Large language models, such as ChatGPT, perform significantly less well in Portuguese than in English despite both languages being spoken worldwide. This gap has now been closed with “GigaVerbo.” The team led by Dr. Nicholas Kluge Corrêa from the Center for Science and Thought at the University of Bonn is now presenting the project in the journal Patterns. The researchers were among the first to utilize the new “Marvin” supercomputer at the University of Bonn. Nicholas Kluge Corrêa and his colleague Aniket Sen are both members of the Transdisciplinary Research Area “Sustainable Futures” at the University of Bonn.Large language models, such as ChatGPT, perform significantly less well in Portuguese than in English despite both languages being spoken worldwide.

AI’s talent arms race is starting to look like pro sports
AI is entering a new phase where access to top talent is becoming as important as, if not more important than, compute or data. The market for AI researchers is so overheated, it’s starting to look a lot like pro sports — complete with outsized contracts and unprecedented infrastructure needs. On today’s episode of Equity, […]AI is entering a new phase where access to top talent is becoming as important as, if not more important than, compute or data.

Tabular data is at the heart of scientific analysis—whether in medicine, the social sciences, or even archaeology. Making it comprehensible and usable is often a tedious task, especially when the data is extensive or complex. The Institute for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (IKIM) at the University of Duisburg-Essen has developed an elegant solution: Datavzrd.Tabular data is at the heart of scientific analysis—whether in medicine, the social sciences, or even archaeology.
