Two robots ran live all day at our AI Summit on an early build of Praxis-1, our new World Action Model. No cherry-picked clips, no benchmark maxxing, just the model working in front of everyone.
It's really cool to see our robot packing items it hadn't observed in the training data, demonstrating zero-shot learning at our AI Summit.

In all seriousness, what is the plan for college essays in the fall? It can't be college essays as usual.

An article about the amazing applications of LLM's (GPT-3 for search, Excel, codegen, SQL) From July 2020. In the 2+ years since this article was published, none of these applications took off. What happened? A Thread 🧵👇 pub.towardsai.net/crazy-gpt-…

Some more: Chain of thought prompting (Jan 2022), increasing model size from 175B -> 540B (April 2022), training on more data with Chinchilla scaling (April 2022) You can pile all of these techniques on top of each other and your LLM keeps getting better

2020 was too early for most LLM applications beyond text generation (copywriting, storytelling). But LLM's have gotten a lot better since then, and are still improving at a rapid pace. Looking forward to these new LLM's in the next generation of products.
