Citibeats, a provider of ethically-sourced AI insights that drive real-time, data-driven actionable decisions, is establishing an open-source community dedicated to democratizing its AI algorithm.

What if there was a way to have a conversation with a machine as you would with a human being?

Well, current innovations in Large Language Models (LLM) make such a thing possible.

LLMs are machine learning algorithms that utilize large text-based datasets to recognize, predict, and generate human languages. 

Take our recent conversation with GPT-3—or Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3—for instance, a model that leverages deep learning technology to produce human text.

Once a month, Citibeats will have such conversations with various publicly available LLMs, such as GPT-3 by OpenAI, Jurassic-1 by AI21 Labs, and GPT-NeoX by EleutherAI. Beyond simply chatting with a GPT-3, this series will explore the creative, clever use of AI and innovative technologies to profoundly impact our social future—a core value for Citibeats.

Utilizing OpenAI playground (with the following parameters: Model: text-davinci-002; Temperature: 0.9; Top P: 1; Presence penalty: 0.6), here is Citibeats Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Abby Seneor’s chat with the GPT-3, a.k.a. “Clever.”

Enjoy!

In early July, Panamanian citizens orchestrated country-wide street closures and rallies in front of public institutions to protest skyrocketing inflation costs. What on the surface was a public display of growing discontent over rising inflation was in reality the final straw for many people feeling neglected by government institutions. 

For a quarter-century, nations around the world had made significant gains in reducing poverty, a silver lining for many despite widening income inequality. But the COVID-19 pandemic reversed many of those important gains and now inflation and other factors are causing elected officials and others to redouble efforts to combat poverty and pernicious unemployment.

While inflation is a significant global problem, it is particularly harmful on the populations of developing countries. 

On June 28, 2022, Citibeats was awarded as the best solution in Europe at the first edition of Tech4Democracy, an event organized by IE University in partnership with the U.S. Department of State and Microsoft, as part of Joe Biden’s Summit for Democracy.

• The commitments reached by the companies include the following: training programs to achieve equity in the recruitment of women; training courses for human resource departments; promoting the visibility of female talent and conciliation policies; prioritizing the recruitment of women; and revising inclusive language for each of the 32 companies.
