Well done Aryo Pradipta Gema and team. 🏆

A great example of work which wouldn’t have been be possible without the significant amount of compute provided to us by the Edinburgh International Data Facility at EPCC. 🙏

We have learnt first-hand that Scottish Gaelic data used to train LLMs is largely made up of badly translated Gaelic. This is why we need to create good quality language data and corpora for low-resource languages. Will Lamb 🌱

Very happy to hear that I was successful in obtaining an IASH, Edinburgh Sabbatical Fellowship next semester.

The Edinburgh Clinical NLP Group is excited to be supporting this new leaderboard on the preformance of LLMs in medical question answering.

New: Open Medical LLM Leaderboard! 🩺

In basic chatbots, errors are annoyances.
In medical LLMs, errors can have life-threatening consequences 🩸

It's therefore vital to benchmark/follow advances in medical LLMs before thinking about deployment.

Many thanks for the invitation to present the keynote at #GeoExT at #ecir2024 where I reported work on exploring neighbourhood health through the analysis of geoparsed and clustered local news (AIM-CISC). Also great to see what's happening in geo-NLP.
