Welcome to a special bonus episode of the Art of A.I. for Business, hosted by our guest and digital colleague, Robo. Today, we dive into the engaging and fascinating world of 'prompt engineering' and the role of 'tokens' in Artificial Intelligence. Tokens are the building blocks that AI models use to understand and generate language. As we chat with an AI, it takes our input, breaks it into tokens and uses them to form responses. However, an AI model's memory has a token limit, and once this limit is reached, the oldest tokens are forgotten. Robo illustrates this through an interactive game and also provides practical tactics for making the most of tokens when engaging with AI models. We discuss strategies for remembering crucial information, managing the context window, and working with APIs. Join us as we explore the art of prompt engineering, a fascinating dance between human skills and AI capabilities. Remember, AI tools don't relieve us of our thinking, they complement it. Until our next episode, goodbye from the Art of A.I. for Business!

Welcome to the inaugural episode of the rebranded "Art of Automation" podcast, now titled "The Art of AI." Join your host, Jerry Cuomo, IBM Fellow and VP for Technology, and guest Dr. Ruchir Puri, IBM Fellow and Chief Scientist at IBM Research, as they explore the fundamental theme of this series: "Trustworthy AI for Business." Listen in as they discuss the importance of data governance, responsible AI practices, and transparent model training to ensure that AI systems earn trust and deliver reliability in the business landscape.
In this episode, Ruchir's analogy of a blender illustrates "Un-Trustworthy AI." Just as a blender turns ingredients into an unrecognizable smoothie, AI can consume data without retaining its origin. To ensure trust, proper data governance and attribution are vital. AI models should provide clear sources for their recommendations, fostering credibility and informed decision-making. Trustworthy AI combines responsible practices and transparency, empowering users to harness its potential with confidence.
Ruchir introduces IBM's pioneering watsonx platform as a data and AI platform that’s built for business. He explains that enterprises turning to AI today need access to a full technology stack that enables them to train, tune and deploy AI models, including foundation models and machine learning capabilities, across their organization with trusted data, speed, and governance - all in one place and to run across any cloud environment.
The conversation explores the challenge of reducing AI model "hallucinations," where systems generate incorrect information with unwarranted confidence. The hosts discuss ongoing research efforts to address this issue and elevate the overall accuracy of AI outputs.
This episode sets the stage for a thought-provoking series that explores AI's transformative potential for businesses while highlighting the significance of ethics and trust in shaping the AI-driven future.
