X AI has released their 314 billion parameter Mixture-of-Experts model, Grok-1, which is currently the largest language model that has been publicly released and could be used for a variety of tasks.
The European Parliament has passed a landmark AI act that bans certain AI applications and requires strict obligations for high-risk AI, positioning itself as the global standard for regulation.
The paper "MM1: Methods, Analysis & Insights from Multimodal LLM Pre-training" explores the importance of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLM) and how a careful mix of image-caption, interleaved image-text, and text-only data is crucial for achieving state-of-the-art few-shot results across multiple benchmarks.
The paper "Monitoring AI-Modified Content at Scale: A Case Study on the Impact of ChatGPT on AI Conference Peer Reviews" examines the impact of large language models on scientific peer review and suggests that LLM-generated text can affect the quality and fairness of peer review.
