Google’s CEO has announced that Google will be an AI first company. They are adding generative AI to all of their products including search, maps, gmail and workspace. Google announces Palm-2 which powers an improved BARD as a new GPT-4 competitors. Palm-2 is integrated into 25 Google products. BARD can handle over 20 programming languages. …
The recent major human exploitable flaws found in the AI Go programs show several things about the nature of the neural net AI. 1. The complex patterns and dynamics in the numeric weights are very useful. They can go beyond human capabilities on many and maybe most tasks. 2. There is no actual understanding of …
ChatGPT, GPT-4 are Large Language Models (LLM). There are four major aspects of LLMs pre-training, adaptation tuning, utilization, and capacity evaluation. Here is one of the new summaries of the available resources for developing LLMs and issues for future directions. Chain-of-Thought (CoT) is an improved prompting strategy to boost the performance of LLMs on complex …
Martial Art Legence and Philosopher, Bruce Lee, famously said, I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times. Many now fear the AI, ChatGPT-4. ChatGPT grew from the original task of guessing the next word in a sentence, but it has …
AI is accelerating computer hardware improvement and software improvement. This was the core of the case for the Technological Singularity. AI is also accelerating the improvement speed of science. AI technology that enables the faster improvement of AI. ChatGPT, CoPilot and other Generative AI improves programming productivity by ten times. Nvidia accelerates Computational Lithography by …
Stanford Researchers have used Generative AI to simulate believable human behavior in a simulated world. Generative agents wake up, cook breakfast, and head to work; artists paint, while authors write; they form opinions, notice each other, and initiate conversations; they remember and reflect on days past as they plan the next day. To enable generative …
Goldman Sachs has an analysis that ChatGPT and other generative AI could spark a productivity boom that could automate 25% of jobs in North America and Europe and raise annual global GDP by 7% over a 10-year period. The new AI could lift productivity growth by 1.5 percentage points over a 10-year period. This is …
Vicuna is a new, powerful model based on LLaMa, and trained with GPT-4. Vicuna boasts “90%* quality of OpenAI ChatGPT and Google Bard”. This is unseen quality and performance, all on your computer and offline. Oobabooga is a UI for running Large Language Models for Vicuna and many other models like LLaMA, llama.cpp, GPT-J, Pythia, …
There are six major AI projects in the race beyond 2 trillion parameter models. There is OpenAI, Anthropic, Google/Deepmind, Meta, a UK government project and a stealth project. It takes $1-2 billion per year of resources to be in the game. There is $1 billion needed for hardware and that hardware will need to be …
Sebastien Bubeck makes the case that intelligence has emerged with the trillion parameter generative AIs. He says there are internal representations and learning algorithms inside the systems. Sebastien is a Sr. Principal Research Manager in the Machine Learning Foundations group at Microsoft Research (MSR). He says the generative systems can be used to explain itself. …
