Preprint Research

There is a paper that has been causing lots of chatter recently. It is a paper released by authors from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and it suggests that using generative AI (in this case ChatGPT) has important effects humans write essays. Folks who I associate with are educators and technology experts, so they have Read More

Knowledge & Information

I just discovered this from a piece I wrote about 10 years ago. It seems timely given today’s fascination with generative AI. As has been established, the instructionism of the 20th century was designed to transfer information into student’s brains. Educative experiences necessitate a more sophisticated purpose for teaching. Data and information, which are the Read More

Prompt Engineering

Prompts can be composed of text, images, or both, depending on the model. Fundamentally, prompts get converted into tokens, and the quality of this initial input strongly influences the relevance and accuracy of the model’s response. While there’s no single formula, effective prompts often contain elements like keywords, guidelines, formatting instructions, and examples. Several techniques Read More

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Generative AI (GenAI) has burst onto the scene, capturing global enthusiasm and driving the next wave of digital transformation. At the heart of many GenAI applications are Large Language Models (LLMs), powerful AI models trained on vast amounts of text data to understand and generate human-like text. LLMs, like OpenAI’s GPT series, Read More
