Welcome to the Digital Home of James Ravenscroft Machine Learning and NLP specialist and software generalist.
|
||||
|
||||
<img src="/images/avatar_small.png" style="max-width:250px;">
|
||||
|
||||
I am a Chief Technology Officer and Software Engineer specialising in Machine Learning and in particular, Natural Language Processing. I am an amateur musician, cook and photographer and I love to read fiction and watch box sets and movies. I live with my wife and cats in the south of England.
|
||||
|
||||
On this site you will find:
|
||||
|
||||
- A selection of [essays and long-form posts](/posts/) that I have written about software engineering, philosophy, machine learning and AI, and personal topics.
|
||||
- A [microblog of shorter content](/notes/) in response to things that interest me, including some photos.
|
||||
- [Links](/bookmarks/) to content that I've found and read along with my comments and responses.
|
||||
|
||||
You can find more of my thoughts and in-progress writing over on my [Digital Garden](https://notes.jamesravey.me)

I love this post by Tracy. I think that it's easy to fall into the trap of "I've started so I'll finish" as a badge of honour when it comes to books, even when I'm not enjoying them any more.
|
||||
|
||||
I also echo the sentiment about knowing what you like. Whilst I enjoy a good pop-sci non fiction book, biographies trigger my "air raid siren".
|
||||
|
||||
I also like having multiple non fiction books on the go whilst I power through one good story.
|
||||
|
||||
Reading what you want, when you want is also a great directive. I find that if I'm feeling industrious, I might want to sit and make notes on a non fic but sometimes if I'm tired or anxious (e.g. Sunday scaries), a good story is great escapism.

Herbert writes about companies squeezing good deals once they've lured enough customers in (aka enshittification)
|
||||
|
||||
> You can bet that the better a deal sounds, the more likely it’s temporary. The company is going to squeeze at some point
|
||||
|
||||
As an end customer, make hay while the sun shines and look out for good deals but also take heed of anything that could prevent you from leaving when something goes south. That could be as explicit as an in-contract price hikes or simply a lack of interoperability that would make you think twice about leaving a service after all the time and effort you put in to organising your siloed information.

Gary's article dropped on Friday and has been widely circulated and commented upon over the weekend.
|
||||
|
||||
It shows that LLMs struggle to generalise outside of their prompt (they know that Tom Cruise's mum is Mary Lee Pfeifer but don't know that Mary Lee Pfeiffer's son is Tom Cruise - but there are many more examples). This is a known weakness of neural networks that I wrote about in my [EACL2021 paper](https://aclanthology.org/2021.eacl-main.21.pdf) and that has previously been documented as far back as the 90s. What's interesting is that it still holds today for these massive models with billions of parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
For me, the message here isn't "LLMs aren't intelligent so let's write them off as a technology" but rather it's more evidence that they're a powerful and yet limited tool in our arsenal and that they're not a silver bullet. It vindicates and validates approaches that combine technologies to get to the desired output (for example, pairing an LLM with a graph database could help with the mum/son thing).
|
||||
|
||||
For me this is a stake in the heart for the whole " there's the spark of general intelligence there" argument too. I find these kinds of probing/diagnostic tests done on models really interesting too.

<p>The question could be paraphrased as "why would we need to efficiently store and retrieve data in a deterministic way when we have GenAI?" This is like asking "why do we need cars when we have speedboats?" or "Why do we need butter knives now that we've invented the chainsaw?".</p>

Another self-hosted paas type platform similar to [Dokku](https://dokku.com/) and [Coolify](https://coolify.io/).
|
||||
|
||||
An interesting distinction is that RtS seems to specifically use kubernetes orchestration whereas Dokku and Coolify tend to prefer docker. Since kubernetes is on my list to dive into a little bit more.
|
||||
|
||||
I've started a [digital garden page](https://notes.jamesravey.me/Software/Reclaim-The-Stack) about it for taking notes.

