What feels like a lifetime ago now, nearly a year ago today, OpenAI triggered mainstream interest in Large language Models (LLMs) with the launch of their chatbot, ChatGPT. Successive Large…

Bigger isn’t always better. During Sam Altman’s keynote speech at OpenAI’s inaugural developer conference, he announced the release of a new model variant, GPT-4 Turbo. Among the new features revealed were a knowledge cut-off date of April 2023, and an increased context window size of 128k tokens or roughly 300…

A comprehensive standard framework for guiding responsible and trusted AI research, design, development and usage. In an era where Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing industries, sparking innovation, and changing the way we live, work, learn and think, the ethical aspects of its development, deployment and usage are becoming a critical…

How open source and open science will solve some of the most pressing issues with generative AI and act as a counter-balance against closed black-box models developed by big tech. The Open Source Movement Although open source as we know it today did not begin until around 1999 with the formation of the Open…
