1 / 4: Extremely humbled and honored to have been awarded the world's renowned #AlexaChampion award (only 63 people globally).
Sincere thanks to @soganmageshwar for this award. He has been a guiding factor for my contribution towards #AlexaCommunity since 2 yrs

Almost every company we talk to is worried about security right now.
AI has taken the gap between finding a vulnerability and someone using it from weeks down to minutes, leaving teams scrambling to keep up.
That’s why we built AWS Continuum, now generally available.
It works autonomously with guardrails you set to discover vulnerabilities, confirm which ones are genuinely exploitable, prioritize what matters most, and build the patches to close them. Teams spend their energy on real risk instead of chasing noise.
Customers like IBM, Robinhood, Capital One, Infor, and Luminate have been running it in preview and see a meaningful difference in their security efforts.
Continuum gives security teams what they need to keep up with the risks of today, and get ahead of them. Should be a huge help. aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws…

New 3h31m video on YouTube:
"Deep Dive into LLMs like ChatGPT"
This is a general audience deep dive into the Large Language Model (LLM) AI technology that powers ChatGPT and related products. It is covers the full training stack of how the models are developed, along with mental models of how to think about their "psychology", and how to get the best use them in practical applications.
We cover all the major stages:
1. pretraining: data, tokenization, Transformer neural network I/O and internals, inference, GPT-2 training example, Llama 3.1 base inference examples
2. supervised finetuning: conversations data, "LLM Psychology": hallucinations, tool use, knowledge/working memory, knowledge of self, models need tokens to think, spelling, jagged intelligence
3. reinforcement learning: practice makes perfect, DeepSeek-R1, AlphaGo, RLHF.
I designed this video for the "general audience" track of my videos, which I believe are accessible to most people, even without technical background. It should give you an intuitive understanding of the full training pipeline of LLMs like ChatGPT, with many examples along the way, and maybe some ways of thinking around current capabilities, where we are, and what's coming.
(Also, I have one "Intro to LLMs" video already from ~year ago, but that is just a re-recording of a random talk, so I wanted to loop around and do a lot more comprehensive version of this topic. They can still be combined, as the talk goes a lot deeper into other topics, e.g. LLM OS and LLM Security)
Hope it's fun & useful!

Episode 1 of our @sequoia AI podcast, Training Data, airs today! 🎬 Featuring @hwchase17 of @langchain w/ my co-host @gradypb in a must-listen episode on agents 🤖
Listen & subscribe (new episodes weekly):

Harrison has been a visionary on turning LLMs into agents since 2022, before the LLM wave even began. Harrison's episode is a must-listen on the past, present, and future of agents -- and the first of many guests we'll interview on the topic as we explore the wacky and thrilling world of agents being built around us.
Tune in to hear Harrison's takes on:
* What exactly is an agent?
* Why did the first wave of autonomous agents fail? What's different this time?
* What is the spectrum of agents and where is the "Goldilocks middle"?
* What's a cognitive architecture?
* How much agentic reasoning gets subsumed by the models vs the prompt/orchestration layer?
* Where are agents getting traction today?
* What are the best UX paradigms for agents?
* What happens when we have an entire economy of AI agents?
* And my personal favorite... does your cognitive architecture make your beer taste better?

I used to find writing CUDA code rather terrifying. But then I discovered a couple of tricks that actually make it quite accessible.
In this video I introduce CUDA in a way that will be accessible to Python programmers, and I even show how to do it all in @GoogleColab!
