另一個跡象表明,當前VC對AI是貪得無厭的,熟練的,創業構建人工智能”使人類和電腦一起工作創造性地解決問題,“昨天宣布,它在一係列B一輪融資籌資3.5億美元通用催化劑和引發資本共同參與,給予,Atlassian公司,微軟,英偉達,工作日,Caterina Fake,前沿,PSP增長,SV和A.Capital天使。《福布斯》報道,估值是“至少”10億美元。注資使熟練的總數提高到4.15億美元,而聯合創始人兼首席執行官大衛的菜肴說正在向隨筆,模型訓練和員工人數的增長。“巨型基礎模型對語言和圖像顯示驚人的能力在過去的幾年裏。熟練通過一種新型的基於這一勢頭地基模型,可以在任何軟件執行操作工具使用自然語言,”他在一份新聞稿中說。“地基模型”有點費解。但熟練的願景,在高級別上,是創建它指的是作為“人工智能的隊友”訓練,使用各種不同的軟件工具和api。調查方法來生成文本或圖像,而是像初創公司AI OpenAI穩定,熟練的研究人們如何使用電腦——特別是他們如何瀏覽網頁和導航軟件,訓練一個人工智能模型,可以將文本指令集的數字操作。熟練並不是唯一一個探索這個想法。在2022年2月發表的一篇論文中,科學家們在Alphabet-backed DeepMind有AI觀察鍵盤和鼠標命令完成任務“instruction-following”電腦的人,如預訂航班,學習如何做本身。 Elsewhere, DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman has teamed up with LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman to launch Inflection AI, which aims to use AI to help humans work more efficiently with computers. The competition isn’t scaring investor away, though — no doubt because of the substantial market opportunity. In a recent survey of AI professionals by Intel-owned Cnvrg.io, nearly 50% said that they believe organization investment in AI development will increase despite the macroeconomic climate. Adept is running lean for now, with just 25 employees. But it’s reportedly experienced some high-level turnover, losing two of its co-founders, Ashish Vaswani and Niki Parmar, to another startup in recent months. That hasn’t disrupted product development, apparently. Adept’s MVP, called ACT-1, can perform tasks like importing LinkedIn URLs into recruiting software, according to Forbes. ACT-1 displays as an overlay window on top of existing software like Google Chrome or Salesforce. A prototype is ready for desktop, but will also come to mobile in the near future. The versatility of ACT-1 evidently attracted strategic investors like Microsoft, Nvidia, Atlassian and Workday, all of whom market software that might someday benefit from its AI assistant. General Catalyst’s Deep Nishar had this to say: “Adept … possesses a depth of expertise to deliver a commercial product that pushes the generative AI frontier beyond text and image modalities into the practical realm of knowledge worker actions. Excitingly, ACT-1 has the potential to lower the barrier to entry within the enterprise workforce and thus may yield greater inclusive prosperity.”
