CLAUDE IS NOW THE WORLD’S BEST AI SUMMARIZER

Anthropic expanded the token context for their conversational AI, Claude.

They lept from 9K tokens to 100K tokens. For context, a token is a way to measure the number of words a model can consider and recall. For example, 100,000 tokens are ~75,000 words.

Let me ask you this: how fast can you read the first Harry Potter? Keep in mind that the average person can finish it in 5 hours. 

You’re in that ballpark, right? But did you know that in AI terms, Harry Potter is around 100K tokens in length?

Claude can now digest that entire book and respond to you in 22 seconds.

That’s the magic of AI.

This new context window is a huge deal.

Researchers can find key points in long, technical papers without breaking a sweat. Even business analysts can upload an entire 10-K from a corporation and watch Claude break it down for them.

We’ve never seen a context window this large available to the public. There’s the rub because Anthropic will only release this as part of Claude’s API service. 

You can join the waitlist here, but the odds are that only businesses and AI researchers will get to play with this for now.

Token restrictions are now a game of haves and have-nots. Even OpenAI is gating who can access GPT4_32K, the largest context window for their model. 

You love to see these companies make these competitive leaps, but it will be a second before it trickles down to public use.

THE EUROPEAN UNION IS GETTING CLOSER TO ENACTING AI RESTRICTIONS & REGULATIONS

Two important committees within the EU drafted the mandate to debate the AI Act after editing the initial proposal.

It’s not law yet; the committee proposed this act before ChatGPT launched. So an update was necessary before they brought the legislation to the floor for debate.

We’re getting into the political weeds with this one, but the essential ideas are worth considering:

1/ There are clear, uncrossable boundaries

The EU will not tolerate any AI that uses biometric surveillance to track its citizens in this proposed law.

They also draw the line at predictive policing, but some member states argue that the proposal speaks too generally about that space and risks people’s safety.

Expect that part of the AI Act to receive a ton of debate.

2/ The EU wants AI companies to slow down

Google, OpenAI, Microsoft, and all the others launch models and papers without any regulation to hold them up. This new law would change that.

Instead, every new AI tool must undergo standardized risk assessments and open up some proprietary data. In other words, big tech must disclose any copyrighted material used to train models going forward.

3/ Transparency & Citizen’s Rights above all else

The committees want to create a database of every AI tool in the EU to show people how AI uses their data and what info they collect.

That goes all the way down to general-purpose tools, so any AI that influences your day-to-day is in that database.

Overall, the new edits show that politicians understand the weight of how fast AI is moving. The deadline to pass the AI Act is April 2024.

Fingers crossed, it doesn’t take that long, but this is the bureaucracy we’re talking about.