> Oligo’s research team recently uncovered 6 vulnerabilities in Ollama, one of the leading open-source frameworks for running AI models. Four of the flaws received CVEs and were patched in a recent version, while two were disputed by the application’s maintainers, making them shadow vulnerabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
This work provides some concrete evidence that hosting public-facing Ollama instances is a bad idea. It's great to see that some of the vulnerabilities were already fixed but it also tracks that making an API that's allowed to consume a bunch of GPU time accessible to the public might allow baddies to take advantage of your systems. If you (or your organisation) are planning to use Ollama for model hosting, I recommend [running it behind litellm](https://brainsteam.co.uk/2024/07/08/ditch-that-chatgpt-subscription-moving-to-pay-as-you-go-ai-usage-with-open-web-ui/)

Had a run in with this little guy this morning. He's been living in our garage eating bird seed out of a sack I bought for our bird feeders for a few weeks. I set up infrared cameras and humane traps and I've been watching him scurrying around cutely at night.we released him into a hedgerow next to a big field this morning and I'm kind of going to miss him.

Started playing [Tiny Life]( https://store.steampowered.com/app/1651490/Tiny_Life/), an isometric pixel art remake of The Sims 1 which is still in early access on steam but is already amazingly rounded out and cute. Getting some serious nostalgia vibes. Highly recommended.

Went to see Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning. It was ok as a cheesy action film. The AI storyline was a bit irksome but there was a bit where everyone went "yeah the biggest problem is gonna be who ends up controlling this AI and how they use it" and I was like "yea..."

Just got back from watching The Meg 2. It got really bad reviews on pretty much every major review site so I was expecting it to be just plain bad but, like the first movie, it was so-bad-its-good. Statham was on form and some of the one liners were great. I'd highly recommend it to folks who like cheesy action flicks.

<p>I was pretty horrified to be greeted by this message whilst running #ubuntu today. I've always enjoyed Ubuntu as a distro that "just works" but I'm starting to get pretty frustrated with Canonical #enshittifying the experience over time. Thinking about jumping back to Mint or possibly #fedora - I think #arch is too high maintenance.</p>

<p>Today we saw Anyone But You, a romcom starring Glen Powell and Sydney Sweet which was a retelling of much ado about nothing. The character names were a giveaway: Ben as in Benedict and Bea as in Beatrice. Overall it was a fun, silly film set in very scenic parts of Australia. The Aussie setting also meant that there was quite a lot of strong language used. It didn't take itself too seriously as the gag reel at the end showed.</p>

<p>It was lovely to head up to London today to meet up with my friend and fellow NLP nerd Daniel. We spent some time discussing some ideas we had for side projects and talked in depth about how web development has become too complex and our desire to build new software with simple stacks with html templates and limited frontend code.</p>
|

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
|
||||
<p>We spent quite a lot of time hanging out in the National Library where there's plenty of space to study and conspire over ideas and schemes. Daniel is something of a digital nomad so it's always nice to get some in-person time when possible. Unfortunately none of our contacts at the Alan Turning Institute were available to let us in today (I mean who can blame them, it's the weekend after all).</p>

<p style="padding:10px;">Had the pleasure of visiting Bletchley Park yesterday to see where Alan Turing and many others did amazing work on early computers and cryptanalysis. As a computer scientist it has been on my bucket list for a really long time so I'm glad to have finally gotten around to it. The bombe machines were fascinating. Mechanical machines (not computers as they were not general purpose/programmable) that brute forced enigma code cyphers by trying different combinations of circuits. They could try 37k combinations in 12 minutes. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BletchleyPark?src=hash" title="#BletchleyPark" class="u-url hashtag" rel="external nofollow noopener">#BletchleyPark</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/AlanTuring?src=hash" title="#AlanTuring" class="u-url hashtag" rel="external nofollow noopener">#AlanTuring</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/computers?src=hash" title="#computers" class="u-url hashtag" rel="external nofollow noopener">#computers</a></p>

So it's looking pretty bad for the creator of Reflection-70B who posted amazing results. Turns out they really were too good to be true. [it looks like they were proxying api requests to their model through to Anthropic](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41484981). The AI space is full of fraudsters but if this is substantiated, it's the most brazen example I know of so far.

I started playing Hardspace Shipbreakers last night, it's a really fun space sim game which is quite relaxed and not too aggressie. However, the standout feature is definitely the soundtrack which is absolutely amazing americana/bluegrass style instrumental music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxTyMVPaOXY

Took a slightly disappointing trip up to the top of Portsdown hill with my heltec V3 node to see if I could connect to the mesh in Portsmouth. What I didn't realise is that I needed to disable the WiFi profile on the device from home in order to get Bluetooth comms with my android phone working. Next time I need to reconfigure before I go out... Or buy more nodes 👿

Seems the slightly better antennae I got with the 2nd heltec that came yesterday has been able to ping some nodes in Gosport and mesh-hopped into Portsmouth. Unfortunately it's not strong enough to have picked up much more than the device shortnames. The new Parador 5dbi mast I picked up yesterday should fix that... Not addicted I promise 😅

Glad to have my trusty delonghi coffee machine functioning again thanks to a trip to the Gosport Repair Cafe this afternoon. Superb help and advice from professional and amateur volunteers. We managed to figure out that I had reassembled the machine incorrectly when I last tried to fix it for a different reason.

