Hey yall, welcome to this special edition of ThursdAI. This is the first one that I'm sending in my new capacity as the AI Evangelist Weights & Biases (on the growth team)I made the announcement last week, but this week is my first official week at W&B, and oh boy... how humbled and excited I was to receive all the inspiring and supporting feedback from the community, friends, colleagues and family ?‍♂️ I promise to continue my mission of delivering AI news, positivity and excitement, and to be that one place where we stay up to date so you don't have to. This week we also had one of our biggest live recordings yet, with 900 folks tuned in so far ? and it was my pleasure to again to chat with folks who "made the news" so we had a brief interview with Steve Ruiz and Lou from TLDraw, about their incredible GPT-4 Vision enabled "make real" functionality and finally got to catch up with my good friend Idan Gazit who's heading the Github@Next team (the birthplace of Github Copilot) about how they see the future. So definitely definitely check out the full conversation! TL;DR of all topics covered: * Open Source LLMs * Nous Capybara 34B on top of Yi-34B (with 200K context length!) (Eval, HF) * Microsoft - Phi 2 will be open sourced (barely) (Announcement, Model)* HF adds finetune chain genealogy (Announcement)* Big CO LLMs + APIs* Microsoft - Everything is CoPilot (Summary, copilot.microsoft.com)* CoPilot for work and 365 (Blogpost)* CoPilot studio - low code "tools" builder for CoPilot + GPTs access (Thread)* OpenAI Assistants API cookbook (Link)* Vision* ?

I'll also share my knowledge here, so you can learn alongside me. Here's what I learned this week:The most important things I learned this week is just how prevelant and how much of a leader Weights&Biases is. W&B main product is used by most of the foundation LLM trainers including OpenAI. In fact GPT-4 was completely trained on W&B!It's used by pretty much everyone besides Google. In addition to that it's not only about LLMs, W&B products are used to train models in many many different areas of the industry. Some incredible examples are a pesticide dispenser that's part of the John Deere tractors that only spreads pesticides onto weeds and not actual produce. And Big Pharma who's using W&B to help create better drugs that are now in trial. And it's just incredible how much machine learning that's outside of just LLMs is there. But also I'm absolutely floored by just the amount of ubiquity that W&B has in the LLM World.W&B has two main products, Models & Prompts, Prompts is a newer one, and we're going to dig into both of these more nex
