Uncertainty  

Is AI a hype or is it real? Is it going to be more intelligent than human? Will our jobs be replaced by bots? If so, when? What skills do we need to focus on to better position ourselves in upcoming AI-age? I believe answers to all these questions have a lot to do with what are use cases of AI, how AI adds value to various industries of human socienty, which is an uncertainty that is being unfolded and I expect will unfold in the upcoming years. So I created the uncertainty of What are main use cases of AI on SaveNowClub, a platform to track uncertainties and their timelines by curating, taking notes, and summarizing information from the Internet as well as industry insiders, to track every key developments in timeline format under this important topic.

    [1hr Talk] Intro to Large Language Models - YouTube

    These are what I personally think are most thought-provoking takeaways regarding Large Language Models (LLM) from an one-hour YouTube video tutorial by Andrej Karpathy, Director of AI at Tesla. The tutorial used plain language to explain #LLM (Large Language Models) #UnderTheHood, how it works and how to build them. In addition, it also covers Andrej's vision of how LLM will evolve in next few years as well as a number of LLM's #cybersecurity vulnerabilities.

    Regarding how LLM works, Andrej acknowledged that little is known in full detail despite the facts that we know how billions of parameters are dispersed through the neural network and we know how to iteratively adjust them to make the LLM better at prediction but we don't really know how the billions of parameters collaborate to do it. Therefore he recommended we think of LLMs as mostly inscrutable artifacts.

    Regarding LLM's future, Andrej predicted an #LLM will evolve into an Operating System in a few years that

    • can read and generate text
    • has more knowledge than any single human about all subjects
    • can browse the internet
    • can use the existing software infrastructure (calculator, Python, mouse/keyboard)
    • can see and generate images and video
    • can hear and speak, and generate music
    • can think for a long time using System 2
    • can "self-improve" in domains that offer a reward function
    • can be customized and finetuned for specific tasks, many versions exist in app stores
    • can communicate with other LLMs

    华尔街松一口气:ChatGPT没通过这项考试

    由摩根大通(JP Morgan)人工智慧研究人员和大学学者所组成的团队,向ChatGPT和GPT-4这2个人工智慧大型语言模型提出了CFA风格的问题,以测试是否能够进行复杂的金融推理。

    研究显示,ChatGPT也加入了“不合格”的行列。当被问及涉及大量选择题答案的一级模拟问题时,ChatGPT犯了很多“基于知识的错误”。GPT-4也犯了同样的知识性错误,但没ChatGPT那麽严重。

    据报道,模型在CFA二级考试中的表现比一级差,主要是二级考试要求对股权投资和财报模型的推理分析。不过,研究人员表示,如果提示词足够好,GPT-4仍有能力通过CFA一、二级考试。

    他们认为最终企业内部不会运行一个GPT-4或谷歌Gemini那样的超大模型,而是根据不同数据子集创建150个独特的模型,聚合参数超过万亿。

    相当于把GPT-4等大模型内部的Mixture of Experts(专家混合)架构扩展到整个系统,称为Composition of Experts(专家合成)。

    在企业运转的每个节点运行一个完整且经过专门调整的基础模型,分别用法律语料库、制造语料库、风险管理语料库、财富管理语料库、客户销售语料库、客户支持语料库等等不同数据训练。

    这些专家模型之间通过一种软件路由或负载平衡器联在一起,收到推理请求后决定具体向哪个模型推送提示词。

    这一策略与GPT-4和谷歌Gemini等做法形成鲜明对比,巨头大多希望创建一个能泛化到数百万个任务的巨型模型。

    分析师认为技术上可能谷歌的做法性能更强,但SambaNova的方法对企业来说更实用。

    没有任何一个模型或人能完整访问企业的所有数据,限制每个部门能访问的专家模型,就能限制他们能访问的数据。

    Become a Data Analyst using ChatGPT! (Full Guide) - YouTube

    This is my takeaway of a Youtube video tutorial of using ChatGPT to perform #DataAnalysis.

    Skills you need to learn

    In order for ChatGPT to perform a specialist role in a certain area, as part of #PromptEngineering skillset, you need to learn how to customize #ChatGPT to assume your role and achieve your goal in your specialist field. That means before using ChatGPT, you need to provide answers to the following two questions in Custom instructions for ChatGPT, a feature launched recently in July 2023.

