- Hello and welcome to the Machine Learning Podcast, the podcast about machine learning and how to bring it from idea to delivery.
- Your host is Tobias Macey and today I'm interviewing Piero Molino about the application of declarative ML in a world being dominated by large language models
- Introduction
- How did you get involved in machine learning?
- Can you start by summarizing your perspective on the effect that LLMs are having on the AI/ML industry?
- In a world where LLMs are being applied to a growing variety of use cases, what are the capabilities that they still lack?
- How does declarative ML help to address those shortcomings?
- The majority of current hype is about commercial models (e.g. GPT-4). Can you summarize the current state of the ecosystem for open source LLMs?
- For teams who are investing in ML/AI capabilities, what are the sources of platform risk for LLMs?
- What are the comparative benefits of using a declarative ML approach?
- What are the most interesting, innovative, or unexpected ways that you have seen LLMs used?
- What are the most interesting, unexpected, or challenging lessons that you have learned while working on declarative ML in the age of LLMs?
- When is an LLM the wrong choice?
- What do you have planned for the future of declarative ML and Predibase?
