Frugality meets Accuracy: Cost-efficient training of GPT NeoX and Pythia models with AWS Trainium

Large language models (or LLMs) have become a topic of daily conversations. Their quick adoption is evident by the amount of time required to reach a 100 million users, which has gone from “4.5yrs by facebook” to an all-time low of mere “2 months by ChatGPT.” A generative pre-trained transformer (GPT) uses causal autoregressive updates […]

Vodafone advances its machine learning skills with AWS DeepRacer and Accenture

Vodafone is transitioning from a telecommunications company (telco) to a technology company (TechCo) by 2025, with objectives of innovating faster, reducing costs, improving security, and simplifying operations. Thousands of engineers are being onboarded to contribute to this transition. By 2025, Vodafone plans to have 50% of its global workforce actively involved in software development, with […]

Boosting developer productivity: How Deloitte uses Amazon SageMaker Canvas for no-code/low-code machine learning

The ability to quickly build and deploy machine learning (ML) models is becoming increasingly important in today’s data-driven world. However, building ML models requires significant time, effort, and specialized expertise. From data collection and cleaning to feature engineering, model building, tuning, and deployment, ML projects often take months for developers to complete. And experienced data […]

Amazon SageMaker Canvas is a no-code workspace that enables analysts and citizen data scientists to generate accurate machine learning (ML) predictions for their business needs. Starting today, SageMaker Canvas supports advanced model build configurations such as selecting a training method (ensemble or hyperparameter optimization) and algorithms, customizing the training and validation data split ratio, and […]

Easily build semantic image search using Amazon Titan

Digital publishers are continuously looking for ways to streamline and automate their media workflows to generate and publish new content as rapidly as they can, but without foregoing quality. Adding images to capture the essence of text can improve the reading experience. Machine learning techniques can help you discover such images. “A striking image is […]

Evaluate large language models for quality and responsibility

The risks associated with generative AI have been well-publicized. Toxicity, bias, escaped PII, and hallucinations negatively impact an organization’s reputation and damage customer trust. Research shows that not only do risks for bias and toxicity transfer from pre-trained foundation models (FM) to task-specific generative AI services, but that tuning an FM for specific tasks, on […]

Accelerate data preparation for ML in Amazon SageMaker Canvas

Data preparation is a crucial step in any machine learning (ML) workflow, yet it often involves tedious and time-consuming tasks. Amazon SageMaker Canvas now supports comprehensive data preparation capabilities powered by Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler. With this integration, SageMaker Canvas provides customers with an end-to-end no-code workspace to prepare data, build and use ML and […]

Automating product description generation with Amazon Bedrock

In today’s ever-evolving world of ecommerce, the influence of a compelling product description cannot be overstated. It can be the decisive factor that turns a potential visitor into a paying customer or sends them clicking off to a competitor’s site.
