It seems the miraculous age of artificial intelligence is constantly accelerating. Every day, I come across several intriguing insights on how to speed up, enhance, or refine artificial brains. New excellent datasets and models are emerging. 🤖

For instance, we have a top-notch model for generating free text, GPT-J-6B, which is better than GPT-Neo😎. Two enthusiasts trained a beautiful model with 6 billion parameters on a single TPU in just five weeks.

A fast, accurate, and accessible programme has emerged that translates between Czech and English significantly better than, say, Google Translate, and it’s called DeepL🧐.

And finally, perhaps most interestingly, on 1st June, the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI) unveiled the Wu Dao 2.0 model (which translates to 'enlightenment' in Chinese). This network is the largest neural network ever created and likely the most powerful. It improves upon the original Wu Dao, has only been around for a few days, and already legends about it are circulating on the internet.😈

If the 19th century was the age of steam and the 20th century was the age of electricity, then the 21st century is the age of computers, information, the internet, and artificial intelligence. Or as AI🤖 wrote when it helped me craft this article: The age of artificial intelligence is nothing less than a revolution!🥳
