  • Understanding AI Hallucinations

    AI hallucinations are a modern artificial intelligence problem that makes AI models generate incorrect, fabricated, or nonsensical information. Let’s find out why this happens and why they matter. What are AI Hallucinations? AI hallucinations happen when AI systems produce content that has no basis in their training data or doesn’t align with reality. These errors aren’t random…

  • What Are Vector Databases?

    Regular Databases = Rows and Columns Imagine a spreadsheet that keeps track of all the student clubs at Champlain College: id name category room 1 Anime Club Media C-102 2 Art Club Creative C-103 3 Robotics Team Tech C-108 4 Champlain Music Society Creative C-109 With this kind of relational database, you can basically ask:…

  • Understanding Context Window in AI

    The context window in AI refers to the maximum amount of text or data an AI model can process in a single interaction. It defines how much information AI can “remember” at once to generate meaningful responses. Analogy: Imagine having a short-term memory limit while reading a book.If you can only remember the last 2…

  • Context Windows & Tokens in AI: A Simple Explanation

    Context windows and tokens are two foundational concepts in AI, especially in Large Language Models (LLMs). Understanding these concepts will make more sense of why AI models seem to “forget” parts of the conversation once developed enough as well as why complex prompts can be misinterpreted by the model. What are Tokens ? In AI,…

  • Bias Mitigation in AI

    AI models can unintentionally develop biases based on the data they are trained on. Bias mitigation ensures AI treats all users fairly by identifying, correcting, and testing for biases. Identifying Biases in AI Bias in AI happens when models favor certain groups over others due to imbalanced or flawed training data. Examples: How to Identify…
