Dr. Simon Lau participated in the Train-the-Trainer (TTT) Program for Advanced Technical Course on Large Language Model (LLM) co-organized by the Taiwan AI Academy and AI Nusantara from the 27 Sept to the 3 Oct, 2024 at the Academia Sinica, Nangang, Taipei.
There are altogether 30 delegates representing various academic institutions and companies from Malaysia participating in the program. The program starts with the 7th Annual AI for All Trades and Professions Conference organized by the Taiwan AI Academy. This conference is attended by academics, researchers, business and industry professionals alike. During the conference, AI experts from multinationals and Taiwan institutions gathered to share and exchange latest insight into the development and application of AI in businesses and industries.
The two-day conference is followed by a four-day training program. The training focuses on artificial intelligence with a particular emphasis on Large Language Models (LLM) and Lang Chain methodologies. The training begins with introducing participants to foundational concepts, including an overview of LLM, Lang Chain, and its applications in large language models, complemented by sessions on data processing and connectivity. Day 2 delves deeper into Lang Chain and explores fine-tuning methods for open-source large language models, along with research sessions and case studies to reinforce learning. The third day continues with advanced fine-tuning techniques and emphasizes project discussions, culminating in an introduction to the TAIDE (GenAI) platform and its applications. The final day allows participants to engage in project discussions and present their findings, ensuring a collaborative wrap-up of the training experience. Overall, the program aims to equip attendees with practical skills and insights into the evolving landscape of LLM technologies.
