Talk: Human Language is the new UI. How is this possible? at Memphis Global AI Community Bootcamp event!

Earlier today I spoke at the Memphis edition of the Global AI Bootcamp 2025 hosted by the Memphis Technology User Groups. My talk was “Human Language is the new UI. How is this possible?” and resources and a few notes follow. Thank you Douglas Starnes for organizing! It was similar to, but not identical to, the recent talk I gave. And next time it will be different again. 😉

This is from the https://funwithvectors.com app I used to show vectors in action:

┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃······· ⟪0.64⟫ → ‘doctor’ vs ‘physician’
┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃······· ⟪0.67⟫ → ‘doctor’ vs ‘dr.’
┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃┃·········· ⟪0.48⟫ → ‘physician’ vs ‘dr.’

The above is intended to illustrate the non-transitive nature of the “nearness” of two vectors. Just because “doctor” & “physician” are close and “doctor” & “dr.” are close does NOT mean “dr.” & “physician” are as close.
