Welcome to another episode of Using AI. I'm your usual host, Alex Denne, and today, I'm accompanied by Alex Pap and Nitish Mutha (Founder of Legaltech Genie AI).
We start by introducing Llama and discuss its weights leaking incident. We also elaborate how Llama compares to other AI models and explain how to use it. The conversation takes a turn towards the Meta vs Open AI dispute, shedding light on their differences and impact in this space. We also discuss Meta's data management and how it can actually come up trumps on both privacy strategy here, and non-copyrighted multi-lingual training data.
We don't delve too deep into the already covered demo-gate scandal, don't worry! This episode features insights from Senior ML Research Scientist Alex Pap and AI Startup Founder and CTO Nitish Mutha.
We discuss: Google vs OpenAI for the long-term. GPT4 Vision, GPT5, Multimodal AI, Gemini Ultra, Gemini Pro, Gemini Nano, OpenAI Whisper, DALL·E 3, Chain of thought, Google, OpenAI, Bard, AI technology, Machine Learning
Welcome to Episode 17: and the 3rd episode in our AI Market Leaders mini-series - focusing on Google vs OpenAI.

It's been a year since ChatGPT was released (yeah, feels longer than that doesn't it?). We’re going to look through it’s achievements, and then run a few episodes taking a closer look at the competition hot on OpenAI's heels
So this will be the first in a short 5-part mini series where we’re talking about the alternatives to Open AI - given the Fiasco which has dominated headlines for the past 3 weeks - details of which are still emerging.
Some stats on ChatGPT from the past 12 months

We discuss: AI Coding Tools, Code-Interpreter, Python, Regex, Network errors, Machine Learning, ChatGPT4, HTML Parsing, Github Copilot vs GPT-4
In this episode, we delve into a fascinating experiment where I, Alex Denne, under the watchful guidance of ML Research Scientist Alex Pap, try to get AI to writing some regex that can be run locally on my machine using python, on millions of documents.
The goal? To extract matching text from millions of HTML files.
It all inadvertently unfolds into an intriguing journey of trial and error.
For the no-code listeners, this episode offers first-hand insights into the application and limitations of AI coding tools and code interpreters (and why, for now, you probably still need technical help like Alex D did!)
At the outset, we were greeted by a seemingly promising result - a neat CSV file with the right column names but no entries as the AI successfully claimed to extract definitions only to produce an empty result.
In an attempt to further probe, the AI was prompted to read the first 100 characters for potential matches. Alas! In lieu of any found matches, it concluded the document must be lengthy and gracefully tapped out.
In addition, we had to deal with several network errors that may be attributed to the reported DDoS attacks on OpenAI.
After multiple hits and misses, we decided to start afresh with a new approach. We didn't exactly strike gold, but we learned a lot.
Through this episode, we touch upon topics like ChatGPT4 and the wonderful feature of 'dragging and dropping' files into GPT-4 Turbo.
