AI MODEL

✨ Google's small AI model outperforms GPT-3.5

Google just launched Gemma 2 2B, a lightweight AI model with just 2B parameters that outperforms much larger models like GPT-3.5 and Mixtral 8x7B on key benchmarks.

Key Takeaways:

• The 27B Gemma 2 model tops the LMSYS leaderboard, showcasing superior performance.

• Gemma 2 2B boasts just 2.6B parameters but was trained on a massive 2 trillion token dataset.

• New additions include Gemma 2 2B, ShieldGemma, and Gemma Scope for improved safety and transparency.

• Gemma 2 2B is optimized with NVIDIA technology, enabling efficient deployment across various platforms.

• ShieldGemma focuses on detecting harmful content, and enhancing the safety of AI applications.

Why it matters: As we start using AI on our own devices like phones and laptops, it's important to have small and fast AI models. Google's Gemma 2 is doing better than the GPT-3.5 Turbo even though it's much smaller. This shows that Google is leading in making these compact AI models.

AI CHART

Companies use AI to enhance efficiency and economic performance, while the EU has introduced the AI Act to regulate its safe application.

However, the technology also enables sophisticated white-collar crimes, such as advanced social engineering and fraud that manipulate company data and create false customer identities to influence markets and commit financial fraud.

Despite these risks, AI also offers tools to detect and prevent fraud by analyzing patterns and verifying information more effectively, suggesting a future where AI could both challenge and enhance corporate security measures.
