Everybody’s talking about AI, but how many of those who claim to be “experts” can actually break down the math behind it? It’s easy to get lost in the buzzwords and headlines, but the truth is — without a solid understanding of the equations and theories driving these technologies, you’re only skimming the surface.

Over the past decade, companies have embraced innovation with enthusiasm—Chief Innovation Officers have been hired, and in-house incubators, accelerators, and co-creation labs have been launched. CEOs have spoken with passion about “making everyone an innovator” and the need “to disrupt our own business.” But after years of experimentation, senior leaders are asking: Is this still just an experiment, or are we in it for the long haul?

Large language models (LLMs) are powerful tools for generating text, but they are limited by the data they were initially trained on. This means they might struggle to provide specific answers related to unique business processes unless they are further adapted. Fine-tuning is a process used to adapt pre-trained models like Llama, Mistral, or Phi to specialized tasks without the enormous resource demands of training from scratch.

They happen when an AI, like ChatGPT, generates responses that sound real but are actually wrong or misleading. This issue is especially common in large language models (LLMs), the neural networks that drive these AI tools.

No matter how well we build these models, they will hallucinate. Instead of chasing the impossible dream of eliminating hallucinations, our focus should be on rethinking model development to reduce their frequency and implementing additional steps to mitigate the risks they pose.
