In light of this information below, I'm wondering where ya'll go for your blogging needs. I typically share my "friend" link which is supposed to bypass the paywall restrictions, but I'd be interested in cross-posting as well and would love your input. Where do you blog/read most and why is it the best? Dev.to? Substack? Hashnode? WordPress?

A.I. Rant Alert !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is the term A.I. being used WRONGLY by far to many companies to grab headlines & attention for their products? It’s 50 years since I started writing software. The writing of any programme is to automate something and make a job easier . Simple . So I need to put out there that far to many people with software , albeit very clever software , are just calling it A.I. It’s just very good and clever software !!!! True A.I. Surely has to have the ability to modify itself and learn , therefore the process itself , over time , will be far superior to what was originally rolled out by the developers without any additional R&D. Microsoft Word is clever software . But it always does what is was written to do , for example. If you write software to amamalgate images so they logically fit together , even if those images are randomly selected from large libraries, or indeed the Internet, surely this is still clever software ! Dam good software !! But we need to challenge and test a companies that claim their products are A.I. when really they have just developed cleaver software !!! Or indeed done an API call to a library or web service from a developer who also using the term wrongly !! It’s the marketing team who’s Intelegence is clearly Artificial, as they do not know the meaning of the term A.I. !! Or do you disagree ? Can all clever software be called A.I.? What do you think makes a programme, regardless how it’s run or hosted or used, actually be worthy of the name A.I.? I’m not saying nothing out there is true A.I. Nor am I going to drawn into naming names . I’m just saying , let’s keep it real ! Developers have been writing very clever software for decades .

📢 We have been busy shipping 🚢 updates to Langtrace, an Open Source LLM observability tool and I am excited to show our new and improved Evaluations Dashboard. We learned from our early users that improving the RAG/model accuracy and gaining confidence with deploying their LLM based apps to production has been the number 1 priority. 🚢 Ship with confidence - "What gets measured, gets managed" To solve for this, we have built a couple of things: 1. Create tests with different scoring scales and automatically capture LLM requests to these tests using Langtrace's SDK. 2. Evaluate the the requests by scoring against the response provided by the LLM to measure the overall average of each test. Teams can come up with a release criteria and effectively evaluate, measure and understand how their products are performing over time. For example: Teams can setup a release criteria like - "Factual Accuracy > 99%, Response Quality > 95%, Response Bias > 85%, Context Recall > 90%" and measure their product's performance against this release metric with Langtrace. Hotkeys (🔥 ↕ ↩ ◀) Additionally, we also realized that the user experience is extremely important for effective and fast evaluations. As a result, the evaluations flow(shown below in the video) is fully optimized for hot keys and as an evaluator, you can breeze through a series of evaluations with just the arrow keys, enter and backspace without having to click through a bunch of times for each request. Finally, all of this can be setup with just 2 lines of code and Langtrace's Evaluation's dashboard will start capturing the requests in the appropriate test automatically 🍃 🤖 If you are using LLM's in production, why ship in dark?. Don't forget to check out Langtrace and star the repository on Github. Links in the first comment of this post. 👇 👇

For those #softwareengineers trying to do #api #discovery, check out this #ietf spec. Planning on implementing this myself in all my #api plugins I maintain: https://lnkd.in/gxaCc5Z8

Another confirmation we need a name to describe Open Source software with some teeth in it so It can't be casually used in improper way #opensource https://lnkd.in/gAvpv9Yg
