OpenAI Board Should Resign

What happened at OpenAI was crazy on many levels. While I am an outsider to OpenAI's inner workings, I will go out on a limb and say that the people who made the decision to oust Sam Altman probably do not have the right experience for making this

Evaluating Gen AI Applications - Part I

When I worked in mergers & acquisitions way back, one of the things to do was generating project code names to help preserve the confidentiality of these highly sensitive projects. I remember that we have gone through all kinds of names, drawing inspiration from mountains, park names, bird names, car

Generative AI x Knowledge Graphs

Data wrangling tasks include data acquisition, data ingestion, data extraction, data cleaning, data transformation, exploratory data analysis, and data pipelining for ML tasks. Data variety, dimensionality, complexity, duplication, provenance can further complicate this data wrangling process.

Bigger is not better in machine learning

I heard an interview today featuring the Chief Scientist of Mosaic ML. One of the things Jonathan Frankle said is that bigger is not better. He, of course, is talking about machine model size (e.g., number of parameters). I posit that we can agree that bigger models may not

Security Robots

I recently learned that a Santa Fe high school is testing autonomous robots with multiple cameras to monitor the surrounding areas of the school to assist school security team. The autonomous robots learn the routes of the school, capture videos of the surroundings, and provide the footage to school'
