Harvard and Columbia Release Open Dataset of 16 Million Protein Sequences, Solving the Private Data Issue for AlphaFold 2 Training!


Inceptive achieves the design and generation of new proteins and drugs through large-scale learning of biological software languages. Inceptive applies deep learning to drug design, enabling programmable and scalable new drug development. Inceptive CEO Jakob Uszkoreit highlights that insufficient allocation of LLM computing resources is a key factor in inefficiency.
The robotics research team at Google DeepMind recently released a robotics project called RT-2. This project took 7 months to develop and uses a large model for training. RT-2 has capabilities such as symbol understanding, reasoning, and human recognition, and can think and complete tasks based on human instructions. By combining the large model with the robot's operational capabilities, RT-2 can accomplish tasks that involve logical leaps, such as from 'extinct animals' to 'plastic dinosaurs'. The results of this project performed well in various sub - category tests, with performance up to three times that of the previous generation of robot models. This research result demonstrates the potential of large models in robotics research and is expected to drive the development of robots in the future.
Meta Intelligence OS is a startup founded by Bloomberg. It has developed a series of large models based on the open-source model RWKV and aims to become the Android in the era of large models. The RWKV model has superior performance and low cost in inference tasks, thus attracting customers from industries such as finance, law firms, and smart hardware. The business model of Meta Intelligence OS is model customization based on private data and internal AI Agent development. The company hopes to solve the problems of API call latency and data security by deploying large models on terminal devices. Currently, RWKV versions are available on Windows, Mac, and Linux computers, and Android and iOS versions are also in development. Meta Intelligence OS is raising funds and collaborating with chip companies and computing power platforms to create benchmark customers. Luo Xuan said that the decisive battlefield for large models is on hardware, and both terminal devices and the cloud require dedicated chips.
OpenAI has announced the launch of its latest AI agent "Operator", a tool designed to assist users in performing various tasks online. OpenAI stated in its blog that Operator is currently in a "research preview", initially available to ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the U.S., with a monthly fee of $200. The design concept of Operator is to utilize a model termed "computer usage agent", integrating the visual capabilities of GPT-4o and reinforcement learning.
In 2024, global mobile users spent an astonishing $1.27 billion on AI chatbots and art generation tools. This figure represents significant growth compared to the previous two years, with spending on chatbot applications reaching $1.07 billion, reflecting a strong demand and recognition for AI assistants. According to the latest market report, ChatGPT leads in both downloads and consumption in the AI-generated content (AIGC) application space, becoming the preferred choice for users. Following closely is Google's Gemini.
