☆ The world's most-powerful AI model suddenly got 'lazier' and 'dumber.' A radical redesign of OpenAI's GPT-4 could be behind the decline in performance.

Lately, the giant AI model has become faster, but performance has declined. The world's most-powerful AI model has become, well, less powerful. It's considered the most-powerful AI model available broadly and is multimodal, which means it can understand images as well as text inputs. They think OpenAI is creating several smaller GPT-4 models that act similarly to the large model but are less expensive to run. This week, several AI experts posted what they claimed were details of GPT-4's architecture on Twitter.

☆ Elon Musk is moving forward with a new generative AI project at Twitter after purchasing thousands of GPUs
  + stars: | 2023-04-11 | by ( Kali Hays | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Tech companies typically use GPUs to work on large AI models, given the computational workload the newer technology requires. Musk, however, has criticized the recent development of generative AI, saying the technology is powerful and needs regulation to make sure it's operating within "the public interest." It's unclear exactly what Twitter will use generative AI for, the people familiar said. Generative AI has the capability, if trained for the use, to create new advertising images and text to target specific audiences. Nvidia, which is estimated to have 95% of the market, manufactures a GPU for large AI models that costs $10,000.

Self-driving-car developer George Hotz tweeted last month he was starting a Twitter internship. Hotz tweeted a poll on Monday, asking if he should "step down as a Twitter intern?" After Musk's November email asking Twitter employees to commit to an "extremely hardcore" work culture, Hotz tweeted that "is the attitude that builds incredible things. In the Twitter Space with Musk, Hotz said he removed the login popup "entirely," but that it was added back by other engineers who "messed up." While at Twitter, Hotz was critical of Twitter's brief policy of banning links to accounts on other social media platforms.

Elon Musk said Twitter is like "a plane headed towards the ground" in a Twitter Space on Tuesday. He explained that he had cut costs because Twitter had a predicted negative cash flow of $3 billion next year. The company, Musk said, is set to make around $3 billion in revenue in 2023, with net cash outflows of around $6.5 billion. That debt has annual servicing costs of around $1.5 billion, Musk said. During the Twitter Space, Musk also spoke about his meetings with advertisers, explaining that they asked "hard questions" about their return on investment because of the declining macroeconomic situation.
