You could spend it training a generative AI model.
See Databricks’ DBRX, a new generative AI model announced today akin to OpenAI’s GPT series and Google’s Gemini.
Customers can privately host DBRX using Databricks’ Model Serving offering, Rao suggested, or they can work with Databricks to deploy DBRX on the hardware of their choosing.
It’s an easy way for customers to get started with the Databricks Mosaic AI generative AI tools.
And plenty of generative AI models come closer to the commonly understood definition of open source than DBRX.
Stability AI founder and chief executive Emad Mostaque has stepped down from the top role and the unicorn startup‘s board, the buzzy firm said Friday night, making it the second hot AI startup to go through major changes this week.
Stability AI, which has lost more than half a dozen key talent in recent quarters, said Mostaque is stepping down to pursue decentralized AI.
In a series of posts on X, Mostaque opined that one can’t beat “centralized AI” with more “centralized AI,” referring to the ownership structure of top AI startups such as OpenAI and Anthropic.
“We should have more transparent & distributed governance in AI as it becomes more and more important.
“The payoffs on proper generative AI R&D are clearer and faster to market than just about anything we’ve seen.
Generative AI models like Midjourney’s are trained on an enormous number of examples — e.g.
Some vendors have taken a proactive approach, inking licensing agreements with content creators and establishing “opt-out” schemes for training data sets.
The problem with benchmarks: Many, many AI vendors claim their models have the competition met or beat by some objective metric.
Anthropic launches new models: AI startup Anthropic has launched a new family of models, Claude 3, that it claims rivals OpenAI’s GPT-4.
AI models have been helpful in our understanding and prediction of molecular dynamics, conformation, and other aspects of the nanoscopic world that may otherwise take expensive, complex methods to test.
All show “increased capabilities” in analysis and forecasting, Anthropic claims, as well as enhanced performance on specific benchmarks versus models like GPT-4 (but not GPT-4 Turbo) and Google’s Gemini 1.0 Ultra (but not Gemini 1.5 Pro).
A model’s context, or context window, refers to input data (e.g.
In a technical whitepaper, Anthropic admits that Claude 3 isn’t immune from the issues plaguing other GenAI models, namely bias and hallucinations (i.e.
Unlike some GenAI models, Claude 3 can’t search the web; the models can only answer questions using data from before August 2023.
Here’s the pricing breakdown:Opus: $15 per million input tokens, $75 per million output tokensSonnet: $3 per million input tokens, $15 per million output tokensHaiku: $0.25 per million input tokens, $1.25 per million output tokensSo that’s Claude 3.
Glean wants to beat ChatGPT at its own game — in the enterpriseGenAI has its issues.
Enter Glean, whose software connects to enterprise first- and third-party databases to field plain-English requests (e.g.
In 2019, Jain — along with a small founding team — built Glean as an AI-powered search app geared toward enterprise customers.
But Jain asserts that Glean is “secure” and “private” — at least to the extent a cloud-based GenAI platform can be.
“Glean [can recommend the] documents users might need for their day-to-day work by learning from past work patterns,” Jain said.

Autonomous vehicle company May Mobility has launched its first driverless on-demand microtransit service on public roads in Sun City, Arizona in partnership with transit tech company Via.
May’s strategy of integrating its autonomous microtransit service into existing public transit, in partnership with cities, has also laid the groundwork for future, more challenging deployments.
More recently, May launched an on-demand service in Grand Rapids, Michigan in partnership with Via.
Beep operates autonomous shuttles for resident transportation in the Lake Nona community in Florida and for public transportation in Peachtree Corners, Georgia.
Riders can book the on-demand ride-hail service through May Mobility’s app, available in Google Play and the Apple App Store.
