great conversation
OpenAI's new chatbot makes for great conversation
Many observers are marveling at ChatGPT's prospects as a replacement for traditional search engines, and human jobs like tutoring and economics punditry. But while this chatbot can in some cases be more helpful in tackling a coding problem than your Intro to Python 101 classmates, it probably isn't coming for your 9-to-5 any time soon. It even says so itself.
The true value of conversation intelligence
We are excited to bring Transform 2022 back in-person July 19 and virtually July 20 - 28. Join AI and data leaders for insightful talks and exciting networking opportunities. Conversation intelligence has increasingly become a critical purchase for sales teams that are looking to either build or expand the core sales tech stack to gain customer insights. Recently, the widespread availability of high-fidelity transcription and text mining to sales tech vendors ranging from CRM to sales intelligence platforms has commoditized its value as another source of sales insights. But using conversation intelligence for these three things misses the forest for the trees. In fact, with sales readiness emerging as the next frontier in the ongoing productivity and performance of sales reps, conversation intelligence is taking on a greater role and greater importance.
Voices in AI – great conversations with leaders in AI, Machine Learning, Data Science
Recently rebooted GigaOm has started a new and excellent podcast Voices in AI, where host Byron Reese, @byronreese, himself a promiment author and speaker, talks with some of the leading minds in AI, Machine Learning, and Data Science. I have only had time to listen to 2 episodes so far and both have been really excellent - I cannot recommend this podcast series highly enough. A bunch of episodes have already been released and here are the first 6 episodes which should keep you glued to your headphones! Episode 1: A Conversation with Yoshua Bengio In this episode, Byron and Yoshua talk about knowledge, unsupervised learning, how the brain learns, creativity, and machine translation.
