OpenAI is coming up with their next AI model ‘GPT-Next’ which will leave GPT-4 in the dust with its computing power!

Not only this, they’re ready to launch another far more advanced AI model next year called ‘Orion’.

But is this another hyped up tool with nothing to show just like SORA?

More on this in a bit; here’s the scoop for this week.

• OpenAI Unveils Ambitious Plans for GPT-Next and Orion

• AI Agents Build Their Own Society in Minecraft

• Elon Musk’s xAI Unveils “Colossus,” the World’s Most Powerful AI Cluster

OpenAI Unveils Ambitious Plans for GPT-Next and Orion

OpenAI Japan’s CEO announced that 'GPT-Next,' OpenAI's upcoming AI model, will be 100 times more powerful than GPT-4, with a potential release by the end of 2024. This leap in performance comes not from sheer computing power but from advancements in architecture and learning efficiency, leveraging a smaller version of OpenAI's developing "Strawberry" AI system.

Additionally, a more advanced model, Orion, is slated for 2025. This development signals OpenAI’s continued dominance in AI, promising a massive boost in speed and efficiency for developers and applications. If these translations hold true, GPT-Next represents the next giant leap in AI evolution, combining power with unparalleled efficiency.

AI Agents Build Their Own Society in Minecraft

Altera’s Project Sid has simulated over 1,000 autonomous AI agents collaborating in Minecraft to create their own economy, culture, religion, and government. These agents operate independently for hours or days, achieving complex goals like forming merchant hubs and democracies. Initially in Minecraft, these adaptable agents can function across various platforms.

Altera’s breakthrough shows how AI agents could revolutionize problem-solving by simulating complex societal solutions in virtual worlds before real-world application.

Elon Musk’s xAI Unveils “Colossus,” the World’s Most Powerful AI Cluster

xAI has launched "Colossus," the world's most powerful AI cluster, powered by 100,000 liquid-cooled Nvidia H100 GPUs on a single network fabric. Built in just 122 days, xAI plans to double its size to 200,000 GPUs soon. This rapid expansion comes after xAI’s Grok 2, trained on just 15,000 GPUs, quickly matched OpenAI's GPT-4.

With Colossus, xAI is poised to push AI boundaries, intensifying competition with OpenAI, Google, and others, potentially reshaping the AI landscape with its scale and speed.

Profluent Bio Uses AI to Create Advanced Gene-Editing Tool OpenCRISPR-1

Researchers at Profluent Bio have developed OpenCRISPR-1, a novel gene-editing tool designed using AI and large language models trained on over a million CRISPR operons. OpenCRISPR-1 matches or surpasses current CRISPR systems in performance and safety, showing similar DNA-cutting efficiency with fewer errors. Its sequence is publicly available, encouraging wider research use.

OpenCRISPR-1 represents a step forward in treating genetic diseases with greater precision and safety. Though still years from practical application, AI-driven advancements like OpenCRISPR-1 could revolutionize personalized gene-editing, bringing us closer to cures for previously untreatable conditions.
