Chat GPT 4 can pass the American state bar exam, but before you go expecting to see robot lawyers taking over the courtroom, hold your horses cowboys – we're not quite there yet. That being said, AI is becoming increasingly more human-like, and as a VC we need to start thinking about how this new wave of technology is going to affect the way we build and run businesses. What do we need to do differently? How can we make sure that our investment strategies are reflecting these changes? It's a brave new world out there, and we’ve got to keep the big picture in mind!
Sharing here with you what we at Cavalry Ventures found out during our Generative AI deep dive.
In this session, you'll get all the answers about how ChatGPT and other GPT-X models can be applied to your current or future project. First, we'll put in order all the terms – OpenAI, GPT-3, ChatGPT, Codex, Dall-E, etc., and explain why Microsoft and Azure are often mentioned in this context. Then, we'll go through the main capabilities of the Azure OpenAI and respective usecases that might inspire you to either optimize your product or build a completely new one.

The Future of AI is Generative not Discriminative 5/26/2021Steve Omohundro
The deep learning AI revolution has been sweeping the world for a decade now. Deep neural nets are routinely used for tasks like translation, fraud detection, and image classification. PwC estimates that they will create $15.7 trillion/year of value by 2030. But most current networks are "discriminative" in that they directly map inputs to predictions. This type of model requires lots of training examples, doesn't generalize well outside of its training set, creates inscrutable representations, is subject to adversarial examples, and makes knowledge transfer difficult. People, in contrast, can learn from just a few examples, generalize far beyond their experience, and can easily transfer and reuse knowledge. In recent years, new kinds of "generative" AI models have begun to exhibit these desirable human characteristics. They represent the causal generative processes by which the data is created and can be compositional, compact, and directly interpretable. Generative AI systems that assist people can model their needs and desires and interact with empathy. Their adaptability to changing circumstances will likely be required by rapidly changing AI-driven business and social systems. Generative AI will be the engine of future AI innovation.

Exploring Opportunities in the Generative AI Value Chain.pdfDung Hoang
The article "Exploring Opportunities in the Generative AI Value Chain" by McKinsey & Company's QuantumBlack provides insights into the value created by generative artificial intelligence (AI) and its potential applications.
This talk overviews my background as a female data scientist, introduces many types of generative AI, discusses potential use cases, highlights the need for representation in generative AI, and showcases a few tools that currently exist.
Generative AI models, such as ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion, can create new and original content like text, images, video, audio, or other data from simple prompts, as well as handle complex dialogs and reason about problems with or without images. These models are disrupting traditional technologies, from search and content creation to automation and problem solving, and are fundamentally shaping the future user interface to computing devices. Generative AI can apply broadly across industries, providing significant enhancements for utility, productivity, and entertainment. As generative AI adoption grows at record-setting speeds and computing demands increase, on-device and hybrid processing are more important than ever. Just like traditional computing evolved from mainframes to today’s mix of cloud and edge devices, AI processing will be distributed between them for AI to scale and reach its full potential.
In this presentation you’ll learn about:
- Why on-device AI is key
- Full-stack AI optimizations to make on-device AI possible and efficient
- Advanced techniques like quantization, distillation, and speculative decoding
- How generative AI models can be run on device and examples of some running now
- Qualcomm Technologies’ role in scaling on-device generative AI

