The AI Meetup is Back In-Person: Large Language Models and Personalized AI!

Friends -- it's been a long time, but in-person meetups are coming back.
It's a new territory for companies and attendees, and the space is limited. Given all RSVPs are usually gone in minutes and Show/RSVP ratio is low, we will charge a nominal fee for this one, going for pizza/beer. Please manage your RSVP diligently.

We're happy to be back with our long-term friend Lukas Biewald, now the founder and CEO of Weights & Biases, at their office, and CognitiveScale.

(1) Understanding the Landscape of the Latest Large Models

There seems to be a new large ML model grabbing headlines every week.
Whether it’s OpenAI’s big releases like GPT-3, Dalle-2 or Whisper, or one of the many open source projects generating state-of-the-art models, like Stable Diffusion, OpenFold or Craiyon, these models have found their way into the mainstream. Lukas invites you to the W&B office where he’ll map the landscape for you and share how these teams use W&B to accelerate their work.

Speaker: Lukas Biewald, Founder and CEO, Weights & Biases

(2) AI-Powered Personalization Drives Decision Intelligence

AI-Powered Personalization drives decision intelligence through continuous learning and feedback loops. Profile-of-One, a key feature of our Cortex AI Platform allows enterprises to build a rich contextual understanding of key entities - such as customers, products, policies, claims, and providers through declared, observed and inferred data. The benefits of AI-Powered Personalization include acquiring new customers, delivering exceptional customer service, and engaging better with existing customers.
