@PropCazhPM @DaqingZhao how about a George Box quote corollary: "no data is clean, but most is useful". #tdwiaccelerate

[Dean Abbott @deanabb]

Finished my workshop on automl + GenAI at #MLWeek last week. I'm loving being able to introduce ideas into prompts for Claude and/or ChatGPT to do things I love doing but rarely see and get code to execute (it wrote over 6000 lines of code for me to use in demos...I created these within a few hours). One example is using ISLE (https://t.co/DpAIrRaOjc) which compresses GBM ensembles: reducing # of trees and tends to be more accurate on hold-out data. Prompt->code->run it.

Appreciate the insights on why LLMs struggle with breaking news.

I wonder how many humans are employed to fix them? This is why I recommend to those who ask me to not use LLMs open loop for mission critical tasks without human validation.

@Onanaroghene @pmddomingos If it’s truly A*G*I (emphasis on G) then we would expect broad areas with dramatic progress. If the dramatic progress is in a few areas , that’s great but not “general intelligence”

@bdubsports_ if he had run through he would have been safe. Sliding slowed him down.

@CorpsScores Bluecoats won brass finals night.

@BestlnTheGame @CorpsScores And the props are toned down this year. Complement rather than dominate the visuals.

[Dean Abbott @deanabb]

@CorpsScores whoa! Boston starts with a win!

@Chris_Broussard @FTFonFS1 Didn’t Wildes say Indy by 8?

🧠 Predictive or generative AI? Why not both.

Join Dean Abbott at #MLWeek for a session on hybrid AI for retail fraud detection.

@pmddomingos we have lost about 1 year in value. by comparison, the 2008 crash lost > 10 years of value. It isn't good, of course, but it's too early to tell if it's really a problem or just a knee-jerk reaction that will correct.

[Dean Abbott @deanabb]

@FTFonFS1 @getnickwright @kevinwildes @Chris_Broussard you got your 15 points Wildes!

Read my latest in @Forbes: When #machinelearning fails to detect misinformation, medical conditions or spam, the cost of each error is subjective. Here’s how to apply #predictiveAI nonetheless. https://t.co/Q4kldkH4Te

[Dean Abbott @deanabb]

@CorpsScores Thanks for keeping us all up-to-date this season!

[Dean Abbott @deanabb]

@CorpsScores 🤣

[Dean Abbott @deanabb]

@CorpsScores Best closer this year!

[Eric Siegel @predictanalytic]

Read my latest @Forbes article. Stakeholders involved with #predictiveAI must ramp up on a semi-technical understanding that comes down to 1) what's predicted, 2) how well, and 3) what's done about it. https://t.co/mlVJ8RKJQ7 #bizML

[Dean Abbott @deanabb]

I'll be back at Machine Learning Week, EU, this year in Munich! Changing my workshop to an AutoML/Predictive AI/Generative AI topic this time.

Hope to see many of you there!

👇 Devastating new paper. The lack of reliable world models will forever hobble LLMs (exactly as I conjectured in 2019).

[Dean Abbott @deanabb]

So glad you found it so helpful! Thanks for your comments and questions during the workshop.

Had an incredible time at @MLWeekUS ! The session on predictive and generative AI by @deanabb were truly insightful. Excited to apply what I've learned and see where this cutting-edge tech takes us next! #MLWeek #AI #MachineLearning