Global Governance of Generative AI: The Right Way ForwardLilian Edwards
AI regulation has been a hot topic since the rise of machine learning (ML) in the “big data” era, but generative AI or “foundation models” tools like ChatGPT, DALL-E 2(now 3) and CoPilot, ike ML before them, may create serious societal risks, including embedding and outputting bias; generating fake news, illegal or harmful content and inadvertent “hallucinations”; infringing existing laws relating eg to copyright and privacy; as well as environmental, competition and workplace concerns.
Many nations are now considering regulation to address these worries, and can draw on a number of basic and hybrid models of governance. This paper canvasses models of mandatory comprehensive legislation (where the EU AI Act hopes to place itself as a gold standard model); vertical mandatory legislation (where China has quietly taken a lead); adapting existing law (see the many copyright lawsuits underway); and voluntary “soft law” such as codes of ethics, “blueprints”, or industry guidelines. Both the domestic and international regulatory scenes for AI are also increasingly politicised as the rise of "AI safety" hype shows. Against this backdrop what choices should smaller countries such as the UK and Australia make? will international harmonisation lead to a race to the top as with the GDPR, or the bottom - rule by tech for tech?
This is an article about Generative AI. It discusses what it is and the different techniques used to create it. It also goes into the potential uses of Generative AI. Some of the important points from this article are that Generative AI is still in its early stages but has already shown promising results. It is also important to note that Generative AI can be used to create fake data that is indistinguishable from real data.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning models are growing increasingly available, but many models offer predictions that are difficult to understand, evaluate and ultimately act upon. We present how scalable interactive visualization can be used to amplify people’s ability to understand and interact with large-scale data and complex models. We sample from projects where interactive visualization has provided key leaps of insight, from increased model explorability with models trained on millions of instances (ActiVis deployed with Facebook), increased usability for non-experts about state-of-the-art AI (GAN Lab open-sourced with Google Brain; went viral!), and our latest work Summit, the first interactive system that scalably summarizes and visualizes what features a deep learning model has learned and how those features interact to make predictions. We conclude by highlighting the next visual analytics research frontiers in AI.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

A team at Google
Brain introduces
transformers, a new
NN architecture
used initially in NLP
models.
Ian Goodfellow and
his team develop
GANs which
opened the door to
increasingly
accurate & varied
outputs.
LSTM, a new gating
unit together with
GRU, allows RNN
models to capture
long-term
dependencies &
improve NLP
models’ results.
Hidden Markov
Models (HMMs)
and Gaussian
Mixture Models
(GMMs) were
introduced as one
of the first
generative models
to generate
sequential data.
Ivakhnenko with
his work showed
that deep neural
networks have the
potential to learn
complex patterns
& create diverse
outputs.
RNNs are first
introduced in the
1980s. Their
recursive nature
allows the models to
learn information
from the previous
time steps, but they
struggle with long
term dependencies.
Open AI releases a
paper on how
combining
transformers &
unsupervised pre-
training greatly
improves NLP
models.
NLP language
models start
adopting
transformers such
as Bert, GPT-2 &
ELMo.
The Variational
Auto-encoder
(VAE) is
introduced, which
is still an
underlying concept
of stable diffusion.
Chat GPT-3 sets
the beginning of
the Generative AI
“gold rush”.
The first multimodal
models such as CLIP
start appearing, where
vision and language
are combined allowing
it to be trained on a
massive amount of
text and image data.
Chat GPT-4 vastly
outperforms its
predecessors and
different use-cases for
GenAI start appearing.
Generative AI starts
outperforming humans
consistently.

These models tackle a
large market, but have
limited defensibility due to
an unclear GTM.
Focusing on specific industries will allow for
better GTM strategies & higher defensibility for
specific use cases
Commoditisation.
Open-source models are already being
trained on similar amounts of data than
closed-source ones and are leveraging on
similar transformers algorithms, hence
drastically reducing margins for
differentiation.
New wave of diversification
The market will rapidly mature and
diversify as more pre-trained models
emerge. New model designs will offer more
choices for balancing size, transparency,
versatility and performance.

Fact or Fiction? Fake content is a challenge as
misleading information can be easily created
with generative AI. Privacy matters. Several regulatory challenges
appear in terms of compliance.
Investors beware. Italy’s temporary ban and
Britain’s data watchdog warning highlight the
importance of compliance when assessing
GenAI companies.
Concerns have been raised regarding
potential biases in content generation &
impacts on employment, warranting
careful data selection and bias
mitigation to avoid perpetuating
societal issues.
