Thats the exact explanation I gave to a group of investors last week. (… it’s just Precision/Recall, attributes vectorization as “embedding”, K-Nearest Neighbor, User Search Intent, DAG, ML algorithms, etc all over again …). LOL and they asked what’s new this time around. And I was like not much, ML is still the backbone, and AI is the inference and actions based on the model. It works better when there is a feedback loop in a closed system. But the current state of the art like ChatGPT is based on scraping the Internet (garbage in, garbage out). Kinda like early search engines. What is a better analogy is that NVIDIA/Snowflake etc are selling tools, aka pickaxes to prospectors. The gold is up to you to find. And the opportunity right now is to monetize industry specific (healthcare, travel, financial services) clean data to build models with (aka a treasure map for the prospectors). From an enterprise perspective, what’s out there today aka generative AI isn’t very useful. Too much hype. To build useful engines will require an effort similar to search revolution 2 decades ago.

Ok, so I get a lot of people asking how to setup custom, secure, safe, “ChatGPT Like” tools with access to proprietary information. In the procurement world this could be Spending and Transaction Policies, Delegations of authority, spend thresholds or any other or a myriad SOP’s. It can even be highly detailed category specific knowledge that you you want to surface to specific individuals. Now you can with #AmazonQ. Whether it’s straight for q&a or more advanced clause extraxtion, it’s all available right now. It’s easy to setup, super safe and secure and empowers procurement teams like nothing else! If you want to know how to get the most out of Generative AI tools in procurement (whether it’s a RAG like solution like this or something else) ping me and I will be glad to share my experiences! The world is changing procurement folk… let’s make sure we change with it! #aws, #amazon, #llm, #chatgpt, #innovation, #procurement, #generativeAI

Our Kumo.AI blog post on Hybrid GNNs is out. https://lnkd.in/gpzr8TiF We have seen success with our Hybrid GNNs across several marketplace problems. Hybrid GNNs are a novel innovation at Kumo.AI because they model both repeated and explorative user interactions within a single GNN framework. The GNN automatically infers whether a user tends to do repeat purchases or tends to be more exploratory (ie buying new unseen items) and learns a repetition scalar per user. What we love about this approach is that it takes away from the standard recommendation systems architecture where you have multiple candidate generators - some for new unseen items, some for repeat behavior and then have to combine them in a final multi-objective optimization framework. Such systems which are a combination of multiple systems are hard to maintain, re-train and operationalize. On the Kaggle H&M challenge where most winning teams usually have approaches that require large amounts of feature engineering and the final system is a complex ensemble of approaches needing months to build, the Kumo.AI approach which is a 3 line predictive query that runs a Hybrid GNN under the hood is top 1%. Thanks Matthias Fey and Weihua Hu for the algorithms and innovation.

Congrats the team on ICML acceptance of the Wukong paper: https://lnkd.in/g-MyahNH, which represents a breakthrough of recommendation model design and efficiency. Recommendation models traditionally suffer from not able to utilize the full computational power of GPU (only 5-10% of peak GPU FLOPS while LLMs can reach >50%), due to their sparsity. Wukong is first of its kind by pushing toward 40% GPU peak FLOPS though model-infra codesign. One of my teams consisting of GPU experts is building a high performance model component libary where we’ll provide highly optimized model components (eg sequence summarization, x-sequence interaction, x-GPU layout scheme) that could be composed - with the goal that models built from this library have high performance out of box to scale the model-infra codesign effort. We are also scaling training beyond the limits that are typical of recommendation models - from hundreds of GPUs to 10s of thousands. If this is the kind of work that excites you, come join us!

Had an amazing time at the #Pinterest AI/ML event in San Francisco! The atmosphere was both friendly and highly professional, offering a deep dive into Pinterest’s vision and strategy in AI and ML. It was particularly exciting to learn how the team is integrating generative AI into their product and tackling complex technical challenges—from #visual #search, #ads #ranking, and #content #creation to #unbiased models and #monetization. One concept that really struck me was how Pinterest understands and engages with user intent. As Balaji Krishnapuram highlighted, people often come to Pinterest to get inspired for real-world projects—whether it's home improvement, fashion, or other personal endeavors. Understanding that intent through subtle signals is truly game-changing, and it’s fascinating how this challenge combines both data science and user experience design. On the technical front, I was impressed by how Pinterest balances personalization, relevance, and diversification in search results. It’s clear the team approaches challenges by diving deep into fundamental rigor, which is phenomenal. Big thanks to the hosts and everyone who put this amazing event together, including Aaliyah P., Balaji Krishnapuram, Chuck Rosenberg, the new CTO Matt Madrigal, and other senior leaders. It was a fantastic opportunity to gain insights into the company's culture and future direction! #Pinterest #AI #ML #GenAI #LLM #Leadership
