Quick takeaways
Meta-prompting, which involves using different expert models within a large language model, can improve results in AI tasks.
Microsoft's cloud services revenue grew by 30%, driven by AI services, but overall, only 10% of companies have successfully launched enterprise AI solutions.
Deep dives
Meta Prompting for Better Results
A research from Stanford University and OpenAI has shown that breaking down long complex tasks into smaller tasks within a single chat, known as meta prompting, can improve results. By using different expert models within a large language model, known as LLM, for different segments of a project, researchers achieved even better results when combined with a code interpreter.
Microsoft's Growth Driven by AI
Microsoft's recent earning call revealed that their cloud services revenue grew by 30%, driven largely by AI services. Paying for AI services accounted for 6% of this growth. Financial services, banking, defense, and insurance showed slightly more advanced adoption of enterprise AI solutions, but overall, only 10% of companies have successfully launched such solutions.
Open Source Models Empowering Developers
Open source models like Alpha Code Mium from DeepMind and Miku from Mistral are pushing the boundaries of code generation. Alpha Code Mium's new model generates computer code surpassing its predecessor and outperforming humans on various coding benchmarks. Mistral's Miku model, an early version, may even surpass the capabilities of GPT-4, providing open source access to powerful generative AI models. These developments present opportunities for smaller players, yet raise concerns about data security with big names like anthropic and Microsoft experiencing data leaks.
