SambaNova Systems has unveiled a groundbreaking feat with the introduction of the Samba-1, a massive one trillion parameter large language model (LLM) that integrates over 50 high-quality AI models. Unlike single models like OpenAI’s GPT-4, Samba-1 adopts a Composition of Experts architecture, allowing for customization to suit specific enterprise needs. While Samba-1 is a […]
Salesforce led the ProGen project to design proteins using generative AI, aiming to revolutionize medical treatment discovery. While the project initially made waves with successful proof-of-concept research, it faded into obscurity post-publication. Recently, former ProGen researcher Ali Madani founded Profluent, a startup focused on commercializing AI-designed proteins for pharmaceutical use. Madani’s vision for Profluent […]
Microsoft has discovered a winning formula to help users develop an AI habit that can streamline their everyday workflow. According to their research involving 1,300 Copilot for Microsoft 365 users across various industries, they found that users begin to derive value from AI when it saves them a mere 11 minutes a day – a […]
A report commissioned by the U.S. government and published recently highlights urgent national security risks posed by advanced artificial intelligence (AI) development. The report warns of potential global security destabilization comparable to the introduction of nuclear weapons, emphasizing the looming risks associated with AGI (artificial general intelligence) technology. The authors, who consulted various AI experts […]
Adobe introduced its innovative GenStudio application at the ongoing Adobe Summit to empower enterprises and brands in creating generative AI assets for campaigns. This new application ensures more user control with its unique “Structure reference” feature, allowing users to upload an image to guide subsequent image generations in terms of arrangement rather than style or […]
