翻译技术速递AI21 Labs Launches Language Model, One of the Largest to Date
AI21实验室推出语言模型，这种模型是迄今为止最大的语言模型之一
The Tel Aviv-based artificial intelligence (AI) development company AI21 Labs has announced the launch of what may be one of the largest AI models of its kind. AI21 Labs’ Jurassic-1 Jumbo Language Model works as an application programming interface (API) which is now available for developers and researchers in beta via the company’s recently launched AI21 Studio.
“You shouldn’t have to be an AI researcher working at a big tech company to do this stuff,” said Yoav Shoham, the company’s co-founder and co-CEO. “Now anyone — publishers, students, artists, businesspeople, researchers — can build language-based applications that rival those being dreamed up in big AI labs.”
AI21 Labs was initially founded in 2017, by Shoham and his colleagues Ori Goshen and Amnon Shashua. Jurassic-1 was launched through the AI21 Studio Aug. 11, and according to a press release from the company, is available for free to anyone who is interested in using or exploring the program. AI21 Labs has been working on developing Jurassic-1 since the company was founded in 2017, and the model has cultivated a vocabulary of 250,000 lexical items.
Venture Beat’s Kyle Wiggers noted that the model could even rival OpenAI’s GPT-3 model — GPT-3 is currently recognized as the largest AI model of its kind, however AI21 Labs says its Jurassic-1 model is “slightly larger” than GPT-3, with more than 178 billion computational parameters. Additionally, GPT-3’s vocabulary is about one-fifth the size of Jurassic-1’s, at just around 50,000 lexical items.
Both language models are effective in generating written language, such as recipes, emails, website layouts, and code — however, AI21 Labs stresses the fact that Jurassic-1 is much more accessible to the public than other language models with similar capabilities. Unlike other language models like GPT-3, Jurassic-1 is available for free to anybody who signs up for an AI21 Studio account.
“Our mission at AI21 Labs is to fundamentally reimagine the way humans read and write by introducing machines as thought partners, and the only way we can achieve this is if we take on this challenge together,” reads the company’s announcement.
AI21实验室总部位于特拉维夫的人工智能(AI)开发公司。AI21实验室宣布：”AI21可能是同类中最大的人工智能模型之一。”AI21实验室的Jurassic-1 Ju作为一个应用程序编程接口(API)进行工作，该公司最近推出的AI21工作室为开发人员提供了测试版。
该公司的联合创始人兼首席执行官约夫·肖汉姆（Yoav Shoham）表示：“你不必非得是一名在大型科技公司工作的人工智能研究员才能做这些事情。”“现在，任何人都可以构建基于语言的应用程序，例如：出版商、学生、艺术家、商界人士、研究人员，这些人能够与大型人工智能实验室的应用程序的工作效率相匹敌。”
AI21实验室最初成立于2017年，由Shoham和他的同事Ori Goshen和Amnon Shashua创建。8月11日，AI21工作室发布Jurassic-1，根据该公司的一份新闻稿内容叙述，任何有兴趣使用或探索该程序的人都可以免费获得。自2017年公司成立以来，AI21 Labs一直致力于开发Jurassic-1，该模型已经创建了25万个词汇量。
Venture Beat的Kyle Wiggers指出，该模型甚至可以与OpenAI的GPT-3模型相媲美。GPT-3是目前在同类中被公认的最大的人工智能模型。但AI21 Labs表示，Jurassic-1模型比GPT-3“稍大”，它超过1780亿个计算参数。此外，GPT-3的词汇量大约有50,000个词项，大约是Jurassic-1的五分之一。
这两种语言模型在生成菜谱，电子邮件，网站布局和代码这类书面语言方面都是有效的。但AI21实验室强调了一个事实：Jurassic-1比其他具有类似功能的语言模型更容易被访问。与GPT-3等其他语言模型不同，Jurassic-1对任何注册AI21 Studio帐户的用户都是免费的。
该公司在公告中写道：“我们在AI21实验室的任务是通过引入机器作为思维伙伴，从根本上重新想象人类的读写方式，我们共同应对这一挑战是实现这一目标的唯一途径。”
