I find it odd watching armchair critics rush to nitpick @MistralAI’s plans or obsess over whether they’re #1 on every leaderboard. Having a team with this level of conviction building frontier models

It is morally wrong for some of the billion and trillion dollar AI companies that we enabled and helped build over the last two decades to (1) enforce 6 and 12 month garden leaves on the scientists we

Meta published a paper that might end the transformer era. For the last seven years, every major AI, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, has been built on the exact same architecture. Transformer. But Transforme

I've been suspicious of the philosophers hired by Anthropic who specialize in AI ethics for similar reasons that I'm skeptical of those who went into 'bioethics': they form a closed subculture that de

Remember October 2022 when you doused Galactica with vitriol? Galactica was a 120b-parameter LLM-based system from Meta-FAIR designed to help scientist write papers. It was open sourced (link below).
