I've posted my final blog post from my #pyconit keynote. This time, we investigate one of the most heated discussions about LLMs: are they actually showing signs of human-level intelligence?

Have you ever wondered whether claims of #LLMs being #sentient hold any water? I've published the second blog post from my #pyconit keynote, where I discuss this complex and fascinating area.

During the EuroPython 2024 lightning talks we promoted PyCon Italia 2025 which will take place in Bologna 🐍🇮🇹
Fun facts:
👨🎓 the University of Bologna is the oldest in the world
🚅 from Bologna you can reach Florence by train in 30 min and Venice in 1 hour
Last night we met with some PyCon Italia organizers attending EuroPython 2024 to eat a pizza together 🍕
It's a tradition to meet up at least one evening at various conferences around the world and try the best pizzeria in town 🏆
If you couldn't get a ticket this year or need to catch up on all the other talks, they are now on YouTube!

I nearly missed this, but all the videos of the talks from #PyConIT2024 have been uploaded https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFxkG856NgEG9yqSRnIMnhHNu_AnIsCO8
The edited video from my @pycon🇮🇹 talk is up. I am very happy with how this one turned out. If you have 45 minutes to spare, you might want to watch it.
(Note to self, for next time: don't stand so that half of my body is acting as the projection screen; it's a bit visually distracting.)
I've written up the first part of my #pyconit keynote talk as a blog post (finally back to writing for my personal blog!).
If you are curious about whether #language use in #LLMs is really reaching human-like levels, give it a read!

This is Ernesto. Ernesto is the best speaker communicator that I know of, in any conference I've been to.
If you run speaker communications for a conference, be like Ernesto.
