Introducing Tinker: a flexible API for fine-tuning language models. Write training loops in Python on your laptop; we'll run them on distributed GPUs. Private beta starts today. We can't wait to see what researchers and developers build with cutting-edge open models!

LoRA makes fine-tuning more accessible, but it's unclear how it compares to full fine-tuning. We find that the performance often matches closely---more often than you might expect. In our latest Connectionism post, we share our experimental results and recommendations for LoRA.

We have been working hard for the past 6 months on what I believe is the most ambitious multimodal AI program in the world. It is fantastic to see how pieces of a system that previously seemed intractable just fall into place. Feeling so lucky to create the future with this

Finally, all the real-time conversation capabilities shown during the spring update are released! Video input was the last piece. I guess, time really flies with such an amazing team, it really feels like we demoed it just a couple of weeks ago.

A new AI-powered vision tool created an anatomy quiz, reviewed hand-drawn answers on a chalkboard, and provided feedback — all in real-time. For a fun challenge, it also wrote and sang a rhyme about finding the area of a triangle in a British accent. https://t.co/3KVjllo1V8
