Daily Digest #338

Hello folks, here’s what we have today (no summaries due to sickness, sorry);

PICKS

1. I spoke with Stripe, Google, Intercom, Zapier and others on how they encourage AI adoption for their teams⁸⁴. A ton of interesting insights and all fit into 9 ways you can do it too.

2. Open AI is building an early warning system for LLM-aided biological²⁹⁴ threat creation. Saving you a read—The results found small but non-significant increases in accuracy and completeness for participants who had access to GPT-4 compared to the internet only.

3. Mistral Confirms New Open Source AI Model⁴³³ Nearing GPT-4 Performance. Here’s what went down:

   • An anonymous user posted files on HuggingFace that comprised a new open-source large language model called "miqu-1-70b" which showed performance near GPT-4. 

   • Some speculated it was a new Mistral model being "leaked" by the company, as Mistral is known for dropping new models without announcement. 

   • Mistral's CEO later confirmed it was a quantized (number format changed) version of an old Mistral model that an enthusiastic employee had leaked. 

   • Mistral has made progress in training newer models since then and the CEO hinted they may match or exceed GPT-4 performance with future models.

4. Applications for AI Grant⁶¹⁰ Batch 3 are open - now with the option of a $250k uncapped note or $2.5M on a $25M cap

p.s. If we launched a course to teach you something about AI, what would you be most interested in learning?
