 Audacious
Leadership:
Empowering You
to Soar
Why Being Bold is Essential for Men and Women
in Leadership Who want to Change Pakistan
An audacious person is someone who is extremely bold,
daring, and fearless. They are willing to take risks or do
something that may be seen as unconventional or risky.
The greatest leaders find power in audacity and use it
for good, not for feeding their ego.
Being Bold Allows You To
Command attention: A confident, audacious leader
automatically gains more attention and credibility.

Break through barriers: Courageous decisions often

lead to the breaking down existing, unfair structures.

Inspire others: Audacity has a ripple effect; it

encourages others to be audacious in their
professional lives as well.
Audacious Leadership
Empowering Women to Soar:
Women Facing the Double Standard
The unfortunate reality is that audacious women often face a double-edged
sword. If you’re too bold, you will risk being labeled aggressive, bossy, or
emotional.

If we’re too passive, they risk going unnoticed and unappreciated.

This “Goldilocks Dilemma” makes audacity a tricky tightrope to walk for

many women. But given that the scales have been tipped against women
for so long, a little audacity can help balance them back.
GenAI: The Fastest Adopted Technology In History

● In a report, 2023 Generative AI in the Enterprise, published November

21, said two-thirds of survey respondents already were using
generative AI.
● The rapid uptake of this technology is largely driven by executives
recognizing its potential to significantly boost productivity. They are
actively encouraging their leadership teams to deploy it and are
dedicating considerable corporate resources for its implementation.
The momentum for adoption is emanating from both upper
management and employees at various levels within the
organizations.
● Adoption will climb to 77.8 million users in the first two years, more
than doubling the adoption rate of both tablets and smartphones,
according to our forecast.
Generative AI could add up
to $4.4 Trillion Annually to
Global Economy
McKinsey's latest research estimates
that generative AI could add the
equivalent of $2.6 trillion to $4.4
trillion annually across the 63 use
cases analyzed by McKinsey -- by
comparison, the United Kingdom's
entire GDP in 2021 was $3.1 trillion.

AI Will be the Biggest Wealth Creator in History
● AI will be the greatest wealth creator in history because
artificial intelligence doesn’t care where you were born,
whether you have money, whether you have a PhD.
● It’s going to destroy barriers that have prevented people
from moving up the ladder, and pursuing their dream of
economic freedom.
● It’s not that if you don’t jump on it now, you never can.
● It’s that now is the greatest opportunity for
you to capitalize on it.
What is Generative AI?
● Generative AI (GenAI) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI)
that can produce new content. It uses machine learning,
deep learning, and neural networks to create a variety of
data, such as: Images, Videos, Audio, Text, 3D models,
Music, Speech, Software code, Product designs.
● Generative AI is a subset of AI that involves teaching
machines to create something new rather than just
analyzing existing data.
● ChatGPT, and Bard are examples of generative AI
applications that produce text or images based on
user-given prompts or dialogue.
I didnʼt expect ChatGPT to get so good, says Bill
Gates in a chat with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman
Artificial Intelligence (AI) Revolution
There are certain chapters of history that come to be regarded as
phase transitions for humanity, moments in which cultural
evolution and the course of our individual, day-to-day lives shift in
entirely new directions – for better or for worse.

We tend to call these historical shifts “revolutions”; think of the

Agricultural Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, the Digital
Revolution.

We are currently, living through what many have begun to call the
Artificial Intelligence (AI) Revolution.
What the Age of AI Means for the World (Bill Gates)
● The development of AI is as fundamental as the creation of the
microprocessor, the personal computer, the Internet, and the mobile
phone.
● It will change the way people work, learn, travel, get health care, and
communicate with each other.
● Entire industries will reorient around it.
● Businesses will distinguish themselves by how well they use it.
● Globally, the worst inequity is in health: 5 million children under the age
of 5 die every year. That’s down from 10 million two decades ago, but it’s
still a shockingly high number.
● Nearly all of these children were born in poor countries and die of
preventable causes like diarrhea or malaria.
● It’s hard to imagine a better use of AIs than saving the lives of children.
What the Age of AI Means for the World (Bill Gates)
● Advances in AI will enable the creation of a personal agent. You’ll
be able to use natural language to have this agent help you with
scheduling, communications, and e-commerce, and it will work
across all your devices.
● Company-wide agents will empower employees in new ways. An
agent that understands a particular company will be available for
its employees to consult directly and should be part of every
meeting so it can answer questions.
● Global health and education are two areas where there’s great
need and not enough workers to meet those needs. These are
areas where AI can help reduce inequity if it is properly targeted.
Risks and Problems with AI

● Any new technology that’s so disruptive is

bound to make people uneasy, and that’s
certainly true with artificial intelligence.
● It raises hard questions about the
workforce, the legal system, privacy, bias,
and more.
● AIs also make factual mistakes and
experience hallucinations.
Generative AI has Transformed the Very
Grammar of Our Culture
● Generative AI’ has become a household phrase,
spawning even buzzier abbreviations such as ‘gen
AI’ and ‘GAI.’
● The Cambridge Dictionary 2023 Word of the Year
was ‘hallucinate,’ a nod to the tendency for LLMs to
occasionally assert false information.
● OpenAI, primarily through ChatGPT and their GPT
series of LLMS, have really transformed the world
The Future of the Mouse: Will It Become Obsolete in the
Age of AI?
Eventually your main way of controlling a computer will no longer be
pointing and clicking or tapping on menus and dialogue boxes. Instead,
you’ll be able to write or speak a request in plain English. (And not just
English—AIs will understand languages from around the world.)

