Over the past few months, I have immersed myself in the intriguing world of Generative Pretrained Transformers (GPT) and Large Language Models (LLMs) at large. We have successfully developed an MVP of a corporate knowledge base and a coaching chatbot. Both projects allowed us to gain significant experience in utilizing GPT, an experience I am excited to share with anyone interested in this space.
My close circle is aware of another passion of mine: learning Spanish.
How to talk to your users when you are building a Startup? What is the best book to read on this topic? Three common mistakes everybody makes. Five great questions you can ask in every user interview. How to talk to users during three stages: idea stage, prototype stage and launched stage.

What I can highlight briefly:
for data scientists & IT managers: Transformers/LLMs expanded far beyond NLP, they will replace recurrent networks JAX framework worth trying for investors & founders: AI-first is now everywhere: new researches in biology, skyrocketing new companies for IPOs and new markets Semiconductor-related companies continue to accelerate and consolidate AI influences politics: army, safety & regulations Here is the link: https://www.
I’ve just read recently published Big Ideas 2021 by ARK invest (these guys are investing billions of USD into disruptive tech companies) and want to share it.
I really recommend to download and overview their slides for everybody who works in high-tech (yes, they are probably over-optimistic because of their role, but it’s really worth to look at): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z3LpfrAQLRM07JDTi1ZnHEHPeszgIp7O/view?usp=sharing
I am especially excited by what they call “Software 2.0” (deep learning).
