MY TALKS

NLP : Past, Present & Future

Data / AI / ML

Asset 12SLIDES.png
Asset 21talk.png
Asset 11SLIDES.png

Not everyone knows this but Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a field that has been around since the 1950's. In this talk I will give an overview of the development of the field from its linguistic roots all the way to the BERT monsters of today. We will go over some of the challenges of processing texts as opposed of images, learn what's the difference between Lemmatization and Stemming and see why CNN networks will just not work for German..

Recommender systems are ubiquitous in our daily lives, from Netflix movie suggestions to product recommendations on Amazon. These systems use algorithms to analyze user data and make personalized recommendations based on past behavior.

In this introductory talk, we will explore the basics of recommender systems, including collaborative filtering, content-based filtering, and hybrid approaches. We will also discuss the challenges and ethical considerations involved in developing and deploying these systems.

By the end of the talk, attendees will have a basic understanding of how recommender systems work and the potential benefits and drawbacks of relying on them to make decisions. Whether you are a student, researcher, or industry professional, this talk will provide a useful introduction to this important field.

In this talk, we'll dive into the cutting-edge world of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generative AI (Gen AI), exploring their transformative impact on various domains and their seamless integration with Python.

The LLM Revolution: We'll kick off by introducing LLMs, the cornerstone of modern AI systems. Through applied demonstrations, you'll witness the remarkable capabilities of models like GPT-4, showcasing their language understanding, generation, and task-solving prowess.

Gen AI in Action: Next, we'll delve into the realm of Generative AI, where LLMs are harnessed to create novel content, from text to images and beyond. You'll see how Python frameworks like Langchain and Llama-Index empower developers to build powerful Gen AI applications, unlocking new realms of creativity and productivity.

Running Example: Evolving NLP Solutions
To illustrate the rapid evolution of NLP techniques, we'll present a running example of the Document Summarization task, demonstrating how this specific problem was approached in the past and now in 2024 with the help of LLMs and Gen AI. This hands-on segment will highlight the stark contrast between traditional methods and the game-changing potential of modern AI systems.

Connecting to Python
Throughout the talk, we'll emphasize the deep integration of LLMs and Gen AI with Python, showcasing code examples and practical applications. You'll learn how to leverage Python libraries and frameworks to harness the power of these cutting-edge technologies, empowering you to build innovative solutions.

What You'll Gain:
- A comprehensive understanding of LLMs and Gen AI, their capabilities, and their impact on various domains.
- Practical experience with Python frameworks like Langchain and Llama-Index for building Gen AI applications.
- Insights into the evolution of NLP techniques and the transformative power of modern AI systems.
- Inspiration to explore and leverage LLMs and Gen AI in your own projects
