[kdd] Call for contributions to KD-IG mini-session on generative AI and language models

[Rafael Martinez Galarza]

Hi Raffaele, Yihan,

I can give a 8 minute intro to Transformers, which is the type of algorithm
beyond GPT-4. It will not include many applications, only a
general overview, perhaps with an example of their use in time-domain
astronomy.

The title of the talk is:

"A Brief Intro to Transformers"

Thanks,
Rafael
