Using AI to Fight Wildfires -- Prevention, ...

In a world overshadowed by the rapid deterioration of its climate, AI engineers are beginning to apply machine learning technology to issues of environmental justice and crisis. In California, where wildfires have ravaged over 570,000 acres of land and forced 41,000 evacuations already this summer, AI is being used to prevent and monitor forest fires throughout the state.

Securing the Conversational Frontier: Advanced Red Team Testing Techniques for Chatbots

Securing the Conversational Frontier: Advanced Red Team Testing Techniques for Chatbots

Chatbots, now omnipresent, face a crisis of accuracy and security highlighted by recent public blunders at Air Canada and Chevrolet, where bots made unintended promises. Air Canada's attempt to deflect blame onto its bot was rejected by authorities, underscoring a harsh reality: companies are indeed responsible for their bots' actions. Despite the prowess of language models like ChatGPT, their inherent nature to occasionally fabricate with confidence poses unique challenges. Drawing lessons from cybersecurity, this article explores four advanced red team testing strategies aimed at reining in bot misstatements and significantly bolstering chatbot security.

From RAG to Riches: A Practical Guide to Building Semantic Search Using Embeddings and the OpenSearch Vector Database

From RAG to Riches: A Practical Guide to Building Semantic Search Using Embeddings and the OpenSearch Vector Database

In this article, we delve into the evolution of search technologies, tracing the journey from the conventional keyword-based search methods to the cutting-edge advancements in semantic search. We discuss how semantic search leverages sentence embeddings to comprehend and align with the context and intentions behind user queries, thereby elevating the accuracy and relevance of search outcomes. Through the integration of vector databases such as OpenSearch, we illustrate the development of sophisticated semantic search systems designed to navigate the complexities of modern data sets. This approach not only delivers a more refined search experience but also enhances the precision of results by accurately interpreting the intent of user inquiries, representing a notable leap forward in the progression of search technology.

Measuring Accuracy and Trustworthiness in Large Language Models for Summarization & Other Text Generation Tasks

Measuring Accuracy and Trustworthiness in Large Language Models for Summarization & Other Text Generation Tasks

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly popular due to their ability to complete a wide range of tasks. However, assessing their output quality remains a challenge, especially for complex tasks where there is no standard metric. Fine-tuning LLMs on large datasets for specific tasks may be a potential solution to improve their efficacy and accuracy. In this article, we explore the potential ways to assess LLM output quality:
