AI edits DNA, Microsoft's Phi3 runs on phone, Adobe's 8x video upsampler, & More!
Welcome to the AI Search newsletter. Here are the top updates in AI this week.
Moderna partners with OpenAI
Moderna announces a partnership with OpenAI, automating numerous business processes and expanding OpenAI's reach into the enterprise biotech sector. This collaboration will see 3,000 Moderna employees gaining access to ChatGPT Enterprise, powered by GPT-4, by the end of the week. By integrating AI further into its operations, Moderna aims to exceed its goal of introducing 15 new products within the next five years.
Rabbit R1 live demo & unboxing party at NYC
The Rabbit R1 AI device is finally available to a first batch of users. CEO Jesse Lyu performs a live demo of the device at the NYC unboxing event. See the highlights in the video above.
Microsoft Phi 3 Mini: The tiny model that runs on your phone
Phi-3-mini, a 3.8B language model, is now accessible on Microsoft Azure AI Studio, Hugging Face, and Ollama, offering two context-length variants and being the first model in its class to support a context window of up to 128K tokens without compromising quality. Despite its compact size, Phi-3-mini showcases impressive language understanding and reasoning abilities that rival much larger models like Mixtral 8x7B and GPT-3.5. The model's success can be attributed to its high-quality training data, chat-finetuning, and emphasis on safety and responsible AI principles.
Cramify

Simply upload your study guides and lecture notes, and Cramify transforms them into concise, easy-to-read notes. Summarize extensive materials into a personalized study guide ready in minutes. Additionally, Cramify offers interactive quizzes to test your understanding of the material, from basic concepts to complex applications. It provides tailored practice question sets that predict likely exam content for real exam preparation, ensuring you are fully prepared. This is the new way to cram - a shortcut to smart studying.
Adobe unveils 8x video upsampler
Adobe's VideoGigaGAN leverages artificial intelligence to enhance the sharpness and clarity of blurry videos. The team behind VideoGigaGAN developed a generative video super-resolution model that can improve videos by producing high-frequency details while maintaining temporal consistency. By comparing their method with TTVSR consistency and BasicVSR++, the team demonstrated that their approach results in temporally consistent videos with more fine-grained detail than previous methods.
Groundbreaking AI trained to edit DNA
AI is now able to create blueprints for tiny biological mechanisms that can edit human DNA, potentially revolutionizing the way illnesses and diseases are fought with greater precision and speed. The AI, developed by Profluent, analyzes massive amounts of biological data similar to how ChatGPT learns language generation from various texts. Utilizing CRISPR methods as a foundation, these gene editors offer a new level of flexibility and power beyond what has been seen in natural evolution.
uPix AI
uPix is an AI Selfie Generator that allows users to turn into anyone in just one click. Select from a vast array of templates, ranging from superheroes to business portraits, and even anime characters. The AI is fine-tuned to produce ultra-realistic, high-resolution photos.
Emulating neurodegeneration and aging in artificial intelligence
Recent research aimed to mimic the effects of aging and neurodegeneration in AI systems. By intentionally removing synapses and neurons from an AI model, the AI system first lost its ability for abstract thinking, followed by a decline in mathematical abilities, and ultimately a loss of linguistic skills. This pattern of 'neuro-erosion' in AI systems mirrors the neurodegeneration process observed in humans.
