Idea to Value

One of the most controversial, and perhaps even misunderstood topics in innovation are the roles of risk and luck for innovation success. Do you have to get lucky to innovate successfully, or can you make your own luck? Is it always inherently risky to try to innovate, or can you manage risk by making smart decisions?

In all my years of writing about science I have to admit that I’ve never heard of today’s topic, Einsteinium, a rare heavy element that decays so quickly it’s properties are excruciatingly hard to pinpoint.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

I don’t want to get into the nitty gritty of it. I’m not going to tell someone what to believe. You do you. But I did have an interesting epiphany the other day wherein I realized that maybe there is a way to get me to become more religious after all.

Everywhere I go dirty masks strewn about the landscape, adding an environmental catastrophe on top of all the other horrors that COVID-19 has wrought. But soon this eyesore may go away thanks to a new plan to turn used masks into roads.
