In the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI), the rise of generative AI models has ushered in a new era of personalized and intelligent experiences. Organizations are increasingly using the power of these language models to drive innovation and enhance their services, from natural language processing to content generation and beyond. Using generative AI models in the enterprise environment, however, requires taming their intrinsic power and enhancing their skills to address specific customer needs. In cases where an out-of-the-box model is missing knowledge of domain- or organization-specific terminologies, a custom fine-tuned model, also called a domain-specific large language model…

COLORADO SPRINGS – Planet unveiled a platform April 9 that merges Earth-observation datasets with Sentinel Hub cloud-based analytics and tools. The Planet Insights Platform is designed to help government and commercial customers rapidly analyze, stream and distribute data. “This breaks down the conventional barriers to leveraging the power of Earth-observation data while laying the foundation for future cutting-edge capabilities that make it easier for our partners to build solutions and our customers to get the answers they need,” Troy Toman, Planet senior vice president of product and software engineering, said in a statement. Planet gained Sentinel hub in 2023, when…

Can Scale Become the ‘Data Foundry’ for AI?

stp2y0 CommentsViral News
(DedMityay/Shutterstock) Scale AI, which provides data labeling and annotation software and services to organizations like OpenAI, Meta, and the Department of Defense, this week announced a $1-billion funding round at a valuation of nearly $14 billion, putting it in a prime position to capitalize on the generative AI revolution. Alexandr Wang founded Scale AI back in 2016 to provide labeled and annotated data, primarily for autonomous driving systems. At the time, self-driving vehicles seemed to be just around the corner, but getting the vehicles on the road in a safe manner has proven to be a tougher problem than originally…

On the Utility of Conformal Prediction Intervals • David Stutz

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI
This article is meant as an ad-hoc response to Ben Recht’s recent blog series on whether we need conformal prediction intervals. I have been thinking a lot about the use of conformal prediction myself and this seems like a good opportunity to share some thoughts and learnings from working on conformal prediction the past few years. Ben Recht recently published some blog articles questioning the utility of prediction intervals and sets, especially as obtained using distribution-free, conformal methods. In this article, I want to add some color to the discussion given my experience with applying these methods in various settings.…

Llama 3: A Watershed AI moment? I reckon that the release of Llama 3 is perhaps one of the most important moments in AI development so far. The Llama 3 stable is already giving birth to all sorts of amazing animals and model derivatives. You can expect Llama 3 will unleash the mother of all battles against closed AI models like GPT-4.Meta AI just posted: ”Our largest Llama 3 models are over 400B parameters. And they are still being trained.” The upcoming Llama-400B will change the playing field for many independent researchers, little AI startups, one-man AI developers, and also…

ChatGPT’s use of a soundalike Scarlett Johansson reflects a troubling history of gender-stereotyping in technology

stp2y0 CommentsChat-GPT
Actress Scarlett Johansson released a statement this week expressing anger and concern that OpenAI used a voice “eerily similar” to her own as a default voice for ChatGPT. The voice in question, called Sky, has been available to users since September 2023, but the resemblance to Johansson’s voice became clearer last week when OpenAI demoed an updated model called GPT-4o. Johansson claims that OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman previously asked her if she would provide her voice for ChatGPT, and she had declined the invitation. The warm and playful tone of Sky’s voice bears a striking resemblance to the digital companion…
