Just Launched, OpenAssistant AI, The Open-source ChatGPT Rival?


 On Sunday the 16th of April Open Assistant was launched, it describes itself as: "Conversational AI for everyone.We believe we can create a revolution.

In the same way that Stable Diffusion helped the world make art and images in new ways, we want to improve the world by providing amazing conversational AI."

"Open Assistant is a project organized by LAION and individuals around the world interested in bringing this technology to everyone."

LAION is "Funded by donations and public research grants, our aim is to open all cornerstone results from such an important field as large-scale machine learning to all interested communities."

One of the important things about this model is the training data will also be released in a Creative Commons license. 

OpenAssistant promises to be a very timely and useful addition to the expanding library of tools, and to me, it being Open Source still, it's more interesting than most, but needs significant training.

CRM and AI?

Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used in a CRM system to enhance customer service, sales performance, and marketing strategies. Here are some examples of how AI can be applied in a CRM: - AI can enable natural language processing and voice input, such as Siri or Alexa, to allow a CRM system to answer customer queries, solve their problems, and even identify new opportunities for the sales team. Some AI-driven CRM systems can even multitask to handle all these functions and more. - AI can help with sales forecasting by analysing historical data, customer behaviour, and market trends.

A Network Analysis Tool to help identify structural gaps

  InfraNodus is a web-based open source tool and method for generating insight from any text or discourse using text network analysis. The byline on the website states, 'Get an overview of any discourse, reveal the blind spots, enhance your perspective.' which, whilst accurate does little to summarise the potential of such a tool. Watching the introduction helps. Its capabilities include representing any text as a network and identifying the most influential words in a discourse based on the terms' co-occurrence, providing text network visualization and analysis live as new data is added, offering discourse structure analysis to measure the level of bias in discourse and identify structural gaps in discourse, and being available via an API to be used in conjunction with other text mining and analysis software. The white paper, ' Generating Insight Using Text Network Analysis ' concludes:  'The tool is currently used by researchers, marketing professionals, stude...
