#17 How to build a clinically safe Large Language Model - Hippocratic AI, Llama3, Biollama

How do we reach the holy grail of a clinically safe LLM for healthcare? Dev and Doc are back to discuss news with Meta's LlaMA model and potential of healthcare LLMs finetuned on top like BioLlaMa. We discuss the key steps in building a clinically safe LLM for healthcare for healthcare and how this was pursued by Hippocratic AI's latest model - Polaris. 👨🏻‍⚕️Doc - Dr. Joshua Au Yeung - https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-joshua-auyeung/ 🤖Dev - Zeljko Kraljevic https://twitter.com/zeljkokr The podcast 🎙️ 🔊Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/devanddoc 📙Substack: https://aiforhealthcare.substack.com/ Hey!
