What is In-context Learning, and how does it work | Floatbot

Discover how long contexts and in-context learning in large language models (LLMs) can significantly increase LLM performance.

In context learning in LLM further enhances the model’s ability to adapt to new tasks. And provide more relevant responses based on information you provide in the conversation you are having.

In context learning is a feature of Large language models (LLMs). Basically, you give the model examples of what you want it to do (via prompts) and it takes those examples to perform the required task. So that you can skip explicit retraining. How it works:

I knew that the next step in the process was that the food waste would be converted to compost, therefore designed this simple bag of soil to form part of the narrative.

Food Waste in 2022

Food waste is a global environmental issue that must be addressed immediately - in this blog we'll take a look at the reasons why the issue of food waste needs to be solved today.

I was shocked reading on this website about the huge impact food waste actually has and the stats that aren't spoken about enough.  The website states some ways in which we can be more mindful about food waste and I aim to show that in my concept. 

“Organising your meals ahead of time so that you understand exactly what you'll consume from the shop and don't waste money on items that won't be consumed.

Consider cooking larger quantities of food in bulk and storing any leftovers for later.

Set up a compost heap in your garden.

Regularly cleaning out your fridge, keeping track of all expiration dates.”

The fact that so much food is wasted makes a lot of sense when you take into consideration the way produce is sold at chain supermarkets. All packaged in large bulks and numbers making it difficult for small families or even people living alone to be mindful of how much food they are wasting. Buying an entire pack of something when only one or two are required is inevitably going to produce waste. Single serve fruit and vegetables are becoming more rare and limited down to only broccoli, potatoes, onions etc. Things like spices are better served loose without packaging as no one ever needs/uses more than what is required for a recipe, unless they are an experienced chef. 

As much as supermarkets are trying to reduce single use plastic by replacing the packaging with paper, it still doesn't factor in the food that is still going off due to pack sizes being too big. Supermarkets have also recently brought in a new policy that they're leaving the dates off of packing now to “reduce waste” but really it just means that quality isn't guaranteed and you never know what is going to last in the fridge and what isn't. If you buy a food shop and purchase a selection of produce meant for a few days time and when you reached for it you found it had gone past its obvious best before date - it still becomes waste. It only reduces waste for the company itself and cuts costs on what the company has to account for when sell by dates occur or when produce can't be sold any more.

This was my first render from my board game example for the use of my font. I thought it was slightly too fast so ended up slowing it down in the final render.

This is the start of my process of making a board game to show how the my type face would work in a merchandising way. I think I want to switch the type direction round slightly.

This was another trial for the 36DaysOfType event that will act as an animation for an instagram post. Trialing different animation and colour use. The colours here remind me of a children's programme and I want it to seem more Sci-Fi like.

Carla Palette is a brand designer and art director and I love her prints using these striking type faces. I particularly love the type that appears to be squashed as I think it creates a really playful approach to the general conventions of type and as a result portrays a more illustrative effect. I also like her use of negative space within her type prints and using size and width and thickness to play around with the use of hierarchy.

Cierra Nicole is an instagram graphic designer who does these extremely engaging type forms involving messages and sentences. She breaks conventions of a standard letter form and pays more attention to the flow of the letter combining the shapes and sizing of its dimensions. Despite being unconventional, it doesn't take away from the readability and also the artistic expression of the typeface. The letters melt, flow and bend and create a more illustrative aesthetic rather than an actual legible type face.
