Artificial intelligence models are typically used online, but a variety of freely available tools are changing that. local AIs are trending. AI - Why local models are the future The website histo.fyi is a database of structures of immune system proteins called major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. It contains images, data tables, and amino acid sequences, which uses artificial intelligence (AI) tools called large language models (LLMs) to transform these assets into readable summaries. But he doesn't use ChatGPT or any other web-based LLM. Instead, he runs the AI on his laptop.   In recent years, chatbots based on LLMs have been praised for their ability to write poetry or hold conversations. Some LLMs have hundreds of billions of parameters—the more parameters, the more complex—and are only accessible online. But two recent trends have emerged. First, organizations are creating “open weights” versions of LLMs, where the weights and biases used to train ...

California lawmakers have passed a sweeping set of bills aimed at regulating the artificial intelligence industry, combating deepfakes, and protecting workers from exploitation as the technology rapidly evolves. California leads the nation in AI regulation The Democrat-controlled California legislature, in its final week of the session, approved hundreds of bills that will now head to Governor Gavin Newsom's desk. The deadline for the governor to act is Saturday. Newsom, a Democrat, has until September 30 to sign the proposals into law, veto them, or let them take effect without his signature. While he indicated in July that he would sign a bill to combat deepfakes in elections, he has not commented on the other measures. Earlier this summer, he cautioned that overregulating the industry at home could harm it. In recent years, he has often cited the state's budget woes as a reason for rejecting legislation he might otherwise support. Here's a look at some of the AI bills ...
