OpenAI's ChatGPT is revolutionizing natural language processing, with its impressive accuracy and speed. Microsoft is helping, by developing a new AI chip, Athena, to reduce running costs. SemiAnalysis's data indicates that the costs already exceed $700k a day - though AI21 Labs can reduce that by 50%. Read to learn more about this exciting technology.
Microsoft's groundbreaking AI chip Athena could revolutionize OpenAI's language models, saving up to $700,000 per day in processing costs. Microsoft began this project in 2019, now employing more than 300, working to make it available to internal users as soon as 2021. Latitude, an AI dungeon game using OpenAI's language model, is already paying $200,000 a month for AWS servers. Microsoft is looking to improve budgeting for AI projects and reduce operations costs for AI models.
OpenAI, the San Francisco-based research laboratory, is looking to advanced AI technologies like ChatGPT to propel its goals of forming human-level artificial intelligence. Yet doing so poses a large cost as analyst Dylan Patel estimates at least $700,000 per day. This cost is reliant on OpenAI's GPT-3 model, but would likely increase with GPT-4. Microsoft is aiding the effort by creating an AI chip, called Athena, to reduce the expense of using GPUs. To cut down costs, Latitude, a startup, shifted to AI21 Labs software, reducing their $200,000/month to just $100,000/month. Invest in OpenAI to experience the benefits of human-level AI today!