What are Large Language Models (LLMs)?
LLMs, are a powerful type of artificial intelligence that excels in natural language
processing tasks. They are essentially giant neural networks trained on massive amounts
of text data, allowing them to learn the intricacies of human language and perform
impressive feats like:

● Generating human-quality text: This includes creative writing formats like poems,
code, scripts, emails, letters, etc., often indistinguishable from human-written
content.
● Understanding language: LLMs can analyze text structure, grammar, and
semantics, allowing them to comprehend the meaning and context of information.
● Answering your questions in an informative way: By accessing and processing vast
amounts of data, LLMs can provide comprehensive and insightful answers to your
inquiries.
● Performing various NLP tasks: From translation and summarization to sentiment
analysis and text classification, LLMs are versatile tools for manipulating and
understanding language.
Cost Involved in Developing your own LLM?
The cost of developing your own LLM can vary greatly depending on several factors,
ranging from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of dollars. Let's break down the
main factors that influence cost:

1. Training approach

● Pre-training from scratch:

● Fine-tuning a pre-trained model

2. Model size and complexity

3. Hardware and infrastructure

4. Human resources
Business Case For Fine-Tuning and using APIs
From a business perspective, fine-tuning a pre-trained LLM with your
data and building your application using APIs is generally much more
sensible than training from scratch for several reasons:

● Training from scratch is incredibly expensive, requiring massive

amounts of data, powerful hardware, and expert personnel.
Fine-tuning leverages the pre-trained model's existing knowledge,
significantly reducing training time and cost.
● APIs offer pay-as-you-go models, allowing you to scale your
usage and costs based on your specific needs. This avoids the
upfront investment and ongoing maintenance costs associated
with maintaining your own infrastructure.
Three Approaches of Using LLMs
These are three different ways of using large language models
(LLMs) to create artificial intelligence (AI) applications:

1. Using a web interface

2. Building a software based application using APIs

● Chat Completion APIs
● Assistant APIs

3. Developing GPTs using fine-tuning and GPT Actions

Generative AI Applications: GUI vs. CUI
Both Graphic User Interface (GUI) and Conversational User Interface (CUI) are essential
methods for interacting with generative AI applications, but they offer different user
experiences and have unique characteristics:

A GUI is a visual way of interacting with a computer using items like windows, icons, and
buttons. The user interacts with the software through graphical elements.

In the context of generative AI, a GUI might present visual tools for creating, modifying, or
interacting with AI-generated content. For instance, an AI-powered design tool could use
sliders, color pickers, and text boxes to input user preferences, which the AI then uses to
generate images or designs.

CUIs focus on natural language interaction, allowing users to communicate with systems
through voice or text.
What is an API?
An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of rules and
specifications that define how two pieces of software can communicate
and exchange data with each other. It's like a messenger or translator that
enables different systems or applications to interact seamlessly, even if
they were created by different developers or written in different
programming languages.

Think of an API as a restaurant menu. The menu provides a well-defined

list of dishes (functions) that the kitchen can prepare, along with their
ingredients (inputs) and prices (outputs). Customers (developers) can
order from the menu without needing to know the inner workings of the
kitchen (the underlying code).
API-AI Nexus
The API-AI nexus refers to the powerful intersection and growing
interdependence between APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) and
AI (Artificial Intelligence).

AI-Powered APIs:
APIs are increasingly incorporating AI capabilities, offering intelligent
features.

APIs as Gateways to AI:

APIs act as the primary access points for developers and businesses to
harness the power of AI models and services.
API-AI-Cloud Nexus
AI, API, and Cloud Nexus is a term that refers to the combination of
artificial intelligence (AI), application programming interfaces (APIs), and
cloud computing to create generative AI applications.

Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services, such as servers,

storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, or AI, over the
internet. Cloud computing allows users to access and use these services
on demand, without having to buy or maintain their own hardware or
software.

AI, API, and Cloud Nexus is a paradigm that enables rapid and creative
development of generative AI applications, as well as efficient and
cost-effective management of data and resources.
Generative Engineering
● GenEng revolution being led by developers who build deep
proficiency in how to best leverage and integrate generative AI
technologies into applications.
● GenEng practitioners will need to have many of the same skills
of traditional application development, including scalable
architecting, integrating enterprise systems, and
understanding requirements from the business user.
● These skills will be augmented with the nuances of building
generative AI applications, such as involving the business
domain experts in validating aspects of prompt engineering
and choosing the right LLM based on price/performance and
outcomes.
What is Cloud Applied Generative AI
Engineering?
Cloud Applied Generative AI Engineering is a term that refers to the use of cloud computing and
generative AI to create and deploy AI applications. It means that you can leverage the power
and scalability of cloud platforms, such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud, to access
and use generative AI models and tools, such as ChatGPT or Gemini, through APIs.

APIs are interfaces that allow you to communicate and exchange data with AI models or
services, without having to know the technical details of how they work or how to run them. You
can also use APIs to customize and fine-tune generative AI models for your specific needs and
data.

Cloud Applied Generative AI Engineering enables you to develop generative AI applications

faster and easier, as well as manage them more efficiently and cost-effectively. It also allows
you to explore and experiment with different generative AI models and capabilities, and to
create innovative and engaging user experiences.
