Product-Led AI: Marking the Before and After of Product-led Growth

Today marks a significant milestone as Databricks unveils DBRX, a large language model set to transform the landscape of product-led growth (PLG) and self-service initiatives for enterprise leaders. With DBRX bringing to life the convergence of AI, PLG, and Databricks, PLG AI is now accessible to every Enterprise product leader.

DBRX’s launch brings to mind a compelling article by Seth from Greylock that was published late last year. Seth’s visualization of this breakthrough resonates deeply, particularly amidst those who have experienced the evolution of user interfaces from the era of Clippy to the disruptive innovations of Office and Windows Fluent UI. In a world where chat-based interfaces once felt counterintuitive, DBRX brings to life a huge shift. Co-pilots as a service are just the beginning of the applications here.

This year is particularly noteworthy as it marks the shift from just using AI to enhance a product to using AI as the key unlock to product development and go-to-market business strategies.

What is DBRX?

At its core, DBRX is a large language model crafted by Databricks.

Put simply, DBRX is a smart tool created by Databricks using Databricks first-party tools. It’s designed using a special type of technology called a transformer, which helps it understand language really well. It’s also very good at predicting the next word in a sentence. DBRX is built with a special structure called a mixture-of-experts, which has a lot of different parts that work together to make it really smart. It has a total of 132 billion parts that help it do its job well. Plus, it uses some clever techniques like rotary position encodings, gated linear units, and grouped query attention to make it work even better.

tldr; DBRX is great at understanding language and doing tasks efficiently.
