Big Tech forms AI connectivity standard, excludes NVIDIA

Big Tech computing companies formed a consortium to define a new open standard for interconnecting AI accelerators. NVIDIA was not invited to be part of the group even though it is the largest supplier of AI GPUs by far. AI data centers need to move massive amounts of data with very low latency. High-bandwidth data processing on GPUs happens extremely fast, but the challenge is to transfer data within and between clusters of these AI accelerators within data centers. NVIDIA created NVLink, its proprietary high-speed interconnect specifically designed for communication between its GPUs. The problem is that NVLink is proprietary,

Google’s Gecko benchmark identifies best AI image generator

Google’s DeepMind released Gecko, a new benchmark for comprehensively evaluating AI text-to-image (T2I) models. Over the last two years, we’ve seen AI image generators like DALL-E and Midjourney become progressively better with each version release. However, deciding which of the underlying models these platforms use is best has been largely subjective and difficult to benchmark. To make a broad claim that one model is “better” than another isn’t so simple. Different models excel in various aspects of image generation. One may be good at text rendering while another may be better at object interaction. A key challenge that T2I models

Report: AI is advancing beyond humans, we need new benchmarks

Stanford University released its AI Index Report 2024 which noted that AI’s rapid advancement makes benchmark comparisons with humans increasingly less relevant. The annual report provides a comprehensive insight into the trends and state of AI developments. The report says that AI models are improving so fast now that the benchmarks we use to measure them are increasingly becoming irrelevant. A lot of industry benchmarks compare AI models to how good humans are at performing tasks. The Massive Multitask Language Understanding (MMLU) benchmark is a good example. It uses multiple-choice questions to evaluate LLMs across 57 subjects, including math, history,

OpenAI says Voice Engine might be too risky to release

OpenAI says it ran a small-scale test of its new voice cloning product Voice Engine with a few select partners. The results show promising applications for the tech, but safety concerns may keep it from being released. OpenAI says that Voice Engine can clone a human’s voice based on a single 15-second recording of their voice. The tool can then generate “natural-sounding speech that closely resembles the original speaker.” Once cloned, Voice Engine can turn text inputs into audible speech using “emotive and realistic voices.” The tool’s capability makes exciting applications possible but raises serious safety issues too. Promising use

Amazon takes $2.75 billion plunge into Anthropic

Amazon announced a colossal $2.75 billion investment in AI startup Anthropic. Anthropic’s Claude 3 Opus is officially the most powerful LLM on the planet, marginally usurping heavyweight GPT-4 on the LMSys leaderboard. Anthropic has received billions in funding from numerous sources, including Amazon and Google, becoming the chief rival to  OpenAI.   Amazon is now shoveling coal in Anthropic with a new influx of funds, adding to the company’s previous $1.25 billion investment. This brings its total commitment to a staggering $4 billion. This deal, valued based on Anthropic’s last $18.4 billion valuation, is one of the biggest bets of the
