ChatGPT and the Large Language Model Revolution

Overview

Since its initial release in November 2022, ChatGPT (powered by OpenAI's GPT language model) has taken the world by storm. But it’s not the only application using large language models (LLM) that is reshaping the enterprise landscape. Microsoft’s Bing AI (Sydney), Google’s Bard, and Meta’s LLaMA are also competing for dominance in the space of generative AI, powering technologies from advanced search to conversational agents. When the dust settles, the disruption will be nothing less than a reinvention of how organizations operate.

With the most recent release of OpenAI's GPT-4 language model, it is being used by Morgan Stanley wealth management to organize its vast knowledge base, Be My Eyes to transform visual accessibility, Stripe to streamline user experience and combat fraud, and the Government of Iceland to preserve its language. 

Participants will also come away with a roadmap that can help them determine where, when, and how LLMs can be applied to their organizations in a responsible manner.

How will you learn

This ChatGPT and the Large Language Model Revolution executive sprint from University of Waterloo offers multiple modes of learning that will allow you to get up-to-speed quickly on how LLMs are disrupting different types of organizations. This includes:

• 90-minute live sessions comprised of short presentations and in-depth peer discussions guided by Dr. Jimmy Lin at each session.
• Curated readings that will allow you to dig deeper into specific topics of interest.
• Action learning thought-starters designed to help you quickly and easily understand where, when, and how to incorporate LLM applications in your organizations.
