AI capabilities are growing faster than hardware: Can decentralisation close the gap?

AI News

The cost of the largest AI training runs is growing by a factor of two to three per year since 2016, and that puts billion-dollar price tags on the horizon by 2027, maybe sooner,” noted Epoch AI staff researcher, Ben Cottier. In my opinion, we’re already at this point.

CES 2025: AI Advancing at ‘Incredible Pace,’ NVIDIA CEO Says

NVIDIA

RTX Neural Shaders use small neural networks to improve textures, materials and lighting in real-time gameplay. RTX Neural Faces and RTX Hair advance real-time face and hair rendering, using generative AI to animate the most realistic digital characters ever. The new Project DIGITS takes this mission further.

Transformer Impact: Has Machine Translation Been Solved?

Unite.AI

Neural Machine Translation (NMT) In 2016, Google made the switch to Neural Machine Translation. Transformers rely only on the attention mechanism, – self-attention, which allows neural machine translation models to focus selectively on the most critical parts of input sequences.

The Sequence Opinion #499: Reinforcement Learning was Dying and then Gen AI Came Along

TheSequence

In 2016, DeepMind’s AlphaGo victory over a world champion in the complex board game Go stunned the world and raised expectations sky-high. AlphaGo’s success suggested that deep RL techniques, combined with powerful neural networks, could crack problems once thought unattainable.

Calibration Techniques in Deep Neural Networks

Heartbeat

Introduction Deep neural network classifiers have been shown to be mis-calibrated [1], i.e., their prediction probabilities are not reliable confidence estimates. For example, if a neural network classifies an image as a “dog” with probability p , p cannot be interpreted as the confidence of the network’s predicted class for the image.

Introducing Our New Punctuation Restoration and Truecasing Models

AssemblyAI

  Each stage leverages a deep neural network that operates as a sequence labeling problem but at different granularities: the first network operates at the token level and the second at the character level. Training Data : We trained this neural network on a total of 3.7 billion words).   Fig.
