It is not your imagination: Amnesty International is speeding up the pace of change

If the adoption of artificial intelligence appears to be different from any technical revolution that may have been experienced by – cloud, social and social computing – it is already.

Mary microscope has just decreased adventure 340 pages display report – Which used the word “unprecedented” in 51 of these pages – to describe the speed in which artificial intelligence is developed, adopted, spent and used, and supported with the graph after the graph.

“The pace and scope of the change in the development of artificial intelligence technology is already unprecedented, as the data is supported,” wrote in the report, which is called “trends – artificial intelligence.”

There is a specific poetic history for this person who writes this type of report. Meeker is the founder and general partner at VC Bond company and was once Known as the Queen of the Internet For its previous annual Internet trend reports. Before the establishment of Bond, Kleiner Perkins, from 2010-2019, was ran, as companies such as Facebook, Spotify, Ring and Block (then Square) supported.

It has not issued a report of trends since 2019. But it was overwhelmed by its skills to document, with the details of the laser, how it outperformed the adoption of artificial intelligence, any other technology in the history of mankind.

Chatgpt Access 800 million users in 17 months: unprecedented. The number of companies and The rate that many others It reaches high high annual revenue rates: also unprecedented.

The speed in which the costs of use decreases: unprecedented. Although the costs of training a model (also unprecedented) reaches one billion dollars, the costs of reason From Stanford.

Frame at The competitors match each other’s featuresIn a small part of the cost, including open source options, especially Chinese models: unprecedented. For example, it indicates that the NVIDIA 2024 Blackwele graphics unit uses a 105,000x energy for each 2014 GPU icon for the company.

Meanwhile, Google chips, such as TPU (tensioner processing unit), and Amazon trainingIt is widely developed for their clouds – this is also moving quickly. “These are not side projects – they are founding bets,” she writes.

The only field in which artificial intelligence has not exceeded every other technical revolution in financial returns. while Vcs pour money On the artificial intelligence fire as quickly as possible, artificial intelligence companies and cloud services providers also burn from criticism. Artificial intelligence requires huge investment in infrastructure.

This is a good thing for consumers, institutions, and the beneficiaries of rapid improvements, while competition reduces costs, as Meker indicates. But the jury is still out of any of the current crops of companies, the technology giants will become in the long, profitable, from the next generation. “The only time will determine which aspect of the money raising equation that will drop the currents of existing artificial intelligence.”

As for our rest: just hold your hats.
