Persana AI

?? Speaking in front of 300+ industry leaders during SF Tech Week was not on my bingo card this year. I am so grateful for this opportunity to share about Persana AI at the AI Powered Growth Event hosted by HubSpot, Plug and Play Tech Center, and our awesome YC batchmates Hyperbound. Some key takeaways: ?? We're finally seeing real life case studies and ROI from AI powered growth! ?? Hype is finally dying down (slightly) and enterprises are evaluating not just on features but keeping in mind security, workflow integrations, and adoption. ?? Copilots and Agents are the future! Great insights from awesome speakers like with Jeff Perry, CRO at Carta, Bowen Pan, VP of Product Common Room, Michael (Mac) Conn, VP of Commercial Sales @ 6sense, Fei Ma, Founder & CEO of Beta University, Ashfaq Siddiqi, Global VP of Enterprise Data & AI @ HubSpot, Jeff Chien, SVP of Corporate Partnerships @ Plug and Play, and Mona L., Head of GTM Partnerships (West Coast) @ HubSpot For Startups. #gtm #ai #sftechweek #growth #startup #ycombinator #hubspot #b2b #gpt

?? Exciting News: My First Book is Here!! ?? I'm thrilled to announce the release of my book "LLM Reliability: Optimizing performance, reducing hallucinations, and mitigating bias" as a Manning Publications Co. Early Access Program (MEAP) title! ?? It's out for early access now. I've been an avid reader of Manning books since college, so it's been amazing to work with the incredible Manning team on this book. I started working in the LLM space back in 2018, long before ChatGPT was a thing. When Manning reached out, I decided to write this book because I wished a resource existed especially right now! The field is evolving rapidly, and there's a constant need for up-to-date, practical guidance on deploying LLMs in production environments. As the CTO and Co-founder of Persana AI, I've witnessed firsthand the challenges of building an AI company. Through conversations with industry leaders at Fortune 500 companies and cutting-edge AI startups, I've gained comprehensive insights into the hurdles of transitioning LLM prototypes into production-ready systems. This book bridges the critical gap between proof-of-concept and enterprise-grade LLM applications, covering: - Productionizing LLMs: Overcoming challenges of scaling from prototype to production - Advanced techniques like Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and intelligent agents using LangChain - Strategies for building reliable agents and reducing hallucinations - Cutting-edge approaches: Chain of Thought, Tree of Thought, and LLM as a Judge, and many more - Techniques for mitigating bias, fine-tuning strategies and monitoring techniques for ensuring high-quality outputs in production - Real-world case studies from LLM companies, e-commerce, healthcare, and legal tech and more ?? Whether you're at a startup or a Fortune 500 company, this book equips you with the skills to navigate the complexities of LLMs in production, informed by insights from both industry leaders and innovative newcomers. A huge thank you to the experts and companies in this space for our insightful conversations. Your innovations and challenges have deeply informed this book's content. Special thanks to - The Manning team - Brian Sawyer, Stjepan Jurekovic, Robin Campbell, Michael Wang, CFA and many more for championing this - LLM experts and companies in this space for insightful conversations - Medha Basu from Defog.ai (YC W23) , Sourabh Agrawal Shikha Mohanty from UpTrain (YC W23), Shiv Sakhuja from Athina AI (YC W23), - Reviewers - Andrew Freed from IBM Watson, Giovanni Alzetta, Ph.D., Astha Puri, AI leader at CVS. - Early readers and reviewers Sumit P.

Y Combinator had it's annual alumni reunion last week in San Francisco! Being surrounded by some of the smartest founders, catching up with our group partners, and endless conversations about the future of AI, PLG vs SLG, growth hacks, and of course #foundermode was invigorating. ?? Key takeaways from this last week: 1. SF is back. No place like it for having so much innovation, technologists, and AI talent . (There's even SF tech week going on from today!). 2. The markets are hungry for AI disruption and companies are seeing hypergrowth. 3. AI will only compound and get better. The best day to start working in AI was yesterday. We're already starting to see the outsized impacts and results (whether it's in the models getting exponentially better or AI applications significantly transforming workflows for the better). 4. Community and ease of use has been a key driver of growth. 5. And last but not least - #foundermode - if you know you know ????. It was great catching up with batchmates, meeting new founders, catching up with group partners, and forming relationships to last a lifetime! Until next year ??
