Transformer Paper Author Leaves Google to Start "Sakana" a Nature-Inspired AI

Sakhana AI: Building Nature-Inspired AI Models

Sakhana AI, a startup founded by former Google AI luminaries Leon Jones and David Ha, is pioneering a revolutionary approach to AI models. They aim to create AI models that synchronize seamlessly, much like a school of fish, drawing inspiration from the intelligence exhibited by nature. By creating interconnected models that work in tandem, they seek to address the exorbitant costs and security threats posed by current AI models. Their approach promises to be more sustainable, secure, and adaptable, potentially cutting down on data consumption and offering a more diverse and global perspective on AI development. Additionally, Sakhana AI's decision to establish the company in Tokyo showcases the city's potential for molding AI solutions for non-Western contexts.
