Welcome to the AI Safety Newsletter by the Center for AI Safety. We discuss developments in AI and AI safety. No technical background required.Google DeepMind’s GPT-4 CompetitorComputational power is a key driver of AI progress, and a new report suggests that Google’s upcoming GPT-4 competitor will be trained on unprecedented amounts of compute. The model, currently named Gemini, may be trained by the end of this year with 5x more computational power than GPT-4. By the end of next year, the report projects that Google will have the ability to train a model with 20x more compute than GPT-4. For reference, the compute difference between GPT-3 and GPT-4 was 100x. If these projections are true, Google’s new models could create a meaningful spike relative to current AI capabilities.
