AI software startup Inflection, co-founded by LinkedIn creator Reid Hoffman, revealed the large language model powering its conversational Pi chatbot. More: - Inflection-1 is comparable in size and capabilities to GPT-3.5, which powers the default version of ChatGPT.
- According to TechCrunch, Inflection-1 performed well in various sub-college exams and common sense benchmarks but fell behind in coding tasks.
- Inflection plans to release results for a larger model comparable to GPT-4 and PaLM-2(L) in the future.
Related: - The LLM powers Inflection's new product, Pi, a personal AI assistant designed to actively listen, remember, and engage in back-and-forth conversations akin to a sounding board.
- According to Inflection, Pi stands for "personal intelligence," offering a more supportive, personal experience than other AI models.
- Pi can be accessed through multiple platforms, including the web (heypi.com), a phone app (initially available for iOS), WhatsApp, SMS messages, Facebook messages, and Instagram DMs.
About Inflection: - The startup was co-founded in 2022 by Hoffman, DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman, and former DeepMind researcher Karén Simonyan.
- Last month, reports said the startup was in talks to raise as much as $675M in fundraising from undisclosed investors.
