Hi everyone, this is Utsha. Why sleep when the GPUs are sitting idle and I could be training some models? That's the motto I go by.
Other than AI and data, I enjoy fishing & cooking those fishes lol! 🐟

I evaluated large language models and wrote a paper about it to ensure you can rely on ChatGPT and other LLMs for accurate financial advice for absolutely free! 😉
Spoiler: You can trust LLMs for financial advice... with around 70% accuracy.
