Messaging your AI pricing model

stp2y0 CommentsAI

This article is based on Ismail Madni’s brilliant talk at the Product Marketing Summit in Austin, hosted by our sister community, Product Marketing Alliance. More and more AI capabilities are being added to product roadmaps every single day. Even companies that aren’t using true AI are still incorporating increasingly advanced capabilities into their product. This gives us all a golden opportunity to rethink how we price our offerings and the story behind that pricing – and that’s what I’m excited to talk to you about today.A brief history of software pricing modelsLet's start by taking a quick look at the history…

How Good Are the Latest Open LLMs? And Is DPO Better Than PPO?

stp2y0 CommentsAI

April 2024, what a month! My birthday, a new book release, spring is finally here, and four major open LLM releases: Mixtral, Meta AI's Llama 3, Microsoft's Phi-3, and Apple's OpenELM.This article reviews and discusses all four major transformer-based LLM model releases that have been happening in the last few weeks, followed by new research on reinforcement learning with human feedback methods for instruction finetuning using PPO and DPO algorithms.1. How Good are Mixtral, Llama 3, and Phi-3?2. OpenELM: An Efficient Language Model Family with Open-source Training and Inference Framework3. Is DPO Superior to PPO for LLM Alignment? A Comprehensive…

In July last year, OpenAI announced the formation of a new research team that would prepare for the advent of supersmart artificial intelligence capable of outwitting and overpowering its creators. Ilya Sutskever, OpenAI’s chief scientist and one of the company’s cofounders, was named as the colead of this new team. OpenAI said the team would receive 20 percent of its computing power.Now OpenAI’s “superalignment team” is no more, the company confirms. That comes after the departures of several researchers involved, Tuesday’s news that Sutskever was leaving the company, and the resignation of the team’s other colead. The group’s work will…

Building Generative AI prompt chaining workflows with human in the loop | Amazon Web Services

stp2y0 CommentsAI

Generative AI is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that can be used to create new content, including conversations, stories, images, videos, and music. Like all AI, generative AI works by using machine learning models—very large models that are pretrained on vast amounts of data called foundation models (FMs). FMs are trained on a broad spectrum of generalized and unlabeled data. They’re capable of performing a wide variety of general tasks with a high degree of accuracy based on input prompts. Large language models (LLMs) are one class of FMs. LLMs are specifically focused on language-based tasks such as summarization, text…

Modeling Extremely Large Images with xT

stp2y0 CommentsAIcomputer vision, global contexT, large images, long sequence

As computer vision researchers, we believe that every pixel can tell a story. However, there seems to be a writer’s block settling into the field when it comes to dealing with large images. Large images are no longer rare—the cameras we carry in our pockets and those orbiting our planet snap pictures so big and detailed that they stretch our current best models and hardware to their breaking points when handling them. Generally, we face a quadratic increase in memory usage as a function of image size. Today, we make one of two sub-optimal choices when handling large images: down-sampling…
