AI, MLOps, and Robotics #50
This Week in AI, MLOps, and Robotics: Mark Zuckerberg’s new AI goal, delivery firm’s AI chatbot goes rogue, Samsung shows off Galaxy AI, accelerate PyTorch models using quantization, transformer interpretability, and much more!
??? Join my next AI Book Club session!
I've been loving our conversations at the AI Book Club! We're currently reading "Designing Machine Learning Systems" by Chip Huyen. Even if you're not reading the book, feel free to stop by and listen or participate in the MLOps discussion!
