The big game is going to be powering inference, not training. The success of open models makes that a bigger opportunity - but either way NVIDIA and competitors will be fighting for inference as AI agents explode.

Good article about the visibility of risks from AI. Regulation that requires large companies to be subject to risk audits would be a great step forward - in general transparency and independent review are important but for the most advanced tech, better not in public. (1/2)
1. Microsoft’s new Bing chatbot shows how right Sam Altman (CEO of OpenAI) was when he said:
“AI will probably most likely lead to the end of the world, but in the meantime, there'll be great companies.”

This is a well-written thoughtful commentary. Regulating the biggest most capital intensive frontier AI based on compute usage is the right approach and I agree with the authors that it will enable innovation.

Impressive the extent of training - 730 GPU years for the 70B model and assuming the same dataset 2300 GPU years for the 400B model. They used two 24k GPU clusters (capital cost ~$750M ea)- a single training run on the 400B model would take over a month on one of the clusters.

We can’t afford recommendation algorithms that amplify damaging misinformation.

The important implication here is open models for the community requires open access to data. Whereas increasingly we're seeing datasets held behind paywalls by social media aggregators (who did NOT create it!) and limiting access so only monopolists can train effective models.
