Are LLMs useful for enterprises? Well, what is the use of a large language model that is trained on trillions of tokens but knows little to nothing about your business. To make LLMs actually useful for enterprises, it is important for them to retrieve company's data effectively. LlamaIndex has been at the forefront of providing such solutions and frameworks to augment LLMs. In this episode, Jerry Liu, Co-founder and CEO of LlamaIndex, joins Raja Iqbal, CEO and Chief Data Scientist at Data Science Dojo, for a deep dive into the intersection of generative AI, data. and entrepreneurship. Jerry walks us through the cutting-edge technologies reshaping the generative AI landscape such as LlamaIndex. He also explores Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and fine-tuning in detail, discussing their benefits, trade-offs, use cases, and enterprise adoption, making these complex tools and topics not just easily understandable but also fascinating. Jerry further ventures into the heart of entrepreneurship, sharing valuable lessons and insights learned along his journey, from navigating his corporate career at tech giants like Apple, Quora, Two Sigma, and Uber, to starting as a founder in the data and AI landscape. Amidst the excitement of innovation, Raja and Jerry also address the potential risks and considerations with generative AI. They raise thought-provoking questions about its impact on society, for instance, whether we're trading critical thinking for convenience. Whether you're a generative AI enthusiast, seasoned entrepreneur, or simply curious about the future, this podcast promises plenty of knowledge and insights for you.
