In this episode, we discussed that LLMs aren't an answer to all AI-based problems. If you are trying to automate your factories, if you are trying to bring in predictive maintenance, if you want to do smarter planning, in all these automation tasks, LLMs are one part of the answer and aren't the entire answer. And so, the breakthrough in AI in the last couple of years in neural networks and language models alone isn't sufficient for us to get to this world. We dream of this world of AI-based automation and what it will do for us. It's got the potential, but there is an X factor that's still mi ..read more

Learning systems with humans date back to almost 5,000 years ago. And these learning systems have what allowed us to progress as a society. Being able to teach other people what we know and share knowledge has been the foundational pillars of our evolution and civilization. And interestingly, these learning systems are not unique to just humans. Animals also have these learning systems. When you look at orcas, dolphins, the higher-order intelligent animals spend time training and teaching their young ones. In the last 50 to 60 years, we have not just been teaching humans how to learn, but we h ..read more
