I’m Olivier, a problem solver, web developer, entrepreneur working on AI for social impact based in Canada. I’m the founder of Mills IT Consulting and Baobab Tech, where we develop solutions that use Language Models and AI to empower organizations.
Baobab Tech's "Rapid Research" process leverages AI through a compact 300-line script transforming information synthesis. This innovative approach saves hundreds of research hours, enabling quick, comprehensive topic scans and informed decision-making for development and humanitarian projects.
We advocate for a shift towards accessible fine-tuning tools, specialized AI models, and agentic frameworks with smaller actors. It addresses the limitations of large foundation models while improving efficiency, flexibility, and context-awareness in artificial intelligence development and deployment.
Integrating advanced strategies in building LLM applications, focusing on optimized web data preprocessing, domain-specific customizations, and UI/UX enhancements. Techniques like smart web crawling, effective data parsing, and employing advanced embedding models improve responsiveness and efficiency. The continuous evolution in tools and methods promises significant impacts across various domains.
We introduce a straightforward method to transform log frame data into a standardized, LM-friendly format, enhancing project analysis, comparison, and reporting. This practical approach simplifies understanding and managing diverse project frameworks.
