Paris-based startup Mistral AI has secured an investment of €450 million, leading to a valuation of $2 billion. Their flagship LLM, Mistral 7B, is known for its ability to compress knowledge and facilitate deep reasoning with fewer parameters. This not only improves performance but also contributes to sustainability. Mistral AI's successful funding round reflects Europe's growing prominence in the global AI landscape.

Alex McFarland's wraps it up for Unite.ai: https://www.unite.ai/paris-based-startup-and-openai-competitor-mistral-ai-valued-at-2-billion/

Al di là dei suoi contenuti, l'approvazione dell'#AI #Act in #EU ha un significato sistemico:
il mercato deve essere regolato in funzione dei diritti civili

Il modo in cui le #Bigtech esercitano un potere gigantesco (tipo le evidenze dei processi antitrust contro #Google e #Amazon) mostra che i mercati neoliberisti non si autoregolano

Per questo ritenere che l'AI Act sia un freno è una visione ristretta e senza prospettiva

@dangillmor @egeltje This is how the Internet works. Companies spy on us as we use their products and services. Data brokers buy that surveillance

We use these services as if they are working on our behalf. In fact, they are double agents, also secretly working for corporate owners. We trust them, but they are not trustworthy. They're not friends; they're services.

It's going to be no different with #AI. And the result will be much worse, for two reasons.

Remember when "Don't be evil" was part of everything #Google did, and was even enshrined in their code of conduct?

Yeah... That went away in 2015. Now they can be as evil as they want. :P

@dangillmor @egeltje And near-term AIs will be controlled by corporations. Which will use them towards that profit-maximizing goal. They won't be our friends. At best, they'll be useful services. More likely, they'll spy on us and try to manipulate us.

This is nothing new. Surveillance is the business model of the Internet. Manipulation is the other business model of the Internet.
#AI

@dangillmor @egeltje it is the role of government to create trust in society. And therefore, it is their role to create an environment for trustworthy AI. And that means regulation. Not regulating AI, but regulating the organizations that control and use #AI.

Bezos is on record saying he gets asked all the time “what will change the most in 10 years?” that almost no one ever asks “What won’t change in 10 years?”, and the latter is more important.

Hypothesis: In the age of Augmented Pattern Synthesis, the opportunity to innovate is in anti-patterns.

There is no “artificial intelligence” without pattern recognition, and there is no pattern recognition without humans. AI is a semiotic Ponzi scheme that exploits the intellectual work of the most vulnerable to reinforce the control of the most powerful. #AI

It's still too hard to tell an AI what I want it to do. Especially in a multi-modal contextual kind of way. I think the next big things here are going to be stuff like, having an AI screen reader + whisper integrated voice interface so I can talk with the AI Agent about what we BOTH see on screen. Including an understanding of what was on screen but isnt now, what is up in the scroll buffer that we both remember.

An example is I've been coding with co-pilot a lot lately, but I really want to just speak to it, like I might someone sitting next to me who is looking at my screen over my shoulder. Even be able to point / annotate things on the screen (bonus points if its touch enabled) and highlight an area, and do things like "hey, why do I get that error? Is it related to sessions.go and that function we set the expiry of the token?" and have the AI be able to respond with helpful information, doing its OWN annotations on the screen (but not taking control).

So yeah, voice integration with a local AI agent that can see my screen, and an annotation layer over the screen with both have access to to draw on, highlight etc.

"Artificial text is a statistical mashup of human quotes. When we quote AI, we quote quotes. We quote a Bircher muesli of quotes, write over it, and then feed it back into the AI system. There our input gets rehashed again. The way it currently works, AI is more likely to reach lukewarm entropy than ice-cold super-intelligence."

I'm not arguing that it's not *useful*. It's very much so. So easy. And we humans are hardwired to be efficient with our energy.

It starts as a way to augment our work. But will slowly replace more and more of the effort (physical & mental).

And how do we feel about a slow creep toward relying on #AI to make every day decisions for us? What should I wear today? What should I make for dinner? What book should I read this week? Summarize this book for me so I don't have to read it.

It's a tool for creating right now. But what happens when it becomes a tool for decision making and brainstorming of all kinds?

Which employee should I hire? Should I approve this insurance application? Should this couple be approved for adoption? #LLM

A chat with my Dad inspired by his use of #ChatGPT to choose aesthetically pleasing wood combos, turned into an interesting thought exercise.

How much #AI assistance in art does it take for it to cross the line into being no longer a work of human creativity?

And do we place the same value (tangible & intangible) on #art created from the human mind, and art simulated by a #LLM? Do we care?
