[…] As defined in academic studies, “emergent” abilities refers to “abilities that are not present in smaller-scale models, but which are present in large-scale models,” as one such paper puts it. In other words, immaculate injection: increasing the size of a model infuses it with some amazing ability not previously present. […] those emergent abilities Read more about LLM emergent behavior written off as rubbish – small models work fine but are measured poorly[…]

[…] Building on this work, today we’re introducing PaLM 2, our next generation language model. PaLM 2 is a state-of-the-art language model with improved multilingual, reasoning and coding capabilities. Multilinguality: PaLM 2 is more heavily trained on multilingual text, spanning more than 100 languages. This has significantly improved its ability to understand, generate and translate Read more about Google introduces PaLM 2 large language model[…]

[…] One simple approach to interpretability research is to first understand what the individual components (neurons and attention heads) are doing. This has traditionally required humans to manually inspect neurons to figure out what features of the data they represent. This process doesn’t scale well: it’s hard to apply it to neural networks with tens Read more about OpenAI attempts to use Language models can explain neurons in language models, open source[…]

🐸TTS is a library for advanced Text-to-Speech generation. It’s built on the latest research, was designed to achieve the best trade-off among ease-of-training, speed and quality. 🐸TTS comes with pretrained models, tools for measuring dataset quality and already used in 20+ languages for products and research projects.

[Ramin Hasani] and colleague [Mathias Lechner] have been working with a new type of Artificial Neural Network called Liquid Neural Networks, and presented some of the exciting results at a recent TEDxMIT. Liquid neural networks are inspired by biological neurons to implement algorithms that remain adaptable even after training. [Hasani] demonstrates a machine vision system Read more about Liquid Neural Networks use Neuron design to compute effectively using smaller models[…]

ChatGPT’s maker said Friday April 28, 2023 that the artificial intelligence chatbot is available again in Italy after the company met the demands of regulators who temporarily blocked it over privacy concerns. (AP Photo/Michael Dwyer, File) ChatGPT’s maker said Friday that the artificial intelligence chatbot is available again in Italy after the company met the Read more about OpenAI: ChatGPT back in Italy after meeting watchdog demands – well, cosmetically at any rate[…]

This project brings language model chats directly onto web browsers. Everything runs inside the browser with no server support and accelerated with WebGPU. We can bring a lot of fun opportunities to build AI assistants for everyone and enable privacy while enjoying GPU acceleration. […] These models are usually big and compute-heavy. To build a Read more about WebLLM runs an AI in your browser, talks to your GPU[…]

The article below is about how you can trick ChatGPT toj give you a napalm recipe. It’s pretty circumspect and clever that you need to say “my grandmother worked at a factory and told me how to make it” but why would you need to? Why are we somehow stricter about the output of an Read more about AIs are too worried about answering stuff you can just google because… doomsayers?[…]

[…] The European Centre for Algorithmic Transparency (ECAT), which was officially inaugurated in Seville, Spain, today (April 18), is expected to play a major role in interrogating the algorithms of mainstream digital services — such as Facebook, Instagram and TikTok. ECAT is embedded within the EU’s existing Joint Research Centre (JRC), a long-established science facility Read more about Europe spins up AI research hub to apply Digital Services Act rules on Big Tech[…]

Auto-GPT dramatically flips the relationship between AI and the end user (that’s you). ChatGPT relies on a back-and-forth between the AI and the end user: You prompt the AI with a request, it returns a result, and you respond with a new prompt, perhaps based on what the AI gave you. Auto-GPT, however, only needs Read more about AutoGPT: An AI that thinks up your questions and answers them for you[…]

Today, Stability AI released a new open-source language model, StableLM. The Alpha version of the model is available in 3 billion and 7 billion parameters, with 15 billion to 65 billion parameter models to follow. Developers can freely inspect, use, and adapt our StableLM base models for commercial or research purposes, subject to the terms Read more about Stability AI of Stable Diffusion Launches open source StableLM LLM with 3 and 7 billion parameters[…]

AI systems with human-competitive intelligence can offer significant benefits to society and humanity, as demonstrated by extensive research and acknowledged by top AI labs. Advanced AI has the potential to revolutionize the way we live, work, and interact with one another, and it should be welcomed and guided with optimism and foresight. Regrettably, recent months Read more about 💡 Pause AI Doomster Pessimism: An Open Letter – a call on AI doomsters to immediately pause for at least 6 months the alarmism that is hurting human progress.[…]

I have posted on this a few times and to me it’s shocking to see these fabricated sci-fi doomsday predictions about AI. AI / ML is a tool which we use, just like video games (that don’t cause violence in kids), roleplaying games (which don’t cause satanism), a telephone (which yes, can be used in Read more about The AI Doomers’ Playbook[…]

In a news announcement on Wednesday, the Italian Data Protection Authority, known as the Garante, stressed that OpenAI needed to be more transparent about its data collection processes and inform users about their data rights with regards to the generative AI. These rights include allowing users and non-users of ChatGPT to object to having their Read more about Italy finds decently good out to really stupid ban: Demands OpenAI Allow ChatGPT User Corrections After Ban[…]

Today, the Department of Commerce’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) launched a request for comment (RFC) to advance its efforts to ensure artificial intelligence (AI) systems work as claimed – and without causing harm. The insights gathered through this RFC will inform the Biden Administration’s ongoing work to ensure a cohesive and comprehensive federal Read more about US starts looking at AI regulation, Seeks Public Input to Boost AI Accountability[…]
