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.
Artificial intelligence chip company Cerebras Systems announced on Thursday a partnership with French open-source AI technology firm Mistral, assisting the latter in setting a new speed record. Mistral aims to compete with open-source rivals like Meta and China's DeepSeek, which shook the global market last month with their low-cost and high-performance technologies. All three companies are in competition with OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT.
Recently, OpenAI made significant updates after launching its flagship AI models o3 and o3-mini, altering the way o3-mini responds. Now, this model not only answers users' questions but also showcases its thought process, providing greater transparency to users. This change marks an important step for OpenAI in enhancing user experience, making the use of AI tools more human-centered. The updated o3-mini, especially in 'high reasoning' mode.
