Luma AI has introduced “Dream Machine”, a new AI system for video generation. Unlike similar systems such as those from OpenAI (“Sora”), Dream Machine is available for free for everyone to use. Users can create 5-second video clips simply by entering text. However, the quality of the results is not always convincing. The startup itself …
Anthropic’s new language model Claude 3.5 Sonnet is causing a stir in the AI community. It reportedly outperforms previous models such as GPT-4 in benchmark tests and impresses users with its performance. It can handle complex tasks such as game or web development. Despite weaknesses in simple cognitive tasks, Claude 3.5 Sonnet shows the pace …
Imagine you have a universal toolbox that contains many different tools, but is too large and cumbersome for certain tasks. To perform certain tasks efficiently, you can use small, specialized attachments called adapters. These adapters attach to the general-purpose tool and extend its function. For example, you can attach a screwdriver adapter to a drill …
Large Language Models (LLMs) are no longer trained solely on data from the Internet. In the past, LLMs were based on the vast data pool of the Internet, but this approach has reached its limits. To advance LLMs, companies like OpenAI are turning to new types of data: targeted annotation and filtering improve the quality …
