REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration/File PhotoJune 29 (Reuters) - Inflection AI, a startup backed by several Silicon Valley heavyweights, said on Thursday it had raised $1.3 billion from investors including Microsoft and Nvidia, amid a boom in the artificial intelligence (AI) sector. Inflection released its chatbot Pi last month. Pi uses generative AI technology, similar to ChatGPT, to interact with users through dialogues, allowing people to ask questions and share feedback. Palo Alto, California-based Inflection AI has about 35 employees. Nvidia (NVDA.O), which has stepped up its AI investments recently, Hoffman, Bill Gates and former Google CEO Eric Schmidt also participated in the latest round, Inflection said.

June 27 (Reuters) - Reka, an AI model startup founded by former researchers from Alphabet's DeepMind (GOOGL.O), has raised $50 million in a fresh round of funding from investors including Yuri Milner's DST Global Partners and Snowflake (SNOW.N), the companies told Reuters. Reka focuses on building large and specialized AI models for enterprise customers. Snowflake, which invested in the company, also announced a partnership to allow users to run third-party model providers like Reka within their Snowflake account. The partnerships came as Snowflake competitor Databricks acquired AI model training company MosacicML in a $1.3 billion deal on Monday. Yogatama said Reka has built both large models and proprietary model distillation technology to personalize models for specific use cases.

☆ DeepMind's co-founder suggested testing an AI chatbot's ability to turn $100,000 into $1 million to measure human-like intelligence

DeepMind's co-founder believes the Turing test is an outdated method to test AI intelligence. In his book, he suggests a new idea in which AI chatbots have to turn $100,000 into $1 million. A co-founder of Google's AI research lab DeepMind thinks AI chatbots like ChatGPT should be tested on their ability to turn $100,000 into $1 million in a "modern Turing test" that measures human-like intelligence. The Turing test was introduced by Alan Turing in the 1950s to examine whether a machine has human-level intelligence. During the test, human evaluators determine whether they're speaking to a human or a machine.

Airbnb co-founder and CEO Brian Chesky said AI will ultimately be a boon to the job market. He predicts AI will propel "millions of startups," even as jobs at existing companies could decrease. Chesky is one of many business leaders that has weighed in on AI this year. He anticipates that the technology will propel "millions of new startups," he told investor Jason Calacanis on a recent episode of This Week In Startups. While many in the business world have said AI could profoundly impact innovation and the economy, business leaders, including Warren Buffett, are skeptical.

☆ Meta releases 'human-like' AI image creation model

The model, I-JEPA, uses background knowledge about the world to fill in missing pieces of images, rather than looking only at nearby pixels like other generative AI models, the company said. Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, is a prolific publisher of open-sourced AI research via its in-house research lab. Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg has said that sharing models developed by Meta's researchers can help the company by spurring innovation, spotting safety gaps and lowering costs. Lecun, considered one of the "godfathers of AI," has railed against "AI doomerism" and argued in favor of building safety checks into AI systems. Meta is also starting to incorporate generative AI features into its consumer products, like ad tools that can create image backgrounds and an Instagram product that can modify user photos, both based on text prompts.

"Today's systems are not anywhere close to posing an existential risk," Yoshua Bengio, a professor at the Université de Montréal, told the publication. Marc Andreessen spoke even more strongly in a blog post last week in which he warned against "full-blown moral panic about AI" and described "AI risk doomers" as a "cult." "AI doesn't want, it doesn't have goals, it doesn't want to kill you, because it's not alive," he wrote.

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak speaks to the media during London Tech Week at the QEII centre on June 12, 2023. British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak made a big pitch to the tech community Monday, casting the U.K. as a global center for artificial intelligence and regulation of the technology. "I want to make the U.K. not just the intellectual home but the geographical home of global AI safety regulation," Sunak added. However, the U.K. is trying to make measures of its own to be more of a leader in the world of AI. The government in March published a white paper detailing its plan for AI regulation, which sought to take a principles-based approach to the technology rather than proposing new tailored regulations.

Other US generative AI startups including Adept, Inflection AI, Pinecone and Runway have all raised major rounds in the last few months. AI is minting unicorn-valued companies even in the tech downturnFunding into AI startups was down slightly for the full-year in 2022, matching a broader downturn in tech funding. And VC funding to generative AI startups specifically, many of which are very early-stage businesses, topped $1.7 billion in Q1 2023, per Pitchbook. "No one wants to invest in AI that's going to wipe out humanity," said AlbionVC's Grimm.

Apple CEO Tim Cook arrives for the season three premiere of "Ted Lasso" at the Regency Village Theater in Los Angeles, California, on March 7, 2023. Apple CEO Tim Cook said recently that he uses ChatGPT, the AI chatbot, and is excited about the tool's "unique applications." Cook added that large language models — the AI tools that power chatbots like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard — show "great promise" but also the potential for "things like bias, things like misinformation [and] maybe worse in some cases." The Apple CEO also offered his thoughts on regulation and guardrails, saying they're needed but that AI is powerful and the tech's development is moving quickly. "If you look down the road, then it's so powerful that companies have to employ their own ethical decisions," Cook said.

The generative AI industry is set to grow from $40 billion in 2022 to a $1.3 trillion market in 2032. The launch of OpenAI's chatbot ChatGPT in November fueled the hype around AI tools. Hardware, however, will make up the bulk of the $1.3 trillion of revenue, accounting for $641 billion by 2032, per Bloomberg's estimates. Hardware revenue will come from AI servers, AI storage, computer vision AI products, as well as conversational AI tools, which will be worth $108 billion. Digital ads pertaining to AI will make revenues of $192 billion, while AI assistant software will be worth $89 billion, per the report.
