Just for the right order of history here - this prediction disparity is false - GPT-3 came out in 2020 and a decent slew of researchers and startups had access in 2021. Though unreliable, slow and costly, davinci could mimic chats back then

Does anyone else get the sense that the definition has been bastardized by the conflation of the two concurrent previous uses of "agent"? i.e. in AI, biology and informatics, "Agent" typically meant something: That had a

Probably a multilingual version will be needed, like with BERT and RoBERTa. I should hasten to add for multi language tasks(beyond detection), either simpler methods for tasks like multiple language classification/prediction(e.g. word

Agentic AI comes out of historical AI, systems computing and further back biological/philosophical discussion. It's not about tool use although ironically, animal tool use is a fascinating subject not yet corrupted by the hype aro

I agree with you as a technical guy. It's not the worst. But as to why is happens: If your business-focused founder or Marketing guy is going to the conference, it'll be Youtube, even though Vimeo is accessible. Unless you go make

Yep. I have responded in another post with some stats/surveys. Exactly, the aggregation of people hides the trends, and the fact that a 35 year old is not competing with other 35 year olds, but also with other 21 year olds working at c

What's interesting is that the people who are able to predict and come up with the idea (e.g. a researcher using AI in 2021) are often not the best ones to execute on it (typically, lack of experience or capacity to handle the pain of
