Re-imagining how we train LLMs using physics-based AI


Listen Later

Machine-learning based Generative AI is inherently inefficient. Training models by sifting findings again and again until a suitable output is generated is a time-consuming – end energy-consuming – process. So, could there be a better way to look at training our AI systems?

Well, one possible option is physics-based AI, where training is viewed as an energy grid, and the best possible route though that grid mapped to find outputs. It’s a novel way of thinking, but it could change our whole approach to AI.
Joining us again today to find out more is Ray Beausoleil, a physicist, senior fellow and senior vice president at HPE. He leads the large scale integrated photonics lab at Hewlett Packard Labs.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.
