Where Do LLMs Struggle the Most?🤔 Think of an LLM as a student on an academic journey. It begins with pre-training, where models like GPT-4, PaLM and LLaMA absorb knowledge from massive amounts of text and multimodal data. Once they have this foundation, they move to fine-tuning. Here they specialize through instruction tuning, alignment techniques such as RLHF(Reinforcement Learning through Human Feedback) and efficient methods like LoRA. To make these models practical, researchers work on efficiency. Techniques like quantization and pruning shrink the computational load so they can run on real hardware. After that comes evaluation, where models are tested on summarization, translation, reasoning, classification and sentiment analysis. Challenges such as bias, memorization, safety, toxicity and high costs continue to demand attention. Despite these issues, LLMs are already reshaping medicine, education, law, finance, science, robotics and coding.

As generative AI tools become more widely available – and become cheaper, or even free, to use – they’re being abused by an array of actors, including state actors, to create deepfakes and sow disinformation online.In this session at Disrupt 2024, hear from CCDH CEO Imran Ahmed, CITRIS UC Director of the CITRIS Policy Lab […]

Critics say that "slop" videos made with generative AI are often repetitive or useless. But they get millions of views — and platforms are grappling with what to do about them.
