Why it's impossible to review AIs, and why TechCrunch is doing it anyway

AI models are evolving rapidly, making it difficult to comprehensively evaluate their capabilities. The pace of release is too fast for thorough assessment, and these models are increasingly complex and opaque. Furthermore, companies do not disclose changes made to their models, making it hard to keep evaluation frameworks relevant. Synthetic benchmarks provide limited insights and can be manipulated by companies to showcase better performance. Despite these challenges, qualitative analysis of AI models is valuable to counter industry hype and provide a real-world perspective. TechCrunch utilizes a subjective approach to testing AI models, focusing on specific categories for evaluation. However, the review process is not comprehensive and has its limitations.

As AI matures, chip industry will look beyond GPUs, AMD chief says

The future of computer chips for artificial intelligence (AI) may require a slowdown in the rapid pace of change in AI technology. Graphics processing units (GPUs) have been the go-to choice for training and running AI models, but as the industry moves towards standardized model designs, there is an opportunity to develop custom chips that are more energy-efficient, smaller, and cheaper. Companies like Amazon and Google have already developed their own custom AI chips, and while there are challenges in terms of flexibility and interoperability, a combination of different types of chips will likely be used in future AI models.
