Understanding the non-deterministic nature of models is crucial for effective interaction and control. It’s essential to develop an intuition about when non-deterministic behaviors might occur and how to mitigate their impact. Recognizing that lower temperature settings yield consistent outputs while higher settings introduce variability helps in managing expectations. To utilize models effectively, one must experiment and interact with them directly, learning how to steer their behavior through necessary parameterization. This hands-on approach is vital in refining the interaction process to achieve desired outcomes reliably.
Chroma is an open-source AI application database.
Anton Troynikov is a Founder at Chroma. He has a background in computer vision and previously worked at Meta. In this episode Anton speaks with Sean Falconer about Chroma, and the goal of building the memory and storage subsystem for the new computing primitive that AI models represent.
Sean’s been an academic, startup founder, and Googler. He has published works covering a wide range of topics from information visualization to quantum computing. Currently, Sean is Head of Marketing and Developer Relations at Skyflow and host of the podcast Partially Redacted, a podcast about privacy and security engineering.
