Video Highlights: Fine Tune GPT-J 6B in Under 3 Hours on IPUs
Did you know you can run GPT-J 6B on Graphcore IPU in the cloud? Following the now infamous leaked Google memo, there’s been a real storm in the AI world recently around smaller, open source language models, like GPT-J, that are cheaper and faster to fine-tune, run and perform just as well as larger models for many language tasks.
UVA Researchers Built an AI Algorithm That Understands Physics
Normally, when testing the behavior of materials under high heat or explosive conditions, researchers have to run simulation after simulation, a data-intensive process that can take days even on a supercomputer. However, with a deep learning algorithm created by Stephen Baek, Phong Nguyen and their research team, the process takes less than a second on a laptop.
ChatGPT: A Fraud Fighter’s Friend or Foe?
In this contributed article, Doriel Abrahams, Head of Risk, U.S., Forter, explores how ChatGPT can combine with social engineering to conduct fraud, some of the generative AI trends he anticipates will play out this year, and how existing fraud rings could use the technology to manipulate both businesses and consumers alike.
Top Data Science Ph.D. Dissertations (2019-2020)
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) recently published in its Notices monthly journal a long list of all the doctoral degrees conferred from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020 for mathematics and statistics. The degrees come from 242 departments in 186 universities in the U.S. I enjoy keeping a pulse on the research realm for my field, so I went through the entire published list and picked out 48 dissertations that have high relevance to data science, machine learning, AI and deep learning. The list below is organized alphabetically by state.
