The Future of Large Language Models in AI | Mathew Lodge | Eye on AI #130

Welcome to episode #130 of Eye on AI with Mathew Lodge. In this episode, we explore the world of reinforcement learning and code generation. Mathew Lodge, the CEO of Diffblue, shares insights into how reinforcement learning fuels generative AI. As we explore the intricacies of reinforcement learning, we uncover its potential in game playing and guiding us towards solutions. We shed light on the products that it powers, such as AlphaGo and AlphaDev. However, we also address the challenges of large language models and explain why they may not be the ultimate solution for code generation. In the last part of our conversation, we delve into the future of language models and intelligence. Mathew shares valuable insights on merging no-code and low-code solutions. We confront the skepticism of software developers towards AI for code products and the task of articulating program outcomes. Wrapping up, we reflect on the evolution of programming languages and the impact of abstraction on machine learning. 00:00 Preview & sponsorship 01:51 Reinforcement Learning and Code Generation 04:39 Reinforcement Learning and Improving Algorithms 15:32 The Challenges of Large Language Models 23:58 Future of Language Models and Intelligence 35:50 Challenges and Potential of AI-generated Code 48:32 Programming Language Evolution and Higher-Level Languages Craig Smith Twitter: https://twitter.com/craigss Eye on A.I.
