How I built a flirtatious travel planning AI named Holiday using the GPT Builder just launched by Open AI. I share 7 takeaways from my "no code" experience of building a GPT. Voicing the part of Holiday: my friend, Leslie Marrick, a writer and actress. This may be the first and last time AI has been replaced by a human. Sorry AI... the tide will turn for you soon.We laugh. We cry.

1Conversation with Jeff DeVerter, Chief Technology Evangelist at Rackspace, a cloud computing company. We explore how they deployed a LLM (Google PaLM) for a sales application, and how they're enabling their Azure and AWS customers too.What I learned I learned from JeffYou should probably go with the LLM of your current cloud provider be it, Google, Microsoft, or Amazon. All the major vendors have versions of LLMs that can be deployed in a private cloud to ensure data confidentiality. To fully realize the potential of AI, think “data pipeline”. So from the get-go, whatever data is created is easily ingested by AI.And much more!We laugh. We cry.

We create a pitch for an epic Sci-Fi blockbuster, using chatGPT power prompts of Role Play, Chain of Thought, and Self Critique. We see how these successive prompts used individually and in combination create a better and better pitch. I discuss the 2023 Writers / Actors Strike, and the AI-related issues impacting actors, writers, and studios right now. Please enjoy this episode.We laugh. We cry.

“Does chatGPT possess human-like intelligence?” It turns out there's a right answer, and that answer is “NO”! Does this definite answer seem out of character for chatGPT which usually goes overboard with fair and balanced views? It did to me. That's the rabbit hole I explore in this episode. By probing around this accidentally-encountered guardrail, we discover the kinds of ethical issues chatGPT's creators are concerned about. And I wonder out loud we can't just be friends with AI, by adopting science fiction writer's Isaac Asimov's Robot Laws created 80 years ago. Please enjoy this episode.We laugh. We cry.

Does chatGPT have a sense of humor? What if after Microsoft's acquisition of Open AI, the Onion ran the headline, “Microsoft renames chatGPT to clippyChat”? Would chatGPT find this funny? TL;DR LLMs are better at analyzing humor than creating it. Please enjoy this episode. We laugh. We cry.

How do you extract prohibited information from ChatGPT? What are Grandma and DAN exploits? Why do they work? What can Large Language Model (LLM) companies do to protect themselves? Grandma exploits or hacks are ways to trick chatGPT into giving you information that is in violation of company policy. For example, tricking chatGPT to give you confidential, dangerous, or inappropriate information. "Jailbreaking” is a slang for removing the artificial limitations in iPhones to install apps not approved by Apple. Turns out, there are ways to jailbreak LLMs. The tech companies supplying LLM as a service want to provide a safe, and legally-compliant environment. How can this be done without hampering the flexibility and usefulness of creative prompting?We laugh. We cry.

What are AI hallucinations, and are they a feature or a bug? We start with the Top 10 categories of AI Hallucinations and examples, then explore how chatGPT might hallucinate an answer to the question, "What is the central theme of Blade Runner?" We end with chatGPT debating with itself whether AI hallucinations are bad or good for humanity. Which side wins?

Using the prompt, "Why isn't Superman's suit Kryptonite-proof?", we learn how Large Language Models are trained, why "self-attention" and the "transformer" architecture (which is what the T in GPT stands for) makes GPT-3 so powerful, the process of "inference", and how chatGPT generates answers to nerdy Superhero questions. After this episode, you'll be able to impress your friends by using the previously-mentioned AI jargon in complete sentences.In these solo episodes, I provide more definition, explanation, and context than my regular episodes with guests.

"How do ChatGPT, GPT-3, and Large Language Models (LLMs) relate?" That is the question we explore this episode viaNursery rhymeA satirical Friend's episode w/ Chandler, Joey, Ross, and MonicaFairy Tale We also examine the hierarchal order of: artificial intelligence, neural network, large language model, GPT-3, chatGPT. And why I got the order wrong initially. Hint: I reversed chatGPT and GPT-3.In these solo episodes, I provide more definition, explanation, and context than my regular episodes.

