📰 The latest AI News stories (as a 2 min read) 

OpenAI's Strategic Investment in Brain-Like Chips

  • OpenAI and Rain Neuromorphics Partnership: OpenAI has signed a $51 million deal with Rain Neuromorphics for neuromorphic processing units (NPUs) that emulate human brain features. These NPUs could potentially provide 100 times more computing power and 10,000 times greater energy efficiency for AI training than current GPUs​​.

  • The Deal's Complexities and Government Scrutiny: This transaction has attracted government attention due to potential national security risks and the involvement of foreign investors. The US government closely monitors the deal, especially considering the involvement of Prosperity7 Ventures, a Saudi-based investor in Rain​​.

  • The Role of NPUs in AI Development: Rain's NPUs, using open source RISC-V architecture, represent a significant advancement in AI hardware. However, NPUs, while efficient for specific tasks, are unlikely to replace GPUs in the near future due to GPUs' superior performance in more demanding AI applications

Meta's SeamlessM4T: Revolutionizing AI Translation

  • SeamlessM4T v2: A Multitask Model: Meta's SeamlessM4T v2 is a foundational multilingual and multitask model with a non-autoregressive text-to-unit decoder, trained on 4.5 million hours of speech data. It's designed to handle more data for low resource languages​​.

  • Innovations in SeamlessM4T: The model uniquely maintains both vocal style and prosody in translation, a challenging feat in streaming models. It includes an expressivity encoder and an expressive unit-to-speech generator for seamless transfer of tones and emotional expression​​​​.

  • Advancements in Translation Safety and Authenticity: Meta has developed methods to reduce hallucinated toxicity in translation outputs and has introduced audio watermarking in its models for enhanced safety and auditability​

Google's Gemini AI Launch Delayed to 2024

  • Launch Postponement: Google's much-anticipated Gemini AI, initially announced at I/O 2023, has its launch pushed to 2024.

  • Competitive Landscape: Gemini AI is poised to be a significant competitor to OpenAI's GPT-4 in the AI market.
