Grok 3 has launched with mixed opinions but strong benchmark performance, notably outperforming models like Gemini 2 Pro and GPT-4o. The Grok-3 mini variant shows competitive and sometimes superior capabilities, especially in reasoning and coding, with reinforcement learning playing a key role. Mira Murati has publicly shared her post-OpenAI plan, founding the frontier lab Thinking Machines, focusing on collaborative, personalizable AI, multimodality, and empirical safety and alignment research, reminiscent of Anthropic's approach.
o3-mini launches, OpenAI on "wrong side of history"

OpenAI released o3-mini, a new reasoning model available for free and paid users with a "high" reasoning effort option that outperforms the earlier o1 model on STEM tasks and safety benchmarks, costing 93% less per token. Sam Altman acknowledged a shift in open source strategy and credited DeepSeek R1 for influencing assumptions. MistralAI launched Mistral Small 3 (24B), an open-weight model with competitive performance and low API costs. DeepSeek R1 is supported by Text-generation-inference v3.1.0 and available via ai-gradio and replicate. The news highlights advancements in reasoning, cost-efficiency, and safety in AI models.

Romain Huet demonstrated an unreleased version of GPT-4o on ChatGPT Desktop showcasing capabilities like low latency voice generation, whisper tone moderation, camera mode streaming video to GPT-4o, rapid OCR, screen sharing with ChatGPT for programming help, clipboard reading, and vision-based code conversation. OpenAI's four investment areas highlighted include textual intelligence, efficiency/cost, model customization, and multimodal agents. Google DeepMind released Gemma 2 models in 9B and 27B sizes trained on 8T and 13T tokens respectively, using SFT, distillation, RLHF, and model merging, optimized for TPUv5e with strong performance and safety measures. Meta AI announced the Meta LLM Compiler built on Meta Code Llama with enhanced code optimization and compiler features.

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.
Claude 3 just destroyed GPT 4 (see for yourself)

Claude 3 from Anthropic launches in three sizes: Haiku (small, unreleased), Sonnet (medium, default on claude.ai, AWS, and GCP), and Opus (large, on Claude Pro). Opus outperforms GPT-4 on key benchmarks like GPQA, impressing benchmark authors. All models support multimodality with advanced vision capabilities, including converting a 2-hour video into a blog post. Claude 3 offers improved alignment, fewer refusals, and extended context length up to 1 million tokens with near-perfect recall. Haiku is noted for speed and cost-efficiency, processing dense research papers in under three seconds. The models excel at following complex instructions and producing structured outputs like JSON. Safety improvements reduce refusal rates, though some criticism remains from experts. Claude 3 is trained on synthetic data and shows strong domain-specific evaluation results in finance, medicine, and philosophy.
