With all the talk & articles about GPT, a few weeks ago I decided to spend a couple days coding one from scratch. The training size can’t be the same (for $$$ reasons), but the model can follow a very similar architecture to the one used by GPT-3. As long as we narrow the training data, …

Leveraging Bing Chat as a development tool
Even though in their infancy, ChatGPT, Copilot & OPT are already impressive tools. The impact on how we work will be significant and, although expertise will still be critical, people who leverage AI will have an edge over people who don’t. I started increasingly using Bing Chat (which uses GPT-4 behind the scenes) to parse …

ML Exploration: Titanic Dataset
In summer 2019 I blogged about how I was taking a couple months to work on Machine Learning. Since then I’ve mostly focused on software for the Mac and server-side development. My ML hands-on knowledge was getting a bit, rusty… Plus, things have evolved a bit: new technologies, new approaches, new concepts… Perfect timing as …
Unleashing the server developer in you

In that episode, Marco Arment and David Smith were discussing how they used servers to manage Overcast and Feed Wrangler. I was already considering using servers but after that I …
Working on new NLP projects
After shipping NewsWave for Mac, this last few weeks I’ve been playing around with two new NLP (natural language processing) projects. Each quite different from the other: The first is targeted at the corporate world, its focus is in identifying new trends and winning themes based on RFP’s (requests for pricing) submitted by clients. This …
2019 Holiday Learning Update
As I do every summer, this last few weeks I’ve been deep diving into a new subject: AI & Machine Learning. Almost every day I pack my laptop, Aurélien Géron’s book -he has done a phenomenal job-, and walk to a coffee shop close by to study. Yes, that’s an HP laptop right there! It’s …
2019 Holiday Learning
One of the things I deeply enjoyed from my middle & high school summer holidays was how I would, overnight, switch my school routine for almost 2 months of passion projects. As I grew older and my interests changed I deep dived into different areas: I vividly remember one summer sitting for hours at a …
