Really enjoyed showcasing research that we've been doing the past few years at Sheffield. The main premise of the lecture was that LLMs are idiot savants with remarkable abilities, performing well under extreme or non-intuitive settings (e.g. pre-training, info loss etc.)

Hello. We receive so many questions about agents in DSPy. Did you know you that ~15 lines of DSPy can turn an agent that scores 30% to a prompt-optimized, multi-agent aggregation system that scores 60% EM on a HotPotQA sample? I released a notebook showing how to do this 🧵⤵️

@joelniklaus This is fantastic timing! I'm building a legal advisor chatbot to give refugees essential legal info in their new country. Many don't understand local laws or speak the language. This will be a huge help.

Today, we’re introducing Command R+: a state-of-the-art RAG-optimized LLM designed to tackle enterprise-grade workloads and speak the languages of global business. Our R-series model family is now available on Microsoft Azure, and coming soon to additional cloud providers.
New Research: a lot of talk today about "what happens" inside a language model, since they spend the exact same amount of compute on each token, regardless of difficulty. we touch on this question on our new theory paper, Do Language Models Plan for Future Tokens?
Me celebrating the new launch knowing I have to get back to writing my thesis in 5 minutes:
