In this tutorial, we implement NVIDIA cuML as a GPU-accelerated machine learning framework and build a practical workflow that demonstrates how RAPIDS can accelerate familiar data science and machine learning tasks. We begin by configuring the GPU environment and examining cuml.accel, which lets us accelerate existing scikit-learn workloads with minimal code changes, before moving to…

The graphic also seems to…
We’ve been seeing increasingly dire warnings from AI researchers about the dangers of artificial intelligence, and even comments from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman that it may be time to “pace” AI development. But what would that actually look like? In a new blog post, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei not only echoed the call to “pace…
While OpenAI has filed confidentially for an IPO, the company will not be going public this year, according to CEO Sam Altman. Altman was interviewed recently by Fortune editor in chief Alyson Shontell; amidst the fallout from the OpenAI-HuggingFace hack, as well as broader discussions about AI safety, Shontell asked whether OpenAI still feels pressure…
The Fly Language Model (FLM) is a public chatbot that couples the complete retained MaleCNS v1.0 fruit fly connectome to a frozen LiquidAI LFM2.5-1.2B-Instruct backbone. The developer who created the FLM calls it the world’s first Fly Language Model, built on an architecture called GPF (Generative Pre-trained Fly). It does not use the GPF label,…
