ODSC Keynote – Unlocking the Power of Large Language Models: Why Owning Your Own Model is Critical—and Within Reach

In-Person | Keynote | Machine Learning | All Levels

 

 

Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT have taken the world by storm with their ability to answer questions, write essays and even compose lyrics. These tools have profound implications for industries like financial services, retail, and healthcare. However, most organizations have yet to take advantage of LLMs. Why? The amount of compute, data, and knowledge required to build a proprietary model is daunting for many, yet the alternative is reliance on LLMs that are only accessible behind API paywalls and compromising your data privacy. In this keynote, we will explore why training, deploying, and owning your own LLM is critical (and at times even imperative). We will discuss how you can train and deploy your own models, while protecting your data and your business IP. Spoiler alert: in contrast to common wisdom, ownership of your own LLM is within reach for most organizations, and provides major benefits in increased security, flexibility, and accuracy…more details

ODSC Keynote – Transforming Drug Discovery using Digital Biology

Virtual | Keynote | Machine Learning | All Tracks | All Levels

 

Modern medicine has given us effective tools to treat some of the most significant and burdensome diseases. At the same time, it is becoming consistently more challenging and more expensive to develop new therapeutics. A key factor in this trend is that we simply don’t understand the underlying biology of disease, and which interventions might meaningfully modulate clinical outcomes and in which patients. To achieve this goal, we are bringing together large amounts of high content data, taken both from humans and from human-derived cellular systems generated in our own lab…more details

Introducing Elemeta: OSS meta-feature extractor for NLP and vision

Demo Talk | Virtual

With DALLE and ChatGPT, we have reached incredible capabilities and results, fundamentally changing our ability to tap into and leverage unstructured data in machine learning. With that said, general architectural understanding and intuition into how these models make decisions do not translate into minute detail interpretability.

We’re at a crossroads. This new “”””breed”””” of ML applications is here to stay, and unstructured data is only growing, but they are black boxes, and black boxes fail silently. So how can we as practitioners leverage NLP and vision while enjoying similar monitoring, interpretability, and explainability available to their tabular counterparts?

In this talk, we will introduce Elemeta, our OSS meta-feature extractor library in Python, which applies a structured approach to unstructured data by extracting information from text and images to create enriched tabular representations. With Elemeta, practitioners can utilize structured ML monitoring techniques in addition to the typical latent embedding visualizations and engineer alternative features to be utilized in simpler models such as decision trees.

In this talk, we’ll introduce you to Elemeta through a live notebook example and explain how it can be applied to text and images.

Generative Search Demonstration: How to Use Vector Databases to Improve Large Language Models

Demo Talk | In-person

When OpenAI launched ChatGPT at the end of 2022, more than one million people had tried the model in just a week and this trend has only accelerated with ChatGPT recently reaching 100 Million monthly users. It’s clear that NLP and Generative Large Language Models are becoming mainstream. In this talk, you will learn how to enable ChatGPT on your own data with vector search.

Generative LLMs like ChatGPT are trained on huge datasets of open data from the internet. This enables them to have vast amounts of general knowledge about the world and natural language. However, there is one disadvantage: once trained, you can only use Generative Pretrained Transformers (GPT) only on the data that it was trained on. When you ask what today’s news is, ChatGPT can’t answer that question.

In order to benefit from the capabilities of LLMs like ChatGPT in real-life use cases, it would be ideal if we could apply the generative power to new or custom data, such as a chatbot for your e-commerce platform which has knowledge about the products you sell, your detailed return policies or specific promotions currently going on. This becomes possible if we combine ChatGPT with a vector search engine! Integrating a generative LLM with a vector search engine allows you to filter through your entire personal database and search for information relevant to a prompt, which can then be provided to ChatGPT along with the prompt. This framework allows you to harness the LLM model’s power to solve tasks grounded in the context of your own data!

In this demo, we will show you how ChatGPT can be implemented with the open-source vector search engine Weaviate in live demos.

You will leave this talk with a solid understanding of how you can enable ChatGPT on your own data using vector search. Whether you’re a data scientist, developer, or NLP enthusiast, this talk will provide valuable insights and practical skills for enhancing your NLP projects with vector search and OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
