The Premise Let’s say that I want to construct a dataset of text that I can then use to fine-tune an
Read more...A chain is as strong as its weakest link - and your AI/ML infrastructure is only as fast as your slowest component. If you train machine learning models with GPUs, then your weak link may be your storage solution. The result is what I call the “Starving GPU Problem.” The Starving GPU problem occurs when your network or your

Others will say, that’s not really a reach - most folks will fail in their initial AI attempts but it doesn’t matter and the learnings are worth it. On some level both are right - but I think WHY enterprises will fail is worth exploration and may allow

Learn why their expertise in data infrastructure, feature engineering, and pipeline optimization is indispensable.
Read more...Much has been said lately about the wonders of Large Language Models (LLMs). Most of these accolades are deserved. Ask ChatGPT to describe the General Theory of Relativity and you will get a very good (and accurate) answer. However, at the end of the day ChatGPT is still a computer program (as are all other LLMs) that is blindly executing

Read more...Over the past few months, I have written about a number of different technologies (Ray Data, Ray Train, and MLflow). I thought it would make sense to pull them all together and deliver an easy-to-understand recipe for distributed data preprocessing and distributed training using a production-ready MLOPs tool for tracking and model serving. This post integrates the code I presented
Read more...Most machine learning projects start off as a single-threaded proof of concept where each task is completed before the next task can begin. The single-threaded ML pipeline depicted below is an example. However, at some point, you will outgrow the pipeline shown above. This may be caused by datasets that no longer fit into the memory of a single process.
Read more...The calendar year 2023 will be a meaningful one, perhaps one of the most meaningful ones, when the history of AI is written. It was, in essence, the big bang. It started in late 2022 with OpenAI’s ChatGPT but it was the response that was so breathtaking. Within months we had Meta’s LLaMA 2, Google’s Bard chatbot
Read more...Rising interest in super-fast analytical databases like ClickHouse Cloud and MotherDuck highlights the benefits of decoupling storage and compute. This architecture, exemplified in AI applications, enhances scalability, speed, and cost efficiency, and is driving a shift towards object storage.
Read more...Microsoft SQL Server 2022 is one of the most commonly implemented enterprise relational databases. Many of the world's most successful companies, regardless of vertical, have significant SQL Server deployments. Thousands of companies have relied on SQL Server for decades. Microsoft has made great strides over the past decade in embracing open-source and standards-compliant technologies. The result is that
Read more...Amid the fervor to adopt AI is a critical and often overlooked truth - the success of any AI initiative is intrinsically tied to the quality, reliability and performance of the underlying data infrastructure. If you don't have the proper foundation, you are limited in what you can build and therefore what you can achieve. Your data infrastructure
Read more...Introduction Distributed data processing is a key component of an efficient end-to-end distributed machine-learning training pipeline. This is true if you are building a basic neural network for statistical predictions where distributed training could mean each experiment runs in 10 minutes vs. an hour. It is also true if you are training or fine-tuning a Large Language Model (LLM) where
Read more...This post was written in collaboration with Amit Kesarwani from lakeFS. The reality of running multiple machine learning experiments is that managing them can become unpredictable and complicated - especially in a team environment. What often happens is that during the research process, teams constantly change configuration and data between experiments. For example, try several training sets and several hyperparameter
Read more...Introduction Generative AI represents the latest technique an enterprise can employ to unlock the data trapped within its boundaries. The easiest way to conceptualize what is possible with Generative AI is to imagine a customized Large Language Model - similar to the one powering ChatGPT - running inside your firewall. Now, this custom LLM is not the same as the
Read more...A lot of ink has been spilled on the significance of the AI/ML technology wave (here are our posts). What doesn’t get attention, but probably should, is how AI/ML is remaking the technology power structure inside the enterprise. As companies reorganize around a data-centric orientation, they are also reorganizing who makes and executes the technology architecture. While
