Ideogram returns with a new image generation model featuring color palette control, a fully controllable API, and an iOS app, reaching a milestone of 1 billion images created. Meanwhile, Midjourney released a Web UI but still lacks an API. In function calling, the Berkeley Function Calling Leaderboard (BFCL) updated to BFCL V2 • Live, adding 2251 live, user-contributed function documentation and queries to improve evaluation quality. GPT-4 leads the leaderboard, but the open-source Functionary Llama 3-70B finetune from Kai surpasses Claude. On AI model releases, Microsoft launched three Phi-3.5 models with impressive reasoning and context window capabilities, while Meta AI FAIR introduced UniBench, a unified benchmark suite for over 50 vision-language model tasks. Baseten improved Llama 3 inference speed by up to 122% using Medusa. A new cybersecurity benchmark, Cyberbench, featuring 40 CTF tasks, was released. Additionally, Codegen was introduced as a tool for programmatic codebase analysis and AI-assisted development. "Multiple functions > parallel functions" was highlighted as a key insight in function calling.

The upcoming AI Engineer World's Fair in San Francisco from June 25-27 will feature a significantly expanded format with booths, talks, and workshops from top model labs like OpenAI, DeepMind, Anthropic, Mistral, Cohere, HuggingFace, and Character.ai. It includes participation from Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, Google Vertex, and major companies such as Nvidia, Salesforce, Mastercard, Palo Alto Networks, and more. The event covers 9 tracks including RAG, multimodality, evals/ops, open models, code generation, GPUs, agents, AI in Fortune 500, and a new AI leadership track. Additionally, Anthropic shared interpretability research on Claude 3 Sonnet, revealing millions of interpretable features that can be steered to modify model behavior, including safety-relevant features related to bias and unsafe content, though more research is needed for practical applications. The event offers a discount code for AI News readers.
Jamba: Mixture of Architectures dethrones Mixtral

AI21 labs released Jamba, a 52B parameter MoE model with 256K context length and open weights under Apache 2.0 license, optimized for single A100 GPU performance. It features a unique blocks-and-layers architecture combining transformer and MoE layers, competing with models like Mixtral. Meanwhile, Databricks introduced DBRX, a 36B active parameter MoE model trained on 12T tokens, noted as a new standard for open LLMs. In image generation, advancements include Animatediff for video-quality image generation and FastSD CPU v1.0.0 beta 28 enabling ultra-fast image generation on CPUs. Other innovations involve style-content separation using B-LoRA and improvements in high-resolution image upscaling with SUPIR.
