Next Meeting, April 12
At the last meeting we had an AI installfest which was very engaging. It only took a few minutes to install and configure ollama, and we proceeded downloading several language models and testing some basic prompts. We will continue from where we left off, comparing various models and experimenting prompts. And of course we’ll have time for an open discussion about whatever amazes or amuses us!
We gather online at https://meet.jit.si/mdlugmeeting, starting at 12:00 noon EST/EDT. We continue until about 3:00 pm, giving everyone ample time to join. If there’s a presentation or specific topic, it begins at 1:00 pm.
