HuggingGPT: Leveraging LLM to Solve Complex AI Tasks with a Hugging Face Model
A recent paper by researchers from Zhejiang University and Microsoft Research Asia explored the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) as controllers to manage existing community-available AI models such as Hugging Face. I’m here.
AWS Enters Generative AI Race with Bedrock and Titan Foundation Models
AWS announces its entry into the generative AI race with the launch of Amazon Bedrock and Titan foundational models. Amazon aims to democratize access to generative AI technology to accommodate customers across industries and use cases. This groundbreaking development positions Amazon as a formidable competitor in the rapidly growing AI market.
Additionally, AWS announced the general availability of Amazon EC2 Trn1n instances powered by AWS Trainium and Amazon EC2 Inf2 instances powered by AWS Inferentia2, the most cost-effective cloud infrastructure for generative AI.
Microsoft Open Sources Multimodal Chatbot Visual ChatGPT
Microsoft Research recently open sourced Visual ChatGPT, a chatbot system that can generate and manipulate images in response to human text prompts. The system combines OpenAI’s ChatGPT with 22 different Visual Foundation Models (VFMs) to support multimodal interaction.
Stability AI Announces First Product in StableLM Suite of Language Models
Stability AI has released a new open source language model, StableLM. Alpha versions of the models are available for 3 and 7 billion parameters, followed by 15 to 65 billion parameter models. The developer is free to inspect, use and adapt his StableLM base model for commercial or research purposes under the terms of the CC BY-SA-4.0 license.
