xAI released Grok-2, claiming it outperforms Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4-Turbo on LMSYS. It offers improved reasoning, real-time 𝕏 integration, and plans for multimodal features. Enterprise API access is coming soon.

California partner with NVIDIA for an AI education initiative. The program me will certify educators through NVIDIA's Deep Learning Institute, providing access to teaching materials and GPU-accelerated workstations. It aims to prepare students and adults for AI-driven careers across various sectors.

NVIDIA's AI tech transforms STEM education globally. GPU-accelerated curriculum in 5,000+ schools prepares students for AI-driven jobs. Offers RTX AI Toolkit, RAPIDS libraries, robotics support, and remote learning tools.

Mistral AI enables model customisation via La Plateforme and introduces AI Agents, allowing developers to create complex, shareable workflows.

The guide suggests fine-tuning, particularly parameter-efficient fine-tuning, as a more viable approach for smaller teams with limited resources compared to pre-training methods.

The guide identifies five scenarios where fine-tuning excels: customising tone and format, improving accuracy, addressing niche domains, reducing costs via distillation, and developing new abilities.