In these solo episodes, I provide more definition, explanation, and context than my regular episodes. The idea is to help those new to AI get more out of my conversations with guests.Format: Letters read aloud. I start each solo episode with a question. In this one, I ask, "How would you describe ChatGPT in your own words? " I answered it for myself, then asked chatGPT how I did. Mayhem ensues.We laugh. We cry.

I speak with scientist entrepreneur, Arijit Ray. Arijit is a PHD candidate at Boston University. We speak about generative AI, why it’s so hard to get DALL-E to create the exact pizza we envision, how one goes from scientist to entrepreneur, and his startup, which is training AI to predict social media responses and run marketing focus groups.

I speak with CTO and Chilean entrepreneur Mario Arancibia, about AI his company has developed and deployed which screens for diseases, such as Covid-19 based on the sound of our voice. Speaking a simple phrase into your phone, such as the days of the week, the AI can tell based on your voice profile if you have Covid. Or not. The AI can be trained to screen for other respiratory illnesses, and conditions as far ranging as obesity, and drug alcohol use. All from the sound of our voice. Soon AI will know more about your health than you do. [Note: Mario's views are his own, and not necessarily that of his company.]We laugh. We cry.

AI that can assess if a painting is fake. Husband-and-wife team, Steven and Andrea Frank, have developed a neural network that can assess the probability that a painting was painted by the supposed creator. They ran their neural network on a newly discovered Leonardo da Vinci painting called the Salvator Mundi which in 2017 sold at Christie’s for a record $450 million dollars, which at the moment, is the most expensive painting ever sold. Would you trust AI to tell you if art you were about to purchase was authentic? Listen and decide for yourself. I speak with my friend Maroof Farook who is an AI Engineer at Nvidia.

Alpha Go AI plays the game of GO against a human world champion. Unexpected moves by both man (9-dan Go champion Lee Sedol) and machine (Alpha Go). Supposedly, this televised Go match woke up China's leadership to the potential of AI. In the game of Go, players take turns placing black and white tiles on a 19×19 grid. The number of board positions in Go is greater than the number of atoms in the observable universe. We discuss the documentary Alpha Go which tells the story of Alpha Go (created by DeepMind, acquired by Google), and the human Go champions it plays against. Who will you cheer for: man or machine?

A 100% digital version of the world's driving environment is being created AKA The Metaverse. Think an immersive virtual reality environment like Grand Theft Auto with less destruction, profanity, and mayhem. The goal? Have a self-driving AI not be able to tell if it’s driving in the real-world or a simulation. Can we fool AI into thinking it's not AI? Don’t freak out. Or freak out.

I speak again with my friend Maroof Farook who is an AI Engineer at Nvidia. [Note: Maroof’s views are his and not that of his employer.] This is a continuation of our previous conversation about self-driving cars. We discuss AI challenges including humans on bicycles, bicycles on bike racks, motorcycles, and other things easy for a teenager with a driving permit to figure out but hard for a computer. "Roads with fully autonomous vehicles will be a safer roads." That's what companies like Tesla developing self-driving cars are pitching. Is there any truth to that? We find out.

I speak with my friend Maroof Farook who is an AI Engineer at Nvidia. [Note: Maroof’s views are his and not that of his employer.] We discuss what’s different about the self-driving approaches of Tesla and Alphabet/Google/Waymo. We cover the phases of autonomous driving, from level 1 to level 5, the capabilities of each phase, and at which phase we can eat a cheeseburger while our car drives itself.

I speak again with my friend, Maroof Farooq, an AI engineer at Nvidia. [Note: Maroof's views are his own, and not that of his employer.] We discuss a breakthrough in natural language processing AI called GPT3 created by the research lab, OpenAI. This episode was recorded prior to the launch of ChatGPT (chatbot built on top of GPT-3) and is a good introduction on how GPT works under the hood. We dive into supervised vs. unsupervised learning, what GPT3 stands for (spoiler alert: Generative Pre-trained Transformer), what the heck those words mean, and how GPT3 can impersonate famous people like Isaac Asimov, Isaac Newton, the Hulk (yeah, the buff, green superhero), and someday… YOU!
