The AI Office is hiring

AI Act 2 years ago 9 ● 2 sources

The European Commission is hiring AI technology specialists to work in its new AI Office, which will enforce the EU's AI Act by overseeing compliance of general-purpose AI models. The application deadline is 27 March 2024, and the role requires an EU master's degree in computer science or related field plus one year of technical experience. The AI Office will have enforcement powers to evaluate models, investigate systemic risks, and require remediation or withdrawal of non-compliant AI systems from the market.

Binary and Scalar Embedding Quantization for Significantly Faster & Cheaper Retrieval

Hugging Face 2 years ago 29

Researchers introduced binary and scalar quantization methods that convert high-precision embeddings into lower-precision formats, reducing memory and storage requirements without proportional performance loss. Binary quantization reduces embeddings from float32 to 1-bit values, achieving 32x memory reduction while preserving approximately 96% retrieval performance when combined with a rescoring step, and the Hamming Distance comparison between binary embeddings requires only 2 CPU cycles. Organizations storing 250 million embeddings can reduce monthly infrastructure costs from thousands of dollars to a fraction of that amount and dramatically accelerate retrieval speed through these quantization approaches.

Total noob’s intro to Hugging Face Transformers

Hugging Face 2 years ago 47

Hugging Face Transformers is an open-source Python library that provides access to pre-trained models for natural language processing and other tasks, simplifying model deployment by abstracting away underlying framework complexity. The tutorial walks users through running Microsoft's Phi-2 model in a Hugging Face Space notebook, which requires renting a GPU (an NVIDIA A10G Small at a couple of dollars per hour) to handle the model's computational requirements. Users can now experiment with large language models without prior machine learning experience by following step-by-step code instructions in an interactive notebook environment.
