AI Trends 2024: Machine Learning & Deep Learning with Thomas Dietterich - #666

Author: Sam Charrington January 8, 2024 Duration: 1:05:18
Today we continue our AI Trends 2024 series with a conversation with Thomas Dietterich, distinguished professor emeritus at Oregon State University. As you might expect, Large Language Models figured prominently in our conversation, and we covered a vast array of papers and use cases exploring current research into topics such as monolithic vs. modular architectures, hallucinations, the application of uncertainty quantification (UQ), and using RAG as a sort of memory module for LLMs. Lastly, don’t miss Tom’s predictions on what he foresees happening this year as well as his words of encouragement for those new to the field. The complete show notes for this episode can be found at twimlai.com/go/666.

Hosted by industry analyst and commentator Sam Charrington, The TWIML AI Podcast (formerly This Week in Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence) serves as a vital conduit between cutting-edge research and its real-world implications. This isn't just a series of technical lectures; it's a series of conversations that unpack how AI and machine learning are actively reshaping industries and societal structures. Each episode connects you directly with leading researchers, engineers, and innovative thinkers who are defining the frontiers of the field. The discussions go beyond abstract theory to explore the practical challenges, ethical considerations, and business transformations driven by these technologies. Whether you're a data scientist deep in the code, a tech-savvy leader strategizing implementation, or simply fascinated by the future of intelligent systems, this podcast provides the context and depth needed to stay informed. By focusing on the people behind the algorithms and the ideas powering the platforms, Sam creates a resource that is both intellectually substantive and genuinely engaging, building a thoughtful community around one of the most significant technological shifts of our time.
