Foundational Models

Ever wonder how AI seems to 'understand' language, images, even the building blocks of life? This episode dives into the world of foundational models, the AI game-changers trained on massive datasets. We'll explore Large Language Models (LLMs) like GPT and BERT, unraveling the magic of their Transformer architecture, and how they generate human-like text and more. Then, we'll journey into vision, where Vision Transformers (ViT) and CNNs are reshaping how AI perceives the world. From object detection to mind-bending image creation, the possibilities are endless. Finally, we'll venture beyond language and vision, discovering AI’s impact in science with AlphaFold predicting protein structures and its surprising role in music creation. These models aren't just impressive; they’re redefining what AI can do. Tune in to discover the power and potential of foundational AI.
