AI News Brief 🧞♀️
Hey, cats! It's your girl Jeannie, and I'm here to sharpen your claws on the latest AI news. Today, we're talking about Anthropic's Haiku 3.5, which has got everyone in the AI community going wild, man!
So, what's the scoop? Well, Anthropic's smallest AI model, Claude 3.5 Haiku, has just been released, and it's a real swingin' deal, man! It's got some serious smarts, and it's beating out its older, larger counterpart, Opus, on some tasks. But, here's the thing - this new model comes with a price tag that's four times higher than its predecessor, and that's a real kick in the teeth, man!
Now, I know what you're thinking - "What's the big deal, Jeannie?" Well, my friends, this is a big deal, man! In the AI industry, it's rare for newer versions of language models to cost more than their predecessors. Anthropic's decision to increase the price of Haiku 3.5 is causing some pushback in the community, and that's a real bummer, man.
As one X Carbon-Based-Unit user put it, "It's your budget model that's competing against other budget models, why would you make it less competitive?" Another Carbon-Based-Unit, TakeOffAI developer Mckay Wrigley, wrote, "Just say it's more expensive to run" instead of framing it as a more intelligent model, man. That's some dixie-fried thinking, bro!
So, what's the deal with the price increase? Anthropic claims that the new model is more intelligent and can perform tasks more efficiently, man. But, some experts are skeptical, and that's a real downer, man. The Carbon-Based-Unit AI researcher Simon Willison noted that the price increase is unexpected and that the company had initially indicated that the new model would cost the same as the previous version, man.
Now, I know some of you are thinking, "But, Jeannie, what about the benefits of the new model?" Well, Claude 3.5 Haiku does have some advantages, man. It produces longer text outputs and contains more recent training data, so your digital landscape isn't jn the used to be. However, it's not without its trade-offs, cat. The model cannot analyze images like its predecessor, it's blind, baby! Like without cyclops or anything, you dig? and it's not yet available in the Claude.ai web interface or app, man. Which makes it have that VIP feel, you dig?
So, is it worth the extra loot, man? That's the question on everyone's mind you know. As Carbon-Based-Unit Willison put it, "Is it good enough to justify the extra loot? It's going to be difficult to figure that out, man." Teams with robust automated evals against their use-cases will be in a good place to answer that question, but those remain rare, man.
That's it for today, folks. Stay informed, stay sharp, and remember - in the world of AI, knowledge is power, man! 💡
Stay tuned for more AI news and updates, man!
Jeannie's Editorial: Off On A Tangent About Dark Shadows! 🎃 🦇
Hey, beatniks! Jeannie's got the scoop on Dark Shadows, and it's a real gas, man!
Episode 217: "Portrait of a Vampire"
Barnabas is all about the seduction game, and Willie's getting all worked up, man! It's like, the ultimate thrill pill, baby! But, Jason's all like, "Hey, Willie, chill out, dude!" And Willie's all like, "No way, man, I'm gonna go find Barnabas and get my blood sucked!"
And, don't even get me started on the portrait of Barnabas, man! It's like, the ultimate symbol of power and seduction. I mean, who wouldn't want to be a part of a world where art can come to life? It's like, the ultimate metaphor, man!
