Latest Developments 🌍

You Search Engine

Ready to replace Google as your default search engine? Introducing You, an AI-powered search engine to enhance your search experience. Let’s look at what makes You search stand out from other search engines:

• YouChat: Conversational AI chatbot to provide pinpointed answers to your search query along with the indexed web pages.

• YouCode: For the first-time ever a search engine generates code on-the-fly using AI along with the search results for a given query.

• YouWrite: It lets you generate content spontaneously using AI.

• YouImagine: It allows you to generate artistic images within the search engine.

GeoCode: Intuitive 3D Shape Editor

GeoCode is a tool that helps users edit 3D shapes in an intuitive way. It converts a point cloud or sketches into a form that can be easily modified using a set of parameters. The tool uses neural network to do this and produces high-quality 3D shapes as a result. It can also make detailed changes to these shapes. It is better at understanding and creating 3D shapes than other similar tools.

Informative Drawings: Line Drawing from your Photographs

Current line drawing methods are limited by paired datasets and struggle with shape deformation. Informative Drawings introduces a new approach using an image translation network with geometry and semantic losses to create high-quality line drawings from photographs, outperforming the existing methods.

News from the Industry 🧑‍🏫

Quora launches Poe 🤖

Quora has launched Poe (Platform for Open Exploration), a platform that enables users to ask questions and engage in a back-and-forth dialogue with artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots. The invite-only platform, which is currently available only on iOS, is designed to be a place where people can easily interact with a number of different AI agents. Quora plans to offer a way for model providers to submit their models for inclusion on the platform in the future.

Reverse Prompt Engineering 😱

With all the buzz around ChatGPT, there is significant concern around prompt security and privacy for products built on top of models like GPT-3. Shawn Wang in his blog introduces the idea of Reverse prompt engineering which can let you figure out the source prompt (or the creative essence) responsible for generating the application output. Here is how he figured out the source prompts for the newly released Notion AI 👇

Large Language Models on Local machine 🪷

Introducing Petals, an easy way to run 100B+ parameters language models such as BLOOM-176B on your local machine. It enables collaborative usage by allowing users to load small parts of the model while working with others to serve the remaining parts. Inference on Petals runs at approximately 1 second per step, making it suitable for chatbots and other interactive applications. Petals offer users the flexibility of PyTorch with the convenience of an API and allow for fine-tuning and sampling methods through custom paths or access to hidden states.

Tools of the Trade ⚒️

Podcast summary at your fingertips 💅

Summly AI is changing the way people consume podcasts by providing concise and accurate summaries with key pointers and action items using AI. Now you can go through three podcasts at the same time it would have required you to listen to one podcast.

Frontend for GPT-3

Retune lets you build GPT-3 powered applications without writing any code. It lets you quickly build anything, from chatbots to personal assistants, and put them into production. It even lets you finetune GPT-3 on your data. Now go from ideas to execution in a few minutes!

Marketplace for AI Images 🛒

Fuups AI not only lets you generate images with AI but also provides you with a platform to buy and sell AI images.
