This is a model that was trained on 176 billion parameters&hellip; making it on par with what OpenAI, Meta, and Google have developed. They call it Bloom.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">What&rsquo;s more, BigScience designed Bloom such that it supports 46 different languages and 13 programming languages. That means the AI can speak all the world&rsquo;s top languages. And it can even write software code in the world&rsquo;s top programming languages.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">And like the big-tech models, Bloom can also write stories, develop instruction manuals, summarize long articles, and write customized computer programs.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">My team and I had some fun testing Bloom out. To start with, we asked Bloom to generate text based on a question: How should we think about artificial intelligence today?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Here was the answer:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\"><img src=\"https:\/\/ci5.googleusercontent.com\/proxy\/YnXk2HNoLt5j4HHYvtWEh7yIxpXXwGfd_PsGUGLOzZc7bVgWP2teJStV5ZITaK9cQfDSJpHxYOB2J5NJE_lh3pf1F01O97JNcqLkIKc_ciwvtO8RoWJxvIJbLw=s0-d-e1-ft#https:\/\/cdn.brownstoneresearch.com\/TBE\/images\/202207\/20220720-TBE-04.png\" style=\"width:560px\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">We also asked Bloom to help us translate English to Japanese. Here it is in action:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\"><img src=\"https:\/\/ci4.googleusercontent.com\/proxy\/Q_YTn6WSXCNUisF8O0SRLzKrBvYEuPrg3Ue2mPa-NVvF6dXvlvgnGOfZarbEDmANpMpWe9Ji5RCbQ_unJCjRgrMj80rB_IbEq1HV7l06l__Aj-MCEuW_3XpXWw=s0-d-e1-ft#https:\/\/cdn.brownstoneresearch.com\/TBE\/images\/202207\/20220720-TBE-05.png\" style=\"width:560px\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">And here&rsquo;s the most impressive part &ndash; BigScience developed this model at a fraction of the cost. All it took was $7 million in grant money. With this funding, BigScience trained the AI for three months using 384 of NVIDIA&rsquo;s best GPUs.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">For comparison, other models likely cost tens of millions of dollars to develop.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">What we&rsquo;re witnessing is the complete democratization of AI. Anyone can put Bloom to work &ndash; either using their own computers or by renting computing power in the cloud.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">And here&rsquo;s the most incredible part &ndash; this comes just months after the big developments from OpenAI, Meta, and Google that we discussed.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">We&rsquo;ve never seen such rapid development cycles before. The open source community is able to essentially duplicate the technology of the world&rsquo;s most powerful and well-resourced companies, in a matter of months, for a fraction of the cost.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">And with the technology now out in the wild, we are inevitably going to see some amazing breakthroughs even in just the next 12 months.
