Determining the value of housing is a classic example of using machine learning (ML). In this post, we discuss the use of an open-source model specifically designed for the task of visual question answering (VQA). With VQA, you can ask a question of a photo using natural language and receive an answer to your question—also in plain language. Our goal in this post is to inspire and demonstrate what is possible using this technology.

AutoML allows you to derive rapid, general insights from your data right at the beginning of a machine learning (ML) project lifecycle. Understanding up front which preprocessing techniques and algorithm types provide best results reduces the time to develop, train, and deploy the right model. It plays a crucial role in every model’s development process […]

Llama 2 stands at the forefront of AI innovation, embodying an advanced auto-regressive language model developed on a sophisticated transformer foundation. It’s tailored to address a multitude of applications in both the commercial and research domains with English as the primary linguistic concentration. Its model parameters scale from an impressive 7 billion to a remarkable […]

Prompt engineering has become an essential skill for anyone working with large language models (LLMs) to generate high-quality and relevant texts. Although text prompt engineering has been widely discussed, visual prompt engineering is an emerging field that requires attention. Visual prompts can include bounding boxes or masks that guide vision models in generating relevant and […]

Online communities are driving user engagement across industries like gaming, social media, ecommerce, dating, and e-learning. Members of these online communities trust platform owners to provide a safe and inclusive environment where they can freely consume content and contribute. Content moderators are often employed to review user-generated content and check that it’s safe and compliant […]

Today, we are excited to announce the capability to fine-tune the Mistral 7B model using Amazon SageMaker JumpStart. You can now fine-tune and deploy Mistral text generation models on SageMaker JumpStart using the Amazon SageMaker Studio UI with a few clicks or using the SageMaker Python SDK. Foundation models perform very well with generative tasks, […]

Fake news, defined as news that conveys or incorporates false, fabricated, or deliberately misleading information, has been around as early as the emergence of the printing press. The rapid spread of fake news and disinformation online is not only deceiving to the public, but can also have a profound impact on society, politics, economy, and […]

In the era of big data and AI, companies are continually seeking ways to use these technologies to gain a competitive edge. One of the hottest areas in AI right now is generative AI, and for good reason. Generative AI offers powerful solutions that push the boundaries of what’s possible in terms of creativity and […]

February 9, 2024: Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose has been renamed to Amazon Data Firehose. Read the AWS What’s New post to learn more. At a basic level, Machine Learning (ML) technology learns from data to make predictions. Businesses use their data with an ML-powered personalization service to elevate their customer experience. This approach allows businesses […]
