Deep dives
Focus on Rag and its Improvements
One of the main predictions for 2024 is that there will be a continued focus on retrieval-augmented generation (Rag) models and improvements in their performance. Rag models are expected to be further developed and optimized for various tasks and applications.
Open Models Outperforming GPT-4
Another prediction for 2024 is that open models will surpass GPT-4 in terms of performance and capabilities. While GPT-4 is currently considered a powerful and versatile model, open models are expected to catch up and even exceed GPT-4's capabilities in certain tasks and domains.
Enhanced Productivity through AI
AI is predicted to enhance productivity in the workplace rather than replace human workers. As AI technology continues to develop and become more integrated into workflows, it is expected to augment human capabilities and facilitate more efficient and effective work processes.
Focus on Multimodal Models
In 2024, there will be an increased focus on multimodal models, which combine different modalities like text, image, and audio. These models will enable more comprehensive and diverse AI applications and pave the way for more advanced and interactive user experiences.
Shift towards Small Language Models
Economic and computational efficiency will drive a shift towards smaller language models in 2024. While large language models have been dominant, the focus will shift towards smaller models that provide comparable performance while requiring less computational resources and offering greater efficiency.
We scoured the internet to find all the AI related predictions for 2024 (at least from people that might know what they are talking about), and, in this episode, we talk about some of the common themes. We also take a moment to look back at 2023 commenting with some distance on a crazy AI year.
