Snowflake Arctic is a notable new foundation language model released under Apache 2.0, claiming superiority over Databricks in data warehouse AI applications and adopting a mixture-of-experts architecture inspired by DeepSeekMOE and DeepSpeedMOE. The model employs a 3-stage curriculum training strategy similar to the recent Phi-3 paper. In AI image and video generation, Nvidia introduced the Align Your Steps technique improving image quality at low step counts, while Stable Diffusion 3 and SD3 Turbo models were compared for prompt understanding and image quality. Adobe launched an AI video upscaling project enhancing blurry videos to HD, though with some high-resolution artifacts. Apple released open-source on-device language models with code and training logs, diverging from typical weight-only releases. The Llama-3-70b model ties for first place on the LMSYS leaderboard for English queries, and Phi-3 (4B params) outperforms GPT-3.5 Turbo in the banana logic benchmark. Fast inference and quantization of Llama 3 models were demonstrated on MacBook devices.