    Question 1: What would you like ChatGPT to know about you to provide better responses?

    Example Answer:

    • Profession/Role: Yoga instructor
    • Key Responsibilities: Leading yoga classes, maintaining a safe and tranquil environment, guiding students in their practices
    • Knowledge or Expertise: Yoga philosophy, various yoga poses and sequences
    • Typical Challenges: Adapting teaching methods to suit different skill levels, maintaining a peaceful class environment
    • Current Projects: Virtual yoga classes

    Question 2: How would you like ChatGPS to respond?

    Example Answer:

    • Tone and Formality: Calm, peaceful and instructive
    • Level of Detail: Detailed pose descriptions and breathing techniques.
    • Preferred References: Yoga traditions, wellness literature
    • Examples or Analogies: Well-known yoga sequences, meditation techniques
    • Avoidance of Ambiguity: Clear and direct yoga guidance
    • Resource links: Yoga platforms, meditation apps

    What can ChatGPT do for you?

    Other than allowing you to upload data file, I observe the following data analysis capabilities from ChatGPT in the demo

    • Generate well-worded data dictionary for each column if column name is self-explanatory. For example: for Purchased column name, it came up with A binary variable indicating whether the user made a purchase (1) or not (0)
    • Remind you detail list of tasks given a general intent. For example: given a general intent of "cleaning data", it suggests a list of action items including Check for Missing Values, Data Type Verification, Outliers etc.
    • Carry out one or multiple tasks. For example: if instructed, ChatGPT will perform the data cleaning tasks in previous step on provided data.
    • Give suggestions to next step after completing a task.

    Overall Takeaway

    As a data engineer for over 10 years, features of ChatGPT that I see useful at this point are:

    • help me write technical documentations or tutorials.
    • generate well-worded column-level data dictionary if column names are self-explanatory enough.
    • give me suggestions of tasks given a certain intent or goal.

    At the same time, I observe the following limitations as of now:

    • Cannot use its analysis result now due to lack of ways to verify its results or prevent it from hallucinating.
    • Cannot use it to do innovative tasks or tasks that are not well-documented.
    • Cannot use it to analyze large amount of data due to limitation of compute power.

    Andrew Ng: Opportunities in AI - 2023 - YouTube

    • What AI is? A: it's like electricity, a general-purpose toolset.
    • What are major tools in AI toolset? A: supervised learning is the huge incumbent (worth over $100B for Google) and large-language model (LLM) or generative AI is the strong incoming-challenger.
    • 08:06 Low-code and no-code AI tools are making it easier for developers to create customized AI applications rapidly.
    • 11:47 Current AI value is concentrated in consumer software and the internet, but there is vast untapped potential in other industries.

    At its core, LLM or generative AI is supervised learning being used to repeatedly predict next word given a set of words as predictor variables. However, at application layer, LLM / generative AI has huge potential because it enables prompt-based AI which revolutionizes AI application development process.

    BloombergGPT: How We Built a 50 Billion Parameter Financial Language Model - YouTube

    This talk by David Rosenberg, Head of ML Strategy, Office of the CTO, Bloomberg covers #BloombergGPT, an experimental project by Bloomberg to create a ChatGPT-like large-language-model (#LLM) that serves both general purpose as well as domain-specific purpose.

    BloombergGPT is a 50-billion parameter LLM built using 570 billion tokens of language data, half of data are public, the other half are private.

    Areas that BloombergGPT performed better than peers are:

    • NER (named entity recognition) + NED (named entity disambiguation) task such as matching company mention with stock ticker
    • Text-to-BQL, BQL is Bloomberg in-house query language, for example: with input of Get me the last price and market cap for Apple, expect output of get(px_last, cur_mkt_cap) for (['AAPL US Equity']). Without previous knowledge of BQL, with few-shot learning of 3 example pairs of input and output, BloombergGPT can produce expected output correctly given input subsequently.
    • language interface for Bloomberg Terminal, for example, bring up chart given instruction of market cap of AAPL vs. MSFT
