AI chip race: Groq CEO takes on Nvidia, claims most startups will use speedy LPUs by end of 2024
Everyone is talking about Nvidia’s jaw-dropping earnings results — up a whopping 265% from a year ago. But don’t sleep on Groq, the Silicon Valley-based company creating new AI chips for large language model (LLM) inference (making decisions or predictions on existing models, as opposed to training). Last weekend, Groq suddenly enjoyed a viral moment most startups just dream of. Sure, it wasn’t as big a social media splash as even one of Elon Musk’s posts about the totally unrelated large language model Grok. But I’m certain the folks at Nvidia took notice after Matt Shumer, CEO of...…Everyone is talking about Nvidia’s jaw-dropping earnings results — up a whopping 265% from a year ago.

Taylor Swift deepfakes: AI companies won’t be able to just ‘shake it off’ | The AI Beat
Players gonna play. Haters gonna hate. But when it comes to the pornographic AI-generated deepfakes of Taylor Swift, which were shocking, awful and viral enough to send Elon Musk skittering to hire 100 more X content moderators and Microsoft to commit to more guardrails on its Designer AI app, I would personally like to say to AI companies: No, you cannot simply ‘shake it off.’ I know you would like to shake it off. You’d like to keep cruisin.’ You can’t stop, you say. You won’t stop groovin’. It’s like you have this music in your mind sayin’ “it’s gonna be alright.” After all, Marc...…Players gonna play.

Women make less in the gig economy. A new study asked why.
When Jennifer Cartlidge lost her job at a pet supply store after covid-19 began shuttering businesses last March, she rushed to find work that minimized face-to-face contact. Cartlidge, 40, is a kidney cancer survivor with autoimmune issues, so she’s considered high-risk. Signing up to drive for the food delivery app DoorDash near her St. Louis home seemed like her best bet. “It’s been a lifesaver,” said Cartlidge, who’s a mother of four school-age children. “I can take time off when my kids are sick and help them with remote learning.” Cartlidge said she doesn’t take orders that offer less...…When Jennifer Cartlidge lost her job at a pet supply store after covid-19 began shuttering businesses last March, she rushed to find work that minimized face-to-face contact.
