AI & ML Research

LLM Cost and Architecture

Researchers are delving into the practicalities of running large language models locally, measuring the actual GPU electricity costs for eight models on an RTX 3090, finding that the cheapest option wasn't necessarily the smallest measured. Meanwhile, insights into Claude's inner workings and the future of world models are being explored explored. Understanding the computational burden of ML algorithms, especially generative AI on unstructured data, is highlighted, with autoencoders and latent space offering potential solutions offering solutions.

Developer Tools and Career Evolution

The landscape for analytics careers is rapidly changing due to AI, with professionals adapting to new realities adapting. For developers working with LLMs, leveraging Pydantic with OpenAI offers a streamlined approach to obtaining structured outputs, bypassing manual JSON parsing bypassing.
