Microsoft and Nvidia push the frontier with the latest models

Tech giants Nvidia and Microsoft aren’t just playing the GPU and cloud game when it comes to AI. Both companies are now stepping into the arena to unveil leaner and meaner models that pack a punch.

Microsoft unveiled Phi-3.5, which includes three new models:

• There’s the 42B parameter MoE-instruct for more complicated tasks, the 3.82B parameter mini-instruct for speed and efficiency, and a vision-instruct model that’s geared toward images and videos

• Each reach state-of-the-art performance across multiple benchmarks, rivaling Gemini 1.5 Flash and approaching OpenAI’s GPT-4o on certain tests

Nvidia showed off its new Mistral-NeMo-Minitron 8B model:

• It’s an update of the 12B version it released with Mistral AI last month

• In order to create a smaller model, Nvidia “pruned” out unnecessary model weights, then retrained the LLM with accuracy in mind

• Its tiny size makes it highly customizable for specific uses, like phone apps and customer service chatbots

Think small. These new models manage to boost speed and efficiency without sacrificing accuracy — Nvidia’s 8B model is reportedly just as precise as its bigger 12B sibling, but with up to 40x less compute cost. As AI companies grapple with energy consumption and costs, these compact form factors could soon become just as important as model capabilities.

FROM THE FRONTIER

OpenAI will now let developers tweak GPT-4o

While software engineers at big tech firms have access to the latest and greatest models, independent developers often have to work with watered-down, open-source alternatives. That’s no longer the case — as OpenAI just announced it’s opening up access to GPT-4o. 

With fine-tuning, engineers can push models to their limits and tweak them to match their needs, boosting accuracy and efficiency. Customized versions of GPT-4o — for example, ones that specialize in math or coding — could soon top industry benchmarks and set new records. To celebrate the new customization features, OpenAI will offer organizations 1M training tokens per day at no cost through September 23.
