I’ve got my stuff rigged to hit mixtral-8x7, and dolphin locally, and 3.5-turbo, and the 4-series preview all with easy comparison in emacs and stuff, and in fairness the 4.5-preview is starting to show some edge on 8x7 that had been a toss-up even two weeks ago. I’m still on the mistral-medium waiting list. Until I realized Perplexity will give you a decent amount of Mistral Medium for free through their partnership…

Not sure what all the fuss is about about the incomprehensibility of this. It's a densely packed comment, information wise, and expects familiarity with the field, but there's nothing really that obscure about it.

I might not know half of the references like "sama" or "TheBloke", but I could understand the context of them all. Like:

"the lag between some new edge and TheBloke having it quantized for a Mac Mini or 4070 Super,"

Not sure who TheBloke is, but he obviously means "between some new (cutting) edge AI model, and some person scaling it to run on smaller computers with less memory".

Similarly, not sure who Perplexity is, but "Until I realized Perplexity will give you a decent amount of Mistral Medium for free through their partnership" basically spells out that they're a service provider of some kind, that they have partnered with Mistral AI, and you get to use the Mistral Medium model through opening a free account on Perplexity.

I mean, duh!

You keep using this word "incel". I don't think it means what you think it means. This is a classical joke about how nerds don't get romance/dating. People have been doing that since the time of Goethe. Not something about bitter men who can't get laid and hate on women for it (which would be the incel case).

Here's a glossary to understand this post: - mixtral-8x7 or 8x7: Open source model by Mistral AI. - Dolphin: An uncensored version of the mistral model - 3.5-turbo: GPT-3.5 Turbo, the cheapest API from OpenAI - 4-series preview OR "4.5 preview": GPT-4 Turbo, the most capable API from OpenAI - mistral-medium: A new model by Mistral AI that they are only serving through AI. It's in private beta and there's a waiting li…

I asked ChatGPT to rewrite the original post using your glossary, which worked well:

I've set up my system to use several AI models: the open-source Mixtral-8x7, Dolphin (an uncensored version of Mixtral), GPT-3.5 Turbo (a cost-effective option from OpenAI), and the latest GPT-4 Turbo from OpenAI. I can easily compare their performances in Emacs. Lately, I've noticed that GPT-4 Turbo is starting to outperform Mixtral-8x7, which wasn't the case until recently. However, I'm still waiting for access to Mistral-Medium, a new, more exclusive AI model by Mistral AI.

I just found out that Perplexity, a new search engine competing with Google, is offering free access to Mistral Medium through their partnership. This makes me question Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, and his claims about their technology. Mistral Medium seems superior to GPT-4 Turbo, and if it were expensive to run, Perplexity wouldn't be giving it away.

I'm guessing that Mistral AI could become the next Renaissance Technologies (a hedge fund known for its innovative strategies) of the AI world. Techniques like Direct Preference Optimization, which improves smaller models, along with other advancements like the Alibi Python library for understanding AI models, sliding windows for longer text sequences, and combining multiple models, are now well understood. The real opportunity lies in quickly adapting these new technologies before they become mainstream and affordable.

Big companies are cautious about adopting these new structures, remembering their dependence on Microsoft in the past. They're willing to experiment with AI until it becomes both affordable and easy to use in-house.

It's sad to see the old technology go, but exciting to see the new advancements take its place.

Could a moderator change the "Teams" in the title to lowercase (as it is in the article)? Capitalizing Teams misleadingly implies it's regarding Microsoft's chat platform.

Or maybe you are spreading the anti ai ai club movement > https://twitter.com/daniel_nguyenx/status/174508587502795617... :D

j/k but finding it pretty funny these days that more and more people are switching to lowercase, assuming it started from this @sama tweet: https://twitter.com/sama/status/1735123080564167048

I just spoke all night to 8x7B and can say that it sucks much less than 3.5. It doesn’t screw up and apologize all the time (and screw up again) and doesn’t repeat what I just said verbatim. That is on topics I have a decent expertise in myself. Never had this experience of periodically forgetting that it’s not a human company with 3.5.

How are you accessing it?

You can access it through Poe.com.

Did you just paste that into an LLM and asked it to create a glossary? :-P (but seriously: Thanks !)

Emil didn't, but I did (and yeah, it's useless): Mixtral-8x7: This appears to be a technical term, possibly referring to a software, framework, or technology. Its exact nature is unclear without additional context. Dolphin locally: "Dolphin" could refer to a software tool or framework. The term "locally" implies it is being run on a local machine or server rather than a remote or cloud-based environment. 3.5-turbo: T…

This is actually hilarious. It looks like a student who did not learn for the exam but still tries their best to scratch a point or two by filling the page with as many reasonnable sounding statements (a.k.a. "bullshit") as they can. Not that I expect more of a language model, no matter how "large".

Maybe in the AI Twittersphere it started with sama, but it’s been becoming common in Gen Z culture for a few years now. If you look up popular bands at the moment, you’ll find a decent chunk of them only use lowercase in their band and song names.

It is a weird trend.
