Before the holidays, I spent much of December reporting and updating our Org Charts for OpenAI, Anthropic and Cohere, all of which are now live. This week, we took a step back to examine the backgrounds of the leadership at the three artificial intelligence powerhouses. Sifting through the work histories of each company’s staff, one employer popped up over and over again: Google. We’ve written previously about how OpenAI alumni are building their own AI startups (the list includes Anthropic co-founders Dari

I had a morning recently that, on paper, should have been a good one. Clear calendar, a piece due, coffee made, sun in the kitchen. By lunchtime I had answered messages, tidied my desktop, reorganized a folder, and written almost nothing. I had been “busy the entire time. I had also, somehow, produced nothing that ...

A pair of Wharton researchers have put a name to something that many AI users have quietly started doing: letting chatbots make their decisions for them. Steven Shaw and Gideon Nave published a study in January titled “Thinking, Fast, Slow, and Artificial,” in which they introduced the term “cognitive surrender” to describe the tendency of […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

Если вы строили RAG в 2023, ваш стек выглядел плюс-минус одинаково. BERT-семейство (BGE, e5) для семантики, BM25 для буквальных совпадений, cross-encoder для реранкинга, какой-нибудь Qdrant сверху. Этим жили два года, и многие до сих пор так живут.Но если посмотреть, кто реально гоняется в продакшене у команд, которые ушли вперёд, ландшафт другой. Энкодеров там почти нет. Эмбеддит файнтюненная LLM. Реранкер — тоже LLM. Инференс на SGLang, а не на ONNX. И... Read more ›

Я часто вижу в комментариях выражения, типа "ИИ не заменит программиста, потому что ИИ выдаёт недетерминированный результат". Но ведь и человек не выдаёт детерминированный результат. Много ли вы знаете людей, которые могут написать программу на тысячу с лишним строк, а затем повторить её байт в байт? Ладно, согласен - это возможно. Ну а на 10 тысяч?Из опыта общения с ИИ могу сказать, что ИИ более детерминирован в своём поведении, чем... Read more ›

Знаменитый в своё время и крайне плодовитый французский автор Альбер Робида оставил после себя несколько книг и тысячи рисунков — в том числе множество иллюстраций к своей пародии на Жюля Верна под названием «XX век». Именно эти ироничные картинки в очень характерном стиле породили эстетику того, что теперь мы зовём стимпанком — только тогда это был не ретро-, а просто футуризм. Что более удивительно, в «XX веке», писавшемся в 1880-е... Read more ›

The Information
In early April, a staffer for Sam Liccardo, a freshman congressman representing the heart of Silicon Valley, got a call from a reporter telling them he was about to receive an endorsement—from Leading the Future, the $125 million political action committee funded by Andreessen Horowitz, OpenAI President Greg Brockman and Palantir billionaire Joe Lonsdale. It was the first Liccardo and his team had heard about the support. Under normal circumstances,... Read more ›

Anthropic and OpenAI have some pressing reasons to go public. But they have already relieved some of the pressure that typically pushes companies toward initial public offerings: employees anxious to cash out their equity. The two AI model companies have allowed early employees and investors to sell a combined $14 billion in shares over the last five years, according to The Information’s estimates. More employee sales of private shares are... Read more ›
