Description
This lecture is aimed at giving participants a fundamental understanding on how statistical machine learning models have gotten really good (at an uncanny level) at generating quality text over a short timespan of just a few years.
The talk will go over the fundamental building blocks, the major breakthroughs that were needed in order to reach our current level of model quality, and the new "agentic AI" paradigm that is taking root in software engineering as models start being able to interact with the outside world through a unified interface.
