As if that wasn’t enough to confuse you, the shebang line only appears in some Python modules. In this tutorial, you’ll: Learn […]
Read moreWhat is An AI Strategy and Why Every Business Needs One
This article discusses what an AI strategy means, the different types of AI strategies that you should know about, and how as a leader you can get started with an AI strategy. What Is An AI strategy? An AI strategy may seem like a complicated business-speak, but it’s simply a vision or high-level plan for integrating AI into the organization, such that it aligns with your broader business and automation goals. This high-level plan can be a: Product-level AI strategy (I […]
