A couple of times a year, I write Ruby scripts (not Rails, I have never used Rails) to make graphics for tshirts and tights (artofwhere.com) from my flickr photos and other photo sources. Is there an open source LLM that will help increase my "productivity" ? I've tried several and let's just say they are terrible. Is there an "ethical" paid LLM service to increase my "productivity:" when writing Ruby scripts? I doubt it but thought I'd ask.

Waitrose partners with Tony’s Chocolonely for ethical cocoa sourcing initiative
Waitrose has partnered with Tony’s Chocolonely to source cocoa for nine of its own-brand chocolate bars through the Dutch confectionery’s sustainable supply chain initiative, in a bid to enhance ethical procurement within its supply chain.

Open Source Language Models Can Provide Feedback: Evaluating LLMs' Ability to Help Students Using GPT-4-As-A-Judge
Large language models (LLMs) have shown great potential for the automatic generation of feedback in a wide range of computing contexts. However, concerns have been voiced around the privacy and ethical implications of sending student work to proprietary models. This has sparked considerable interest in the use of open source LLMs in education, but the quality of the feedback that such open models can produce remains understudied. This is a concern as providing flawed or misleading generated fee…

Data Collaboration Analysis Over Matrix Manifolds
The effectiveness of machine learning (ML) algorithms is deeply intertwined with the quality and diversity of their training datasets. Improved datasets, marked by superior quality, enhance the predictive accuracy and broaden the applicability of models across varied scenarios. Researchers often integrate data from multiple sources to mitigate biases and limitations of single-source datasets. However, this extensive data amalgamation raises significant ethical concerns, particularly regarding u…

Hawk: Accurate and Fast Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning Using Secure Lookup Table Computation
Training machine learning models on data from multiple entities without direct data sharing can unlock applications otherwise hindered by business, legal, or ethical constraints. In this work, we design and implement new privacy-preserving machine learning protocols for logistic regression and neural network models. We adopt a two-server model where data owners secret-share their data between two servers that train and evaluate the model on the joint data. A significant source of inefficiency a…