## What I do for work
|
||||
|
||||
- I've been freelancing and [building websites](https://web.archive.org/web/20051102052726/http://www.simssource.net/) since the mid 00s
|
||||
- I started my full time career at IBM in 2011 in their [CICS transaction processing product](https://www.ibm.com/it-infrastructure/z/cics) before moving over to Watson where I was a customer-facing solutions architect which entailed helping other techies to use Watson APIs and services.
|
||||
- In 2016 I left IBM to co-found [Filament AI](https://filament.ai), formerly an AI & ML consultancy and now a software product business where I am currently CTO and Chief Data Scientist. I oversee and manage our technical roadmap and strategy, but I also keep my hands dirty and regularly deliver code for customers and for our products.
|
||||
- In 2022 I wrapped up up my part-time PhD which I've been working on under the dual supervision of [Prof. Maria Liakata](https://www.turing.ac.uk/people/researchers/maria-liakata) at the [Alan Turing Institute](https://www.turing.ac.uk/) [Dr Amanda Clare](https://users.aber.ac.uk/afc/) at Aberystwth University (where I finished my BSc in 2013).
|
||||
- My main academic affiliation was with [University of Warwick](https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/dcs/) but, I often crash Turing events and, I've been known to visit Aberystwyth to give talks at careers events and departmental seminars.

|
||||
## What I do for fun
|
||||
|
||||
- I'm a big fan of food - both cooking and eating it.
|
||||
- I like to tinker with software and hardware (like [this talking moose head](/2016/06/05/blackgangpi-a-raspberry-pi-hack-at-blackgang-chine/)) in my spare time. I'm a big fan of open source culture including efforts to decentralise the web like [indieweb](https://indieweb.org/) and [the fediverse](https://fediverse.party/en/fediverse).
|
||||
- I like to read, frequently science fiction and fantasy but the occasional pop-sci title or general fiction. I have historically tracked some of my reading over at [Goodreads](https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/4547536-james-ravenscroft) but I now keep track with [Bookwyrm](https://bookwyrm.social/user/jamesravey) and eventually I plan to start tracking this stuff here via [bookwyrm](https://indiebookclub.biz/) and micropub.
|
||||
- I like to watch box sets and movies - my wife and I are [Cineworld Unlimited card](cineworld.co.uk/) holders.
|
||||
- I've been playing saxophone (Alto and Tenor mainly) off-and-on since the early 2000s. I can also play a few chords on a guitar and I'll happily tinker with a piano/keyboard, harmonica and clarinet although don't ask me to play you a full track!
|
||||
- Although I've not had time recently I did really enjoy [Lindyhop](/2015/06/28/bedford-place-vintage-festival/) - a 1920s style swing dance.

A weekend experiment where I attempted to use [GGML](https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml/) quantized tensors to run a state-of-the-art code completion model on commodity hardware including laptops, desktops, ARM machines like Macbooks and even Raspberry Pis. As the GGML library matures, I'm adding support for things like Nvidia GPU support too.

|
||||
|
||||
A tool for annotating co-references of entities that occur in linked news paper article/scientific paper pairings. Some 'sharp' code but this was my first venture into 'full stack' using ReactJS on the frontend and Flask on the backend. The repository also contains the final corpus which we made available as part of our EACL21 publication.

|
||||
An NLP pipeline for processing and enriching scientific papers with sentence-level information about their core scientific concepts (CoreSCs). This is a Python 3 implementation of Prof Maria Liakata's 2010 paper. We provide a free web service for low volume requests and a simple to use docker configuration for those who want to run the software over a larger number of papers.

- After 7 years I have [finished my PhD thesis](https://brainsteam.co.uk/2022/09/25/phinished/) and [submitted it](https://brainsteam.co.uk/notes/2022/09/09/1662742877/). My PHD has been a huge part of my life and identity and it's been weird adapting to not working on it during every free moment any more.
|
