Greetings from sunny Düsseldorf. I'm here to keynote about AI at SportsInnovation 2024. I'm looking forward to an extraordinary conference with my friends at the DFL, D.SPORTS, and Spielmacher.
While I was on the plane, I re-watched a video I downloaded a few months ago: "Demystifying how GPT works: From Architecture to...Excel!?!" It's a "how-to" video that uses a very clever Excel spreadsheet to walk through how large language models (LLMs) work. If you've been wondering exactly how an LLM takes your prompt and predicts what's next, this will be 10 minutes well spent.
This may be just a bit too geeky; if it is, let me know. I'm putting the finishing touches on my AI for Brand Marketers Playbook, and I would truly appreciate your feedback about just how deep to go.
As always, your thoughts and comments are both welcome and encouraged. Just reply to this email. -s
