Training Small LLMs

In this episode, we dive deep into the emerging world of building and training small language models. We’ll discuss the benefits, risks, and challenges companies face as they work to create more targeted and efficient AI models. From managing hardware and power requirements to ensuring data privacy and governance, we’ll cover the key considerations for enterprises looking to leverage the power of small language models. Join us as we unpack this fascinating topic and consider the implications for the future of AI and infrastructure operations.

Generative DevOps

NOTE: This is Rob’s Gluecon topic on 5/24. Save $300 if you register with speaker300 at www.gluecon.com

We dive into the question of whether or not generative AI can be used to productively change DevOps automation and the control of infrastructure.

We’ve discussed the closed loop side of using AI to manage infrastructure in the past, but this episode we really dive into the idea of creating automation and using generative AI.

2030 Forecast for 2023

We do a 2022 retrospective slash 2023 prediction episode – a sort of end of the year classic for us, except our predictions and look ahead are different from most people’s.

We’re looking at some broader trends around software, build materials, impact of GPT (which will be a future episode), edge Technology, cloud adoption, security, faults and failures.

Not your garden variety look back look ahead type of show.

Rob’s Hot Take:

In the Cloud 2030 Podcast’s December 15th retrospective on 2022, Rob Hirschfeld discusses the significant momentum and necessity behind the adoption of Software Bill of Materials (SBoMs) for describing deployed software in a structured, programmatic manner. While emphasizing the immediate security and resilience benefits, Hirschfeld also highlights the broader economic advantages of SBoMs, drawing parallels with their use in manufacturing to provide controls and structure for normal activities. The conversation delves into various insights about the industry’s direction in 2023, making it a valuable episode beyond the focus on SBoMs. Those interested in these discussions are encouraged to check out the full episode on the2030.cloud and participate in the ongoing conversations.
