@EricTopol Does this point to an inherent limitation in human clinical judgment — not just due to cognitive bias, but also our inability to consistently filter signal from noise within outdated disease frameworks? Are we seeing AI’s edge not just in scale, but in reshaping the very models of diagnosis?

@wolfejosh Interesting how VC investing in defense tech are keen to jump to and feed the greed that creates more divisiveness, destruction and “isms”. Sad commentary of financially driven dispositions on complex issues facing our plenary society.

I want to build and invest in companies and products that aspire to execute at the speed of thought—where tech amplifies human potential, removes friction, and transforms big bold ideas into reality in real time. Future belongs to those who design in AI as a true extension of human cognition, enabling us to create, innovate, and solve problems faster than ever before. Let’s build!!! #c10labs

OpenAI just announced API access to o1 (advanced reasoning model) yesterday. I'm delighted to announce today a new short course, Reasoning with o1, built with @OpenAI, and taught by @colintjarvis, Head of AI Solutions at OpenAI, to show you how to use this effectively!

Unlike previous language models which generate output directly, o1 “thinks before it responds,” and generates many reasoning tokens before returning a more thoughtful and accurate response. It is great at complex reasoning -- including planning for agentic workflows, coding, and domain-specific reasoning in STEM fields like law. But how you should use it is quite different from other LLMs.

I think o1 will be a game changer for many AI applications; and in this course, you'll learn how to use it effectively.

In detail, you’ll:
- Learn to recognize what tasks o1 is suited for, and when to use a smaller model, or combine o1 with a smaller model
- Understand the new principles of prompting reasoning models: Be simple and direct; no explicit chain-of-thought required; use structure; show rather than tell
- Implement multi-step orchestration in which o1 plans, and hands tasks over to gpt-4o-mini to execute specific steps; this illustrates a design pattern to optimize intelligence (accuracy) and cost
- Use o1 for a coding task to build a new application, edit existing code, and test performance by running a coding competition between o1-mini and GPT 4o
- Use o1 for image understanding and learn how it performs better with a "hierarchy of reasoning," in which it incurs the latency and cost upfront, preprocessing the image and indexing it with rich details so it can be used for Q&A later
- Learn a technique called meta-prompting, in which you use o1 to improve your prompts. Using a customer support evaluation set, you'll iteratively use o1 to modify a prompt to improve performance

You'll also learn about how OpenAI used reinforcement learning to produce a model that uses "test-time compute" to improve performance.

I think you'll find this course enjoyable and valuable.

Announcing new open-source Python package: aisuite!

This makes it easy for developers to use large language models from multiple providers. When building applications I found it a hassle to integrate with multiple providers. Aisuite lets you pick a "provider:model" just by changing one string, like openai:gpt-4o, anthropic:claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022, ollama:llama3.1:8b, etc.

pip install aisuite

Open-source code with instructions: https://t.co/gwz9oKTCFx

Thanks to Rohit Prsad, Kevin Solorio, @standsleeping, Jeff Tang and @Johnsanterre for helping build this!
