Inflection AI and OpenAI are both using Microsoft's Azure Cloud to run Pi and chat GPT. Sam Altman: To really get the kind of 99th percentile in terms of quality, safety and factuality, it takes world class AI scientists who have access to very, very large amounts of compute. Over three to five years, I do think that GPT-4 level performance will get 60x, maybe 100x smaller than GPT-3 was three years ago.
After Kara and Nayeema debate the pros and cons of AI personal assistants vs. human personal assistants vs. fake personal assistants, we turn to Mustafa Suleyman, the man who co-founded DeepMind. Now, he and his co-founders Reid Hoffman and Karén Simonyan have started Inflection AI, a startup that creates “personal AIs,” and they're launching with a chatbot called Pi.
Kara talks to Mustafa about whether or not Pi is "woke," the conversion of Suleyman’s former colleague, Geoffrey Hinton, and — oh yes — AI’s potential to destroy humanity.
BTW, in lieu of personal AI, you can reach out to Kara and Nayeema for advice on your burning questions regarding your career, love, life or anything else. Call 1-888-KARA-PLZ and leave us a voicemail.
