The hidden links between a giant of investigative journalism (e.g. @derspiegel) and the US government. 🚨 mediapart.fr/en/journal/inte…
AI can predict public opinion by modeling the media diets of population subgroups. By fine-tuning language models like BERT on news & media consumed by specific groups, researchers could accurately predict their survey responses on issues like COVID-19.

I'm gone for 12 hours and OpenAI just tossed the whole world upside down again 🤯
Even though I'm keeping up with all the Generative AI progress, Sora is such a big jump in video generation capabilities that it feels unreal.
Time for a mega thread 🔽
Example of LLM coupled with action: 'Coscientist,' a GPT-4 powered AI for autonomous chemical research. It merges internet search, coding, and automation to expedite experiments, like reaction optimization

AI (ChatGPT, DALL-E) has lower CO2 emissions than humans in writing/illustrating. ChatGPT emits 1100x less CO2 per text page than a US resident, DALL-E 2500x less. Intriguing insight into AI's environmental impact. arxiv.org/abs/2303.06219
Prompt engineering vs. model fine-tuning: A new study reveals GPT-4 outperforms specialized models like BioGPT & Med-PaLM in medical benchmarks using clever prompting. Shows the power of 'generic' models with the right prompts.

Very technical & impressive visualization and explanation of how large language models compute their answers.
Worth clicking through the overview (using nano-gpt), which by itself is already impressive, & then on GPT-3 to see the difference in scale.

Separating quantum computing hype from reality is tough. Prof. Juliane Krämer, a cryptography expert, estimates 20-50 years for significant practical application. Big physics challenges remain (source in German)

Commonwealth Bank of Australia explores generative AI for 'synthetic customers' to test new products. Sparse on details. My guess: defining customer groups, detailing them, then asking an AI their take on new offerings.

I had so much fun preparing this talk. Per request, here are the slides: huyenchip.com/2023/06/07/gen…
The idea came from many conversations I’ve had recently with friends who need to figure out their generative AI strategy. I’d love to hear about your experience through this process.
An overview on how language models are used in practice today: "there was consensus that LLM APIs will remain a key pillar, followed in popularity by retrieval mechanisms and development frameworks like LangChain."

Cory Doctorow has a point: The misguided AI doomerism serves to distract regulation efforts and to inflate business models.
I think he underestimates the capabilities of generative AI, but his main argument holds.

The "Statement on AI Risk" is seriously misguided in my view. We face many risks. The most serious due to IT is unwanted nuclear warfare due to minimal reaction time
