With the growing AI Market. We’ve got a lot of changes coming up with us.
Lately, I have been pondering about the latest startups that are making significant progress in various fields. These startups are involved in groundbreaking work, ranging from enhancing data interactivity to exploring the potential of Large Language Models in Operations- a new concept known as LLM Ops. Additionally, I am fascinated by the advancements in search engines and generative AI, which are revolutionizing the way we interact with technology.
Many of them, I’ve seen on DEV.to, and then I thought of trying their projects. I’m surprised by the effort and innovation these companies drive.
