Introducing the Databricks AI Fund

stp2y0 CommentsViral News
We launched Databricks Ventures in December 2021 as our strategic investment arm for funding innovative startups across the data, analytics and AI landscape — companies that shared our view on the importance of open platforms and ecosystems. Since then, via the inaugural Lakehouse Fund, we’ve invested in more than 25 amazing companies that are building on or extending the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform. The result has been a stronger ecosystem, with our portfolio companies delivering best-in-class product experiences for our joint customers.Today, we’re excited to announce the Databricks AI Fund, the second fund at Databricks Ventures. Just as software ate…

AlphaFold 3 predicts the structure and interactions of all of life’s molecules

stp2y0 CommentsNews
Inside every plant, animal and human cell are billions of molecular machines. They’re made up of proteins, DNA and other molecules, but no single piece works on its own. Only by seeing how they interact together, across millions of types of combinations, can we start to truly understand life’s processes.In a paper published in Nature, we introduce AlphaFold 3, a revolutionary model that can predict the structure and interactions of all life’s molecules with unprecedented accuracy. For the interactions of proteins with other molecule types we see at least a 50% improvement compared with existing prediction methods, and for some…

Incorporate offline and online human – machine workflows into your generative AI applications on AWS | Amazon Web Services

stp2y0 CommentsAI
Recent advances in artificial intelligence have led to the emergence of generative AI that can produce human-like novel content such as images, text, and audio. These models are pre-trained on massive datasets and, to sometimes fine-tuned with smaller sets of more task specific data. An important aspect of developing effective generative AI application is Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF). RLHF is a technique that combines rewards and comparisons, with human feedback to pre-train or fine-tune a machine learning (ML) model. Using evaluations and critiques of its outputs, a generative model can continue to refine and improve its performance. The…

Join us in returning to NYC on June 5th to collaborate with executive leaders in exploring comprehensive methods for auditing AI models regarding bias, performance, and ethical compliance across diverse organizations. Find out how you can attend here. The era of the AI PC, or rather, the Copilot+ PC, has arrived. This week, Microsoft introduced its vision of what personal computing will look like in this artificial intelligence-filled world. “We’re entering this new era where computers not only understand us but can anticipate what we want and our intents,” chief executive Satya Nadella remarked while explaining the platform shift starts…

Cats purrfectly demonstrate what it takes to trust robots

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI
Would you trust a robot to look after your cat? New research suggests it takes more than a carefully designed robot to care for your cat, the environment in which they operate is also vital, as well as human interaction. Cat Royale is a unique collaboration between Computer Scientists from the University of Nottingham and artists at Blast Theory who worked together to create a multispecies world centred around a be-spoke enclosure in which three cats and a robot arm coexist for six hours a day during a twelve-day installation as part of an artist-led project. The installation was launched…

American Airlines has new attorneys after previous lawyers said a 9-year-old should have realized she was being recorded in the bathroom by a flight attendant.The airline is facing several lawsuits stemming from criminal charges against Estes Carter Thompson, a former flight attendant accused of filming underage girls by taping his phone to the bathroom toilet seat.Police arrested Thompson after a 14-year-old girl noticed a phone with its camera flashlight turned on in the bathroom on a flight from North Carolina to New York in September 2023, police say. He is facing federal charges of attempted sexual exploitation of children and…

stp2y0 CommentsChat-GPT
OpenAI has launched its new flagship model, GPT-4o, which seamlessly integrates text, audio, and visual inputs and outputs, promising to enhance the naturalness of machine interactions. GPT-4o, where the “o” stands for “omni,” is designed to cater to a broader spectrum of input and output modalities. “It accepts as input any combination of text, audio, and image and generates any combination of text, audio, and image outputs,” OpenAI announced. Users can expect a response time as quick as 232 milliseconds, mirroring human conversational speed, with an impressive average response time of 320 milliseconds. Pioneering capabilities The introduction of GPT-4o marks…

Presenting The First Forrester Report On AI Foundation Models For APAC

stp2y0 CommentsNews
Foundation models are the driving force behind the generative AI revolution. For most enterprises, now and in the coming years, acquiring foundation models from external providers will be the norm, rather than training their own from scratch. These models serve as critical elements in the larger AI framework, yet it’s important to recognize that not every foundation model is of the same caliber. In our previous global report, we introduced an evaluation framework on the capabilities that technology architecture and delivery practitioners should focus on, spanning technology, business, and ecosystem. Among these capabilities, model adaptation towards specific business needs and…
