Nvidia, Microsoft, and OpenAI are good names to dip into sales pitches as the hype builds for generative AI, and Snowflake CEO Frank Slotman added them at Snowflake’s Summit 2023 event in Las Vegas. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang joined Slootman for a “fireside conversation” Monday night. Tuesday morning keynote.
“A large language model turns any knowledge base of data into an application,” Huang told the assembled audience.

Snowflake’s partnership with Nvidia may provide an alternative of sorts for companies concerned about ChatGPT and private information.

They found out the hard way in April, when they pasted lines of secret code into ChatGPT to try and get AI to fix an encoding problem – but once put into ChatGPT, that data becomes “property” of ChatGPT’s “brain”. back in May, Samsung has banned the use of ChatGPT as a result of.
Using Nvidia’s NeMo framework for AI developers, which was introduced back in September, Snowflake said its customers will be able to use the data in their Snowflake accounts to build custom large-language models, or LLMs, “for advanced generative AI services, including That chatbot., search and summarise, “And having the ability to customize LLM without moving data enables proprietary information to remain fully secured and governed within the Snowflake platform.”
With Snowflake using NeMo, customers aren’t sending data to a growing centralized AI, Manuvir Das, president of Nvidia’s enterprise computing business, told MarketWatch at a previous press conference. He likened copy-and-paste: once a customer starts entering data, the customer doesn’t use the original AI model but a copy, which they now alter by adding data.
“Actually, there is now a copy of the model, and that copy only belongs to that customer,” Das explained. “Nothing that happens in that version reverts to the original base model.”

It has collaborated with Nvidia on generative AI, and Das said the company is already using NeMo to “train custom models for each of its customers.” Nvidia’s Huang also appeared personally at the ServiceNow event to announce the announcement.
