AI for Fun and Profit
Ian’s talk will include a brief history of AI and then introduce the concept of Large Language Models (LLM’s) – these include systems such as ChatGPT, CoPilot, Gemini, Claude and others.
It will also present issues with LLMs including the way they can hallucinate, their poor ability with simple arithmetic and recent developments that suggest we are rapidly reaching the situation where AI systems can think and plan and also scheme and lie.
The main part of the talk will describe a recently introduced Google product, Notebook LM, and how it differs from the more well known LLMs as mentioned above.
