PyData Chicago June 2024 Meetup | Navigating Large Language Models
Join experts at PyData Chicago to explore LLM best practices, limitations, and real-world applications. Learn how to effectively integrate AI while maintaining human expertise and oversight.
-
Domain knowledge remains crucial even when using AI tools - having expertise in video production, healthcare, or other fields is essential for effective AI implementation
-
LLMs work best as assistants rather than full automation solutions - they help accelerate work but shouldn’t be relied on completely
-
Context management and memory handling are critical limitations of current LLM implementations
-
Step-by-step instruction and careful prompt engineering produce better results than expecting end-to-end automation
-
When building AI applications, focus on enhancing user experience and solving real problems rather than just using cutting-edge technology
-
For complex tasks, breaking them down into smaller components and maintaining human oversight is more effective than attempting fully autonomous solutions
-
RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) implementations require high-quality retrievers for success
-
Current LLMs excel at coding assistance and information retrieval but struggle with creative and complex decision-making tasks
-
Prototyping and building applications has become faster and easier with LLMs, but human expertise is still needed for quality control
-
Companies should focus on practical innovations that solve real problems rather than just implementing the latest AI technology
