In the vast expanse of nature, some of the most profound inspirations come from the smallest of creatures. Insects, often overlooked due to their diminutive size, are in fact marvels of navigation and efficiency. Their ability to maneuver through complex environments with a brain no larger than a pinhead has long intrigued scientists and engineers alike.

Speaker: Scott Sehlhorst
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.

According to Microsoft research, around 88% of the world's languages , spoken by 1.2 billion people, lack access to Large Language Models (LLMs). This is because most LLMs are English-centered, i.e., they are mostly built with English data and for English speakers. ​This English dominance also prevails in LLM development and has resulted in a digital language gap, potentially excluding most people from the benefits of LLMs.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.
