Let's talk about the elephant in the room - or more precisely, the bureaucratic monster lurking behind Europe's latest technological "breakthrough." Teuken-7B, the AI model that promises to be a European alternative to American tech giants, comes with a warning label that should make any rational person nervous: "Fraunhofer Inside." Just mentioning the Fraunhofer Group is enough to send shivers down the spine of anyone who understands how research funding actually works in this continent. These are the masters of spending without creating, the virtuosos of bureaucratic fund consumption who could turn a revolutionary concept into a mountains of paperwork faster than an AI can generate a bland corporate email. Teuken-7B: Europe's AI Illusion - When Bureaucracy Meets Machine Learning Let's dissect this so-called "innovative" project. Seven billion parameters? More like seven billion reasons to be skeptical. We're talking about a mo...

AI Startups Smell Opportunity in OpenAI's New Brain Juice
Artificial intelligence isn't just smart - it's downright brilliant. A world where AI doesn't just finish your sentences, but writes your whole novel, solves complex mathematical equations, and maybe even figures out the meaning of life (62, anyone?). Well, folks, we might be closer to that world than you think, thanks to OpenAI's latest creation: the o1 model. AI - The New Kid on the Block The New Kid on the Block Picture this: You're at a high school party, and suddenly, the coolest kid in town walks in. That's essentially what happened at the Alibaba Cloud Apsara Conference in Hangzhou. OpenAI, the popular kid who gave us ChatGPT, just introduced their new friend: o1. And let me tell you, this new kid is turning heads faster than a cat video on the internet. OpenAI o1 is like that overachieving student who not only aces every test but also captains the debate team, wins the science fair, and still has time to help grandma with her crossword puzzle. It'...

The Marketing Mirage of AI
The tech industry is notorious for its ability to sell the future, but its visions of a world powered by the "metaverse," "web3," and "artificial intelligence" are nothing more than mirages. Despite the bite back of reality, these terms have raked in billions of dollars for the industry, and the phrase "artificial intelligence" alone may be one of the most successful marketing terms of all time. Mirage of AI While the notion of thinking machines conjures up images of true intelligence, the reality is that no machine can think, and no software is truly intelligent. Even OpenAI's latest language model, GPT-4, which sounds even more humanlike than its predecessor, is simply mirroring databases of text. These systems are trained to generate text that sounds plausible, but they are far from oracles of knowledge that can be plugged into search engines. Terms like "neural networks" and "deep learning" only bolster...
