Twelve Labs raised $50m in Series A funding co-led by NEA and NVIDIA's NVentures to advance multimodal AI. Livekit secured $22m in funding. Groq announced running at 800k tokens/second. OpenAI saw a resignation from Daniel Kokotajlo. Twitter users highlighted Gemini 1.5 FlashModel for high performance at low cost and Gemini Pro ranking #2 in Japanese language tasks. Mixtral models can run up to 8x faster on NVIDIA RTX GPUs using TensorRT-LLM. Mamba-2 model architecture introduces state space duality for larger states and faster training, outperforming previous models. Phi-3 Medium (14B) and Small (7B) models benchmark near GPT-3.5-Turbo-0613 and Llama 3 8B. Prompt engineering is emphasized for unlocking LLM capabilities. Data quality is critical for model performance, with upcoming masterclasses on data curation. Discussions on AI safety include a Frontier AI lab employee letter advocating whistleblower protections and debates on aligning AI to user intent versus broader humanity interests.
