  • The Next AI Revolution: A Tutorial Using VAEs to Generate High-Quality Synthetic Data

    The Next AI Revolution: A Tutorial Using VAEs to Generate High-Quality Synthetic Data What is synthetic data? Data created by a computer intended to replicate or augment existing data. Why is it useful? We have all experienced the success of ChatGPT, Llama, and more recently, DeepSeek. These language models are being used ubiquitously across society…

  • Synthetic Data Generation with LLMs

    Synthetic Data Generation with LLMs Popularity of RAG Over the past two years while working with financial firms, I’ve observed firsthand how they identify and prioritize Generative AI use cases, balancing complexity with potential value. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) often stands out as a foundational capability across many LLM-driven solutions, striking a balance between ease of implementation…
