Artificial Intelligence

2024-02-22 08:52:47 A simple guide for those who want to learn machine learning:

These are 3 online courses you can take in order. I also have a bonus for those who need a little bit more.

First, start with freeCodeCamp's Python course.

It's a free 9-hour course. You'll find it on their YouTube channel. Search for "Python Tutorial for Beginners (with mini-projects)."

Second, cover the basics of machine learning.

Take Google's Machine Learning Crash Course. It's free, and you'll find it online.

This course starts from scratch, and it's focused on beginners. It's an excellent choice for those who want to take things slow.

There are two alternatives that I recommend to people who want to take it even slower:

• Intro to Machine Learning
• Intermediate Machine Learning

These are tutorials from Kaggle. These are short courses, but you will learn a ton from them. 

Finally, take the Machine Learning Specialization on Coursera.

Completing this specialization will take several weeks. It's not free, but nothing that matters is.

Bonus for those who need a bigger challenge:

Explore GitHub projects, read top research papers in the field. Remember real world learning is always important.

In summary:
1. Python Tutorial for Beginners (freeCodeCamp)
2. Google's Machine Learning Crash Course
3. Coursera's Machine Learning Specialization

But what about the math?

Don't rush it. You'll have plenty of opportunities to learn mathematics. Start building and pick the math as you go.

People always ask me about the timeline: How long will this take them?

My answer is always the same: how long do you have? This will take all of it.

2024-02-10 10:15:09 Now Bard becomes Gemini

Google launches Gemini Ultra, its most powerful LLM yet

Google renames Bard to Gemini, launches paid ‘Gemini Advanced’ with Ultra 1.0

Gemini is the company’s much-anticipated response to ChatGPT and OpenAI’s GPT-4 model, which was the industry leader to this point.

Based on my early testing, Gemini Ultra matches or exceeds GPT-4’s performance. In particular, there’s one thing that Gemini Ultra does way better than ChatGPT.

Gemini’s release is Google’s biggest AI move in at least a year, and Gemini is now ChatGPT’s only true competitor.

On their official launch page, Google provides three examples of the new things Gemini Ultra can do. I decided to test the model’s performance by trying each of those thing and found that results are really good and promising.

I have canceled my OpenAI Premium subscription and now using Gemini's 2-month FREE trial—YES, a free trial is indeed available for two months.

2024-02-01 16:32:13 StackOverflow is a dinosaur that's going extinct.

I mostly use Copilot, ChatGPT, & Perplexity. I haven't found a single reason to visit StackOverflow anymore.

StackOverflow can't compete, & I don't see how they can stay relevant any longer.

I use Copilot for inline suggestions. As I type, Copilot takes care of the little things. It saves me from dozens of searches every day.

ChatGPT is the workhorse. I use it to solve more complex tasks with my code. Here are some examples:

• Explain what this code does
• Simplify it
• Rewrite it in a more efficient way
• Rewrite it in a more readable way
• Replace the use of a library with another
• Write documentation for it
• Describe potential edge cases
• Write unit tests for those edge cases

I use Perplexity to ask questions. Google is broken. If you don't believe me, try Perplexity for a day.

(Google is still king as a navigation tool, I never type a complete URL in my browser)

Modern AI-powered tools are replacing boomer tech.

StackOverflow is dead to me. Open / Comment

2024-01-11 17:56:23 I teach hard-core Machine Learning Engineering.

Artificial Intelligence changed my life forever. There has never been a better time to build a career that will set you apart for the next 20-30 years.

I teach a program where I show people how to build Machine Learning systems.

My program is not an online course. It's not a group of videos you watch and a PDF you read.

My program is a 90-hour live class with an additional 13 Assignments and 9 projects material. It's tough.

While everyone wants to know what will happen in the next ten years, we won't waste time trying to predict that. Instead, we focus on what never changes.

The program is about the fundamental principles of building machine learning systems. It's about timeless ideas that will help you understand the future, whatever that is.

My guarantee is simple: you'll learn more than you've ever done before.

• Cohort #1 starts this Saturday on 13th January

You can join here: www.Aiindia.ai/bootcamp.

Some of the most frequently asked questions:

How much do I have to pay?

The cost to join is a one-time payment of ₹30k and for students ₹10k There are no recurrent payments. Once you join, you get lifetime access to all materials and a community of engineers who went through the program.

Is every class live, or can I watch them offline?

Classes are live, but you can watch the recordings at your own pace.

What are the prerequisites to join?

Ideally, you don't need any prerequisite to join our program only required is your dedication and commitment. You don't need a machine learning experience to learn.

What are some of the topics you'll cover?

We cover a lot, but here are 10 of the most important topics we'll discuss in class:

1. Framing machine learning problems
2. How to fine tune models and transfer learning.
3. Processing, training, deploying, inference pipelines
4. Offline evaluation and testing in production
5. Performing error analysis. Where to work next
6. Distributed training. Data and model parallelism
7. Pruning, quantization, and knowledge distillation
8. Model deployment. Online and batch inference
9. LLMs basics with training.
10. Python programming from scratch.

2024-01-04 17:31:39 AI wishlist for this new year Open / Comment

2023-12-31 17:16:01 Dear Community,

As the year draws to a close, I would like to express gratitude for being a part of the Ai India community dedicated to expanding AI education.

My prediction for 2024

1. 1B models will outperform 70B models.

2. Models will be deployed on CPUs for almost free. Not API services.

3. Data quality will yield the next 10x boost in performance.

4. A combination of open source models will beat the best private models.

5. Compilers will unlock at least 80% speed up in models (both training and inference)

6. Legislation will side with content creators over model developers.

7. Local ML is going to be huge. It will be in part driven by the adoption of Apple Silicon and other innovative hardware, but also on raw CPU and mobile devices

8. In many cases except for the largest of LLMs, local inference will become a viable alternative to hosted inference.
