The Data Speaker’s Blueprint: Turning Analytics into Applause: During their career as a Data Scientist, Alessandro Romano attended many conferences and meetups. When they started their job, many struggled to understand what data science was and how to leverage cloud computing solutions. That’s why connecting with the data community through meetups and other local events is essential. ‘’At some point, someone invited me to present a project I was working on. It was then I realized how much I enjoy sharing and explaining my work! Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of speaking at various conferences, including Data Innovation Summit, among others.’’ How do you find the right story for a conference? Aren’t you scared of making mistakes while presenting something technical? These questions made Alessandro realize it’s time to share what they’ve learned over the years and, hopefully, inspire new data experts to share their knowledge.

Digital Twins and Synthetic Voices Can Tell Stories 24/7 – Interview with Tove Mylläri, Yle – Finnish Broadcasting Company: In this interview, we had the chance to speak with Tove Mylläri, AI Innovation Lead at Yle, Finland’s national public broadcasting company. Tove is a long-standing technology, and innovation professional, a keynote speaker and the host of Yle’s AI Demo Event.

She elaborates on the importance of AI literacy in society, especially for children, and how it impacts their upbringing and future skills development. Furthermore, Tove will be presenting more insights on “Digital twins and synthetic voices can tell stories 24/7” at the 9th annual Data Innovation Summit in Stockholm this April.

7 Practical Applications of RAG Models and their Impact on Society: As Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) models keep on advancing, their impact spreads across the NLP community. These models are fascinating, sitting at the intersection of natural language processing (NLP) and information retrieval. RAG refines information synthesis and not only leverages context and relevance, but also promotes richer and contextually aware outputs. RAG serves as an AI framework, providing relevant data as context for generative AI (GenAI) models. But how does it achieve this? This article covers the core of the RAG approach.

Show me the money! – The ROI of marketing analytics – Interview with Gabor Harsanyi, Ericsson AB: In this interview, we had the privilege to talk with Gabor Harsanyi, Head of Connected Data and Analytics at Ericsson AB. With over two decades of expertise in strategy, business intelligence, marketing analytics, customer insights, and data science, his domain knowledge spans across ICT and financial verticals. In this interview, Gabor talks about the transition from data-driven to data-informed approach, the challenges in demonstrating marketing value, and the Importance of data quality and democratization. As a featured speaker on the Business and Data Analytics Stage, Gabor will delve into “Show me the money! – The ROI of marketing analytics” at the upcoming Data Innovation Summit 2024.

OpenAI Announces Development of AI Agents: OpenAI is transitioning its focus towards the development of AI agents: software programs designed to automate complex tasks by controlling a user’s device. These agents are intended to perform actions such as transferring data, filling out reports, and entering information into software, mimicking human interactions with various applications. OpenAI is working on two types of agents: one that handles device-based tasks and another for web-based tasks.

More Agents Is All You Need: Simply via a sampling-and-voting method, the performance of large language models (LLMs) scales with the number of agents instantiated. Also, this method is orthogonal to existing complicated methods to further enhance LLMs, while the degree of enhancement is correlated to the task difficulty. Industry experts have conducted experiments on a wide range of LLM benchmarks to verify the presence of our finding, and to study the properties that can facilitate its occurrence. Read more here.

Dify.AI Unveils AI Agent: Creating GPTs and Assistants with Various LLMs: Humans solve complex problems by understanding information, making choices, and using tools. LLMs excel at processing language, offering potential to aid in real-world problem-solving. Previously, OpenAI introduced GPTs and Assistants API, sparking creativity. Dify now expands possibilities by allowing access to various LLMs and tools to create intelligent AI Agents.

Google Launches Gemini Ultra: Google Bard is no more. Almost exactly a year after first introducing its efforts to challenge OpenAI’s ChatGPT, the company is retiring the name and rebranding Bard as Gemini. More importantly, it is also now launching Gemini Ultra, its most capable LLM yet. However, Gemini Ultra will be a paid experience. Google is making it available through a new $20 Google One tier that includes 2TB of storage and the rest of Google One’s feature set, as well as access to Gemini in Google Workspace apps. With that, Google will also sunset the Duet AI brand, which was mostly restricted to its AI features in Workspace, and move that to Gemini as well.

Google’s Exphormer for Graph-Structured Data: Exphormer, Google’s latest stride in machine learning, addresses the scalability challenges of graph transformers, essential for interpreting complex, graph-structured data in various sectors. By combining expander graphs with sparse attention frameworks, Exphormer efficiently processes large-scale graph data, overcoming traditional computational limitations. It demonstrates exceptional performance across different datasets, marking a significant advancement in the application of graph neural networks.

DeepMind’s AlphaGeometry AI System for Geometry: AlphaGeometry, an AI system from DeepMind, demonstrates capability in solving Olympiad-level geometry problems. It integrates a neural language model with a symbolic deduction engine, enabling it to perform complex mathematical reasoning. Achieving near-human performance, it successfully tackled 25 out of 30 International Mathematical Olympiad problems, signaling a significant leap in AI’s mathematical reasoning abilities and marking a step towards advanced, general AI systems.
