Hi I'm Susan from TechSoup. I was wondering when nonprofits should decide that they should opt for a paid version of a generative AI tool versus a free one? What are the differences and how do nonprofits make that decision? Also - how do you load a large doc into a generative AI tool and get a result? For ex, entering an article in and getting a presentation back from the tool?
Its a great question Susan! Paid versions typically will have more features/functions/abilities then their respective free versions. At PJMF, we typically start by doing some simple prototyping with the free versions and move to the paid version as we incorporate the LLM in our products. Typically that will support faster response times, higher capacity (ie: token size, etc), etc.
In regards to your second question, most of the newer versions of these LLM's now have mulimodal support (https://openai.com/research/gpt-4, https://docs.anthropic.com/claude/docs/models-overview). This allows you the ability to now feed in docs, and depending on the use case, generated appropriate responses. At PJMF, we utilize this feature in one of our latest products that's designed to allow funders to perform financial due diligence on nonprofit financial statements (as a part of their risk assessment). We feed the financial docs directly as context to the LLM, and is able to parse through and pull out the necessary financial data points, quite accurately I may add.
