About this course:

Artificial Intelligence has long been a specialized topic, periodically in the news, often poorly understood, and yet in many everyday technologies. However, recent advancements in generative models, including ChatGPT, have challenged the longstanding, quiet partnership between AI and society, and have generated significant public debate. While ChatGPT is a novel improvement, the core algorithm significantly predates OpenAI’s public release. This webinar is on the rise of ChatGPT. Starting from the basics that help machines “understand” language it will next discuss the innerworkings of modern text generators like GPT-2, 3, and 4, while acknowledging impact and limitations, hopefully guiding a more productive dialog between AI scientists and society, now and into the future.
