8. Summarization
Summarize the following in one sentence:
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the intelligence of machines or software, as opposed to the
intelligence of humans or animals. It is also the field of study in computer science that develops
and studies intelligent machines. "AI" may also refer to the machines themselves.
AI technology is widely used throughout industry, government and science. Some high-profile
applications are: advanced web search engines (e.g., Google Search), recommendation systems
(used by YouTube, Amazon, and Netflix), understanding human speech (such as Siri and Alexa),
self-driving cars (e.g., Waymo), generative or creative tools (ChatGPT and AI art), and
competing at the highest level in strategic games (such as chess and Go).[1]
Artificial intelligence was founded as an academic discipline in 1956.[2] The field went through
multiple cycles of optimism[3][4] followed by disappointment and loss of funding,[5][6] but after
2012, when deep learning surpassed all previous AI techniques,[7] there was a vast increase in
funding and interest.
The various sub-fields of AI research are centered around particular goals and the use of
particular tools. The traditional goals of AI research include reasoning, knowledge
representation, planning, learning, natural language processing, perception, and support for
robotics.[a] General intelligence (the ability to solve an arbitrary problem) is among the field's
long-term goals.[8] To solve these problems, AI researchers have adapted and integrated a wide
range of problem-solving techniques, including search and mathematical optimization, formal
logic, artificial neural networks, and methods based on statistics, operations research, and
economics.[b] AI also draws upon psychology, linguistics, philosophy, neuroscience and many
other fields.[9]
Artificial intelligence, originating in 1956, refers
to machine intelligence and encompasses a vast
field of study in computer science, which, after
advancements in deep learning post-2012, has
seen varied applications across sectors, from
search engines to autonomous vehicles, and
integrates diverse techniques and
interdisciplinary insights to achieve its goals,
including general problem-solving capabilities.

16. Tokens
● Incoming requests are translated to
tokens.
● There is always a restriction on the
number of input tokens.
● You are usually billed per token on top of
any other standard fee
17. Temperature
● How much divergence do you want
between results.
● Normally between 0.0 and 1.0.
● 0.0 is no divergence between results.
● 0.0 is great for decisioning and
categorization as it will reliably return the
same result.
● Non-zero is useful in creating general user
experience as the system is not parroting
the same answer every time.
Explain why the sky is blue in a single
paragraph
● The sky appears blue due to the scattering
of shorter wavelengths of sunlight by
atmospheric molecules, a phenomenon
called Rayleigh scattering.
● The sky appears blue because the short
wavelengths of blue light are scattered in
all directions by the atmosphere through a
phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering.
18. Top-K/N/P
Commonly refers to returning the top K/N/P items from an index search or LLM
query.
● Top-p sampling introduces randomness and creates more diverse and
dynamic output. Similar to and may be interchangeable with temperature.
● Top-k restricts the number of tokens to consider while sampling.
● Top-n is generally a more generic term for the top n items.

Much of the material included with this presentation will be grossly oversimplified. The materials are meant to provide insight into how things work to remove some of the mystery and improve confidence for developers who are not data scientists or statisticians.
The concept of AI has been around for nearly 90 years. In the last 5 years, with the introduction of Large Language Models (LLMs), it has exploded.
Recommendation systems have beenaround for a while,
The standard method is to perform a search which finds the most popular related web pages to your. If you are looking for something popular, and understand all the parts of their system, it works fine.
Rather than decision trees or some similar pattern, the decisions can exist within the model.
If you’ve ever built complex multi-dimensional decision trees, it’s extremely complex and difficult to maintain and follow.
Instead of providing an easily navigable site, fronting with an AI allows you to know exactly what the user wants.
Chat completion has roles associated with text do differentiate system and user information.
Text completion does not.
Embeddings are vectors stored in an index within a vector database:
SPlitting up a knowledge domain into smaller and more consumable chunks placed into a vector database
SPlitting up a You then search the vector database for relevant chunks
And pass the chunks along as context with your LLM query
Fine-Tuning is training an existing model on new data. Fine-tuning is used in training imital models. We are referring to training an general AI model on a specific knowledge domain.
StarCoder is for text-completions in generating the next code from
A fairly large response with different segments…
Request information
Token usage data
The list of choices, The index is an index of the choice. The message is the response.
The probability score for the token
ID of the token
The string representation of the token.
The actual sequence of tokens that ran against the mode
THere is no documented order for the results, so you’ll need to order them by score to know which is the best answer.
In Hugging Face, models have different input requirements.
To identify the requirements for a model, find the model in Hugging Face and click the deploy button.
That shows a drop down. Select the Inference API and it will show you implementation information…
This example is a masked text completion model which uses one set of inputs…
… a conversation models has different inputs.
Prompt engineering is learning how to speak to the model in the most effective manner. Working on your request text to provide the expected result will be a great deal of the work in implementing an AI-based solution.
Most off the shelf LLMs are very general. They can provide very vague and have difficulty disambiguating. If you need to discuss the relationships between countries, it works just fine. If you need to determine the relationships between cities in a country like Japan, you need to add in more domain data.
Even ChatGPT, an LLM, when asked cold “What is an LLM?” will respond with information about a Master of Laws post-graduate degree.
An LLM API is possibly the most complicated and least hardened system with which your application might interact. Be prepared for anything.
Unless you engineer your prompt to prevent it, LLMs will nearly always respond with answer to the questions you ask and not provide an insight into the models confidence in its answer. It will also just make up answers that seem correct at first glance, but have no basis in reality.
This is from BERT, one of the popular base LLMs. Understanding the bias of a model is important. Most models will have some information about the models known bias.
Nothing is static
Models may change
The truth may change
User needs change
Know what the model provider does with your data and make sure it meets the users’ expectations.
Any of these types of attacks can be performed with the prompt from use input or embeddings. Prompt injection may also be hidden inside the data in which the model was trained and be triggered by asking the correct question.
It may seem a bit premature, but the reality is that in the very near future, there will be two types of companies: those injecting AI-based technologies and innovations into their software and systems and those that fail.
LLMs are among the most critical turning points in the evolution of software development.
Just as Google made the internet usable, Amazon reduced the infrastructure investment necessary to bring applications to market, and the iPhone changes how information and services would be delivered forever, ChatGPT and Midjourney have begun the General AI movement for you and I.
Yes, AI is a buzzword and we are in an AI bubble, But remember, the dotcom bubble didn’t stop e-commerce when it burst.
You’ll be using AI to type less. There’s already a StarCoder plugin for VS Code for code completion suggestions.
In the near future, it’ll bootstrap projects and write testing skeletons to remove the mundane portions of development.
Having built a number of these, I can say with confidence that it will be cheaper and faster to use AI for logic engines and decision trees.
Junior developers will still have a place, but it will be different. The common tasks that I had as a junior, will be able to be written by AI in the next 10 years.
