Empowering Experts with No-Code AI

As AI becomes more accessible, a growing question is: should machine learning experts always be the ones training models, or is there a better way to leverage other subject matter experts in the business who know the use-case best? What if getting started building AI apps required no coding skills? As businesses look to implement AI at scale, what part can no-code AI apps play in getting projects off the ground, and how feasible are smaller, tailored solutions for  department specific use-cases?

Birago Jones is the CEO at Pienso. Pienso is an AI platform that empowers subject matter experts in various enterprises, such as business analysts, to create and fine-tune AI models without coding skills. Prior to Pienso, Birago was a Venture Partner at Indicator Ventures and a Research Assistant at MIT Media Lab where he also founded the Media Lab Alumni Association.

Karthik Dinakar is a computer scientist specializing in machine learning, natural language processing, and human-computer interaction. He is the Chief Technology Officer and co-founder at Pienso. Prior to founding Pienso, Karthik held positions at Microsoft and Deutsche Bank. Karthik holds a doctoral degree from MIT in Machine Learning.

In the episode, Richie, Birago and Karthik explore why no-code AI apps are becoming more prominent, uses-cases of no-code AI apps, the steps involved in creating an LLM, the benefits of small tailored models, how no-code can impact workflows, cost in AI projects, AI interfaces and the rise of the chat interface, privacy and customization, excitement about the future of AI, and much more.
