🦄 ai that works
A weekly conversation about how we can all get the most juice out of todays models with @hellovai & @dexhorthy
LLMs are great at classification from 5, 10, maybe even 50 categories. But how do we deal with situations when we have over 1000? Perhaps its an ever changing list of categories?
This week, join Dex and Vaibhav as they deep dive into multiple techniques to approach this problem.
