AI Tech Circle Hey Reader! I am back this week after taking a break for the Eid holidays. Recently, the UAE experienced the heaviest rainfall in its history, which posed significant challenges. The UAE leadership stepped forward to address the situation, and civil service departments and volunteers worked tirelessly day and night to support the residents affected by the heavy rain. This week started with the event ‘MachinesCanSee’ at the Museum of the Future, Dubai. It was quite a good…

AI Tech Circle Hey Reader! This weekend, my attention was drawn to the lecture from Yann LeCun, a Professor at NYU and Chief AI Scientist at Meta, titled ‘Objective-Driven AI: Towards AI systems that can learn, remember, reason, plan, have common sense, yet are steerable and safe’ and four design patterns for agents from Andrew Ng. The holiday period has started, and there will be no newsletter next week. An advance Eid Mubarak to whoever is celebrating. The first slide of 97 Slidedeck starts…

AI Tech Circle Hey Reader! I worked the entire week to continue our earlier discussion on building the business-specific LLMs using RAG and covering its technical aspects. However, I got the attention of regulation from the EU, which has stringent guidelines. So I thought, let me cover this, as whoever is working in the AI field he/she needs to understand these regulations. So let’s go deeper today into AI safety and regulations and how AI is being put behind bars to ensure that it is not…
