SUMMARY:Language Models and AI: A Guide for the Perplexed at Columbia College Chicago - Student Center
DESCRIPTION:Over the past year\, language models have entered the popular consciousness as new apps like ChatGPT attract hundreds of millions of users. Bold claims have been made about the capabilities and future impact of such products. Researchers in the field of natural language processing (the scholarly field in which language models originated) have been somewhat taken aback by these developments; language models have been around for decades. Noah Smith\, an expert in natural language processing\, takes to the Chicago Humanities stage for a presentation that aims to demystify generative artificial intelligence with a focus on language models. By introducing historical context and a few key concepts and foundational ideas\, he aims to narrow the gap between scientific and popular understanding of language models while avoiding the hype. \nThis event will have open captions and assistive listening devices with t-coil available at the Box Office. \nTo buy tickets\, press on this link below: https://www.chicagohumanities.org/events/attend/language-ai/
