Programming just got a lot more accessible. French AI startup Mistral launched Codestral, its first-ever code-centric AI model. Codestral is a 22B parameter, open-weight AI model designed for code generation tasks. It’s trained on a diverse dataset covering over 80 programming languages—including Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, and more. Mistral’s model excels at completing coding functions, writing tests, and filling in partial code snippets. #AI #coding #techjob

What I will remember from 2 days of Tech Open Air: 1- If you do not understand the concepts of LLM and GPT by now you are well on your way to making yourself redundant in the workplace. 2- Developing your own language models is a nonsensical activity. Use the existing resources, adapt them with existing tools and inlay the focus on your own process and the ux. 3 - Web3 with crypto, blockchain, ... is beyond the hype and becoming a mature, parallel universe. But with the overload of meaningless terminology, the movement seems to be getting in the way of its own success. 4 - Quantum computing seems as promising as it was a few years ago but the road is still long. As for the speakers: The tech scene also has super stars. Man of the day was Colin Jarvis, the chierf architect of open AI Most insights I got during the talk of Joanna Bryson about new de AI act. Very clear and at the same time nuanced. Of the sattelite events I especially remember the Deep Tech Night of Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute HHI and Silicon Allee ; nice place, nice organization, nice people and catering that was 2/3 vegan. Merci toa and merci Bart Wolfs for joining me.

Spaced Repetition: Maximizing Memory Retention 🔄📖 Forget cramming—say hello to spaced repetition! This evidence-based learning technique capitalizes on the spacing effect, which suggests that information is better retained when revisited at spaced intervals. By strategically spacing out review sessions over time, spaced repetition optimizes long-term memory retention and facilitates efficient learning. Whether you're studying for exams or mastering new skills, harness the power of spaced repetition to supercharge your learning journey. In the workplace, continuous learning and skill development are crucial for staying competitive and adapting to ever-evolving demands. Spaced repetition offers a powerful method to enhance the learning and retention of critical information, making it an invaluable tool for professionals across various fields. Here’s how implementing spaced repetition can benefit an organization: 💡 Enhanced Training Programs: Training sessions are often packed with essential information that employees need to recall accurately. By integrating spaced repetition into training programs, organizations can ensure that employees retain key concepts and procedures more effectively. This approach reduces the need for repetitive, intensive training sessions, saving time and resources. 💡 Improved Employee Performance: Employees who regularly revisit and reinforce their knowledge are more likely to perform tasks with higher accuracy and confidence. Spaced repetition helps in cementing procedural knowledge and technical skills, which translates to fewer errors and increased productivity -particularly beneficial in high-stakes environments such as healthcare, finance, and technology. 💡 Facilitating Continuous Learning: In fast-paced industries, continuous learning is not just an option—it's a necessity. Spaced repetition supports a culture of continuous improvement by making learning a consistent part of the work routine. Employees can schedule brief review sessions that fit into their daily schedules, promoting ongoing development without overwhelming their workload. 💡 Retention of Complex Information: Certain roles require mastering complex or voluminous information, such as regulatory requirements, technical specifications, or industry standards. Spaced repetition helps in breaking down this information into manageable chunks and revisiting it periodically, ensuring deep understanding and long-term retention. 💡 Support for Professional Development: For career growth, professionals need to acquire new skills and knowledge regularly. Spaced repetition can be an excellent tool for self-directed learning and professional development. Whether learning a new language, developing programming skills, or preparing for professional certifications, this technique provides a structured approach to mastering new competencies. #SpacedRepetition #MemoryRetention #ProfessionalDevelopment

Why is AI (= LLM + RAG) failing to deliver in your use case?🤔 U did RAG, maybe fine-tuning & picking multiple LLMs, but still not happy?😓 Most probably, because your org is content-poor.🚦📝 Your engineers have not written enough technical documents.👩🏼‍💻📚 LLMs / RAGs need a lot of data. I mean a lot of docs. The more the better.🗣️ Hence, first, AI should be used to create documents quickly and be approved by experts.😎 This is why we first built Doc-E.ai Slackbot, to convert tribal knowledge into useful content.🧠💪🏼 Free Trial available at https://lnkd.in/gm-xrWD6 #community #slack #developer #plg #devrel #devmar #DX Phil Leggetter ☕ Jeremy Meiss Ravi Lachhman Aravind Putrevu Roy Derks Adam Frankl Fahmid Kabir Ariana Faustini Indy Sen Tejas Kumar Tessa Kriesel

Do LLMs pick their favorites? 🤔 (LLM Bootcamp Seattle 2024 with Luis Serrano) Imagine asking an LLM for 5 game name ideas. Does it secretly rank them in its head? Not quite! So, while LLMs are amazing idea generators, choosing the "best" one is still a human task! Want to know more about the LLM Bootcamp experience?

We’re talking about LLM security and model serialization attacks at #AIDevSummit. Literally thousands of models on HuggingFace are open to these attacks - and according to their TOS it’s your responsibility to look for those risks, not theirs. How many of y’all are making this a part of your roadmap? Guessing it’s vanishingly close to zero. So glad we’re starting to have these conversations about #SafeAI. Jeanavive Janssen #DevNetwork
