Introducing Fuyu-Heavy, our new multimodal model. Fuyu-Heavy is the world’s third-most-capable multimodal model, behind only GPT4-V and Gemini Ultra, which are 10-20 times larger. In particular, it outperforms Gemini Pro at both MMLU and MMMU...
Workflows can do repetitive tasks for you. For example, this workflow moves the candidate to a technical interview round once the recruiter is satisfied with their take home test submission.
Today we’re opening access to Adept Experiments 🧪, a new way to explore the technology we are developing at Adept. Each experiment is a self-contained mini-tool or demo that showcases a part of our underlying tech. adept.ai/blog/experimen…
We’re open-sourcing a multimodal model: Fuyu-8B! Building useful AI agents requires fast foundation models that can see the visual world. Fuyu-8B performs well at standard image understanding benchmarks, but it also can do a bunch of new stuff (below) adept.ai/blog/fuyu-8b
After much hard work, we’re excited about a series of releases coming up this fall! We’re starting with a small appetizer: we’re open-sourcing Persimmon-8B, the most capable fully permissively-licensed language model with <10B parameters. Details here: adept.ai/blog/persimmon…
I’m somehow still surprised at how much of the actual negotiation for $XXM deals happens over iMessage
I joined @AdeptAILabs last month and we are hiring! We need SWEs, Research Scientists & Research Engineers. We're about 40 people, we've raised $415M from top investors, and we've got some incredible in house LLMs we're building on top of. If you're interested, please reach out!

key thing about heat pumps is they are so efficient that it actually saves energy to burn natural gas in power plants and use that electricity for heating instead of gas furnaces, even with all the transmission loss x.com/kevinkircher/s…

How it started vs. How it's going
$4M is of course an eye-popping amount of money, but this is apparently 1/40,000 US births. Would you pay $100 to guarantee that, if your baby is one of them, they will likely be healthy and live a normal life instead of dying a slow horrible death over several years? I would!
Fascinating read about the world's newest most expensive drug ($4M) A one-off treatment for metachromatic leukodystrophy, a rare genetic condition where kids develop motor & neurological disease, and most die in childhood. 58% of untreated died before 6 yo versus 0% of treated.
This is explains how the xz backdoor was found
scifi fragment: professional parents in an immortal society everyone's been around for 10K years, everyone knows who the 100x parents are. you unfreeze embryo when you get off the waitlist for one. ppl meet at bars, say "who parented you? hell yeah, that's my dad too"

Being a senior manager is the most schizo job because you'll have like 8 threads open, two of which are HR issue level people problems, three are mundane requests for software or whatever, one will be someone showing you a new programming framework, the last two business folks…
this is an extremely leftist/wordcel/normie question the normal state of cargo ships is sinking/no electrical power/no rudder control only constant maintenance, discipline, and executive function keeps cargo ships out of that ground state and in a more energetic state
🚨🇺🇸 How does a cargo ship magically lose all its power? Something seems off about this.
a 50/50 mixture of white rice and black beans is $.90/lb at walmart for less than $3 a day, you can get 2400 calories of boring but decent nutrition that's 9 minutes of mopping the floor at Buc-ee's if you like oil and garlic salt, mop for another 30 seconds
