🌳 Stanford takes Facebook's lab leak 'LLaMa' weights and uses them to make a GPT3-like model… for $600
Instruction-following models such as GPT-3.5 (text-davinci-003), ChatGPT, Claude, and Bing Chat have become increasingly powerful. Many users now interact with these models regularly and even use them for work.
However, despite their widespread deployment, instruction-following models still have many deficiencies: they can generate false information, propagate social stereotypes, and produce toxic language.
💦 Meta’s powerful AI language model has leaked online
Soon after Meta started accepting applications for developer access to LLaMA, a family of trained large language models, a user on the social network 4chan posted a downloadable BitTorrent link to the entire package,
Meta’s LLaMA model was created to help researchers but leaked on 4chan a week after it was announced. Some worry the technology will be used for harm; others say greater access will improve AI safety.
🏥 Parkinson's Freezing of Gait Prediction
The goal of this competition is to detect freezing of gait (FOG), a debilitating symptom that afflicts many people with Parkinson’s disease. You will develop a machine learning model trained on data collected from a wearable 3D lower back sensor.

✂ Microsoft Cuts Ethics Squad
Microsoft laid off an AI ethics team while charging ahead on products powered by OpenAI.
On March 6, the tech giant dissolved the Ethics & Society unit in its Cognition group, which researches and builds AI services, amid ongoing cutbacks that have affected 10,000 workers to date.
