Dialpad Launches GPT Trained on 5bn Minutes of Conversational Data
Dialpad has announced "DialpadGPT", joining the likes of ChatGPT, Bard, Einstein GPT, SlackGPT, and more.
DialpadGPT is a domain-specific large language model (LLM) that the vendors says is the “first” that is specifically designed to cater to the evolving needs of modern businesses.
Dan O’Connell, Chief AI & Strategy Officer at Dialpad, said:
DialpadGPT was purpose-built for the enterprise, and addresses businesses’ common qualms with existing LLMs. “It leverages our transcription engine, that has best-in-class accuracy, to produce strong, unbiased results at a fast speed, provides the opportunity to scale, and meets high security and compliance standards – all at a lower cost than existing LLMs."
DialpadGPT was developed over five years and leverages real-time generative AI based on five billion minutes of proprietary conversational data to automate tasks and enhance customer service, sales, and recruiting experiences for enterprises.
DialpadGPT has been built with scalability in mind to make AI more accessible to businesses who can then utilise Dialpad’s generative features from the first day of deployment. For businesses dealing with AI and machine learning application problems due to knowledge gaps or a lack of internal expertise, DialpadGPT provides no-code options so it's easier to adopt AI for sale, service, and recruitment.
"AI has been at the heart of Dialpad’s business for more than five years, and we’re excited to bring such a transformative tool to market," O'Connell added.
Why This Hybrid Meeting Policy Needed the Queen’s Approval
Every organisation’s IT and audiovisual departments had their own unique challenges in adapting to the COVID-19 pandemic, but for Benji Fox, Head of Audiovisual at the Royal Academy, his and his team's quirk is especially peculiar and delightful.
“It’s run by artists who are voted in as Royal Academicians, and we had this challenge with general assembly meetings being held quarterly, where they vote in new Academicians, and interestingly, there is a law around how you vote in Academicians," Fox outlined.
The challenge emerged when the sign-off of some decisions required people to be ‘present’ in person at a time when travel was essentially impossible.
There was one law that to be able to vote in, the Academician had to be present. We changed the meaning of that law to say that online can count as being present, which was signed by the Queen. That was the level of sign-off we had!"
Meeting equity, approved by the Queen.
In Fox's wide-ranging interview with UC Today, he discusses his and his team's expansive remit at the Royal Academy, how an illustrious arts institution adapted to the pandemic, and why AI might be a shrewd future investment for his organisation.
