The large language models that have increasingly taken over the tech world are not “cheap” in many ways. The most prominent LLMs, such as GPT-4, took some $100 million to build in the form of legal costs of accessing training data, computational power costs for what could be billions or trillions of parameters, the energy and water needed to fuel computation, and the many coders developing the training algorithms that must run cycle after cycle so the machine will “learn.”The large language models that have increasingly taken over the tech world are not “cheap” in many ways.

Artificial intelligence (AI) may reshape many industries, but the impact of the nascent technology on various jobs remains unclear. Daniele Quercia and colleagues used machine learning to investigate itself, by identifying patents for AI technologies that may impact various occupational tasks. The work is published in PNAS Nexus.Artificial intelligence (AI) may reshape many industries, but the impact of the nascent technology on various jobs remains unclear.

Neural network pruning is a key technique for deploying artificial intelligence (AI) models based on deep neural networks (DNNs) on resource-constrained platforms, such as mobile devices. However, hardware conditions and resource availability vary greatly across different platforms, making it essential to design pruned models optimally suited to specific hardware configurations.Neural network pruning is a key technique for deploying artificial intelligence (AI) models based on deep neural networks (DNNs) on resource-constrained platforms, such as mobile devices.
