It’s exactly 10 years since my first day at Google. What I’ve learnt:

My new hobby: Figuring out the best LLM to make charts and drawings with SVG.
In this case I asked the LLMs to "draw an svg chart of the top 10 major cities in North America by perfect days, include a happy sun", and you can see here the results.

7 out of 10 LLMs got this simple geographic question wrong. Can we trust AI with even basic questions?
The question and the correct answer: youtube.com/watch?v=f33-IRp8…
The shocking part: Google @GeminiApp, @MistralAI, @OpenAI o3... all got it wrong.
Trust - but verify.

For proof, here's me asking 10 LLMs through @yupp_ai: yupp.ai/chat/7578801d-a374-4… - they make it really easy to do your own evals.

How is data made? On Saturday I boarded a 7am bus to Reno to figure it out.
From algorithms to door-knocking, this weekend changed how I see campaign data - and made me a better data professional too.
Here's what I learned: linkedin.com/posts/hoffa_how… 🇺🇸

I’m ready to announce my newest “label”. I recently reflected on how I’m taking some time-out to figure out who “Felipe” is, leaving behind the “from @SnowflakeDB" and “from @Google” labels. Well, I went yesterday to a life changing interview, and... linkedin.com/feed/update/urn… 🇺🇸

If I lived anywhere else in the world, I'd visit San Francisco. There's so many opportunities to learn, discover, and meet others in the tech world. And I even won the 3rd place at an @awscloud AI hackathon!

Check out this @streamlit app from @CARTO
carto-demo-wildfires.streaml…
It shows a hex heatmap of wildfire risk in California, plus nice human-readable explanations generated using @SnowflakeDB Cortex AI.
And it's open source! Click the Github link in the top right to view the code.
