Beyond LLM-Washing: When other ML models are simply better

Since ChatGPT was announced, large language models (LLMs) have taken the spotlight and are frequently used as solutions for a broad range of use cases. However, there's a rich ecosystem of machine learning models beyond LLMs that can provide more effective, efficient, and practical solutions for various business problems.

This presentation aims to highlight and move beyond the trend of "LLM-washing" by showcasing real-world scenarios where other machine learning models excel over LLMs. Through clear examples and practical demonstrations, you will gain a deeper understanding of diverse AI tools and learn when and how to apply them effectively.
