SUMMARY:MaineR User Group - What does it mean for an LLM to think?
DESCRIPTION:We’re meeting up at Novare Res again after work (5:30PM) as we slowly start to build up the base and regularity of the group. \nIn March\, we thought it’d be nice to have a central topic to discuss and settled on the idea of “thinking” and large language models (LLMs\, e.g. Claude\, Gemini). \n(…among the casual networking\, talking about Claude + Positron integrations\, complaining in a safe space about impossible data requests) \nMid-April\, we will send out a few papers/blogs via the newsletter (yet to be created\, but will be created mid-April)\, so if you’re interested in attending\, the reading and details will be sent out there. \nReading is NOT required to attend\, but does give attendees a common topic to bond\, chat\, ask questions\, pontificate about. \nThe group ranges from people who have never used R once to those who depend on it to regularly publish peer reviewed research. \nPlease RSVP on the Meet Up so we have an idea of how big of a table to snag. \nWe’ll also announce that we’ve got our first guest speaker booked in for later this year! \nhttps://www.meetup.com/maine-r-users-group/events/313982347/ \nLook for the group with the letter R on the table!
