Kan AI me helpen mijn belastingaangifte invullen? Ja hoor! Toelichtingsdocument (132 blz, 59k woorden) en voorbeeldaangifte (14blz, 8k woorden) gedownload van https://t.co/ikqFHiyMGD en geüpload naar Google storage. Gemini 1.5 pro (die tot 1m tokens kan verwerken) doet de rest!

Oh and by the way, InstructBLIP directly comes with 4-bit and 8-bit inference thanks to the magic of @Tim_Dettmers, enabling same performance and reducing the amount of memory by half or more!!

Hat/tip to @younesbelkada for integrating 💪

Data preparation is going to be the #1 differentiator when it comes to Foundation Models.

Hence I've been involved in a new open-source project aimed at building & sharing reusable components for data preprocessing: https://t.co/9I7qqnLrz5

Waar komt ChatGPT plots vandaan? Wat is generatieve AI en hoe gaat het ons leven veranderen? We leggen het uit, met veel dank aan @LaurentSorber, @NathalieSmuha en @slatre. En @janlooy en ML6 collega's ook, al zit hun input vooral in een later stuk.
