Intelligent Software, Smartphone Killer, Top LLMs
Greetings, fellow AI explorers! 👋 Welcome to another action-packed edition covering the latest earth-shaking developments in artificial intelligence. Grab some popcorn, and let's dive in.
Could AI transform computing into something unrecognizably intelligent? 🤖
Bill Gates makes a bold prediction - within five years, AI could power adaptive "agent" software that deeply understands users, communicating naturally to assist them like a close friend across diverse tasks.
Rather than making us toggle between disparate apps, agents would provide a unified, conversational interface drawing on comprehensive knowledge of our lives. This advancement could completely revolutionize computing, bringing unprecedented intelligence and personalization.
If agents deliver on their paradigm-shifting potential, we may look back at even today's most innovative software as primitive precursors. Computing could become an extension of ourselves rather than just a passive tool. But this immense power will require thoughtful oversight of privacy and ethics.

Pin this: AI wearable devices might free us from phone addiction! 📌 How?
After much anticipation, Humane has revealed full details on its pioneering $699 AI Pin. This screenless wearable provides hands-free access to AI through voice commands, gestures, and built-in projection.
Demoed features include ChatGPT and Microsoft model integration, messaging, summarization, translation, visual Q&A, and, remarkably, nutrition analysis via food images taken by the Pin's camera—humane aims to fundamentally reimagine human-AI interaction by freeing us from phone addiction (watch the demo👇 to be amazed).
As one of the first consumer AI wearables, this launch provides a glimpse into the mainstream integration of ambient computing. The Pin's camera-based applications around health and food also highlight AI's immense potential for personalized wellness.

Who is leading the fierce LLM race after ChatGPT's launch? 🏁
With hundreds now vying for pole position, supremacy in large language models remains up for grabs after ChatGPT ignited the generative AI frenzy. From scrappy startups to research giants, all push the boundaries of generative AI through unprecedented computing investments. The LLM race is still in its opening laps. But which are the most capable ones? To find out, follow this list of the best large language models in 2023.
| LLM | By | License | Access via | Worth Mentioning |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GPT-4 | OpenAI | Proprietary | ChatGPT Plus | - showcases skills that exhibit human-level performance, - first multimodal model that can accept both texts and images as input, - addresses hallucination and improved factuality by a mile |
| GPT-3.5 | OpenAI | Proprietary | ChatGPT | - incredibly fast model and generates a complete response within seconds, - hallucinates a lot and spews false information frequently |
| PaLM 2 | Proprietary | Bard | - a multilingual model and can understand idioms, riddles, and nuanced texts from different languages, - very quick to respond and offers three responses at once |
|
| Claude | Anthropic | Proprietary | Claude Chat | - can take close to 75,000 words in a single window as input |
| Falcon | TII, UAE | Open Source | Falcon Demo | - has outranked all the open-source models released so far, - can be used for commercial purposes |
| LLaMA | Meta | Open Source | On request | - has been released for research - Llama 2 is available under a permissive commercial license, whereas Llama 1 was limited to non-commercial use. |
That concludes this week's expanded AI updates! Join me next time as we continue surfing the exhilarating wave of artificial intelligence advancement. Who knows what world-changing innovations await around the corner ⁉️
