Research towards AI models that can generalise, scale, and accelerate science Next week marks the start of the 11th International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR), taking place 1-5 May in Kigali, Rwanda. This will be the first major artificial intelligence (AI) conference to be hosted in Africa and the first in-person event since the start…
In 3 words: timeliness, methodology, and digestibility A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about building systems to generate more quality insights. I presented how you could increase the output of your team by working on areas such as processes, tools, culture, etc., but I never defined what I meant by “quality” — so this…

In the past few years, and especially since the appearance of ChatGPT just over 12 months ago, generative AI models for creating realistic synthetic text, images, video, and audio have emerged and have been rapidly advancing since. What began as humble research quickly developed into systems with the capacity to generate…
In generative modeling, diffusion models (DMs) have assumed a pivotal role, facilitating recent progress in producing high-quality picture and video synthesis. Scalability and iterativeness are two of DMs’ main advantages; they enable them to do intricate tasks like picture creation from free-form text cues. Unfortunately, the many sample steps required for the iterative inference process…

A Glossary with Use Cases for First-Timers in Data Engineering An happy Data Engineer at workAre you a data engineering rookie interested in knowing more about modern data infrastructures? I bet you are, this article is for you! In this guide Data Engineering meets Formula 1. But, we’ll keep it simple. I strongly believe that…
The accounting cycle, often called the month-end close by accounting and FP&A teams, is an 8-step process that takes place on a monthly basis. Because of the well-established steps of the accounting cycle, the process serves as a critical checks and balances exercise for businesses and helps leadership solve major accounting problems today. It verifies…
Whether running a B2B or B2C business, streamlining your order-to-cash (O2C) process can mean the difference between success and stagnation. A recent McKinsey study revealed that a shocking 3-5% of EBITDA often slips through cracks in the O2C process. That's cash you could be pocketing! Moreover, manual methods simply can't keep up with the experiences…

This tutorial will discuss leveraging Python’s capability to execute multithreading and multiprogramming tasks. They offer a gateway to perform concurrent operations within a single process or across multiple processes. Parallel and concurrent execution increases the speed and efficiency of the systems. After discussing the basics of multithreading and multiprogramming, we…
Natural picture production is now on par with professional photography, thanks to a notable recent improvement in quality. This advancement is attributable to creating technologies like DALL·E3, SDXL, and Imagen. Key elements driving these developments are using the potent Large Language Model (LLM) as a text encoder, scaling up training datasets, increasing model complexity, better…
