Demystifying Generative AI

Let an ultra-intelligent machine be defined as a machine that can far surpass all the intellectual activities of any man however clever." With these words, British mathematician, Jack Good catalyzed a six-decades long effort to build the intelligent systems that would leverage Al, ML and deep learning to augment the human experience. Fast forward to 2022, and advancements in neural nets, foundation, transformer, and diffusion models are beginning to upend knowledge and creative work as we currently know it, creating the $100B+ category known as Generative Al. The recent accessibility of bigger models, better data and faster compute has enabled Generative Al to capture public attention in the last year, but the underlying model layer and infrastructure stack has been under consistent iteration for years. Join world-renowned technologists and industry veterans as they discuss the evolution of the Generative Al tech stack and how their companies are powering the Industrial Age of Al.
