🌐 The Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI (https://aiindex.stanford.edu/vibrancy/) has released its 2024 Global AI Vibrancy Tool, a way to explore and compare AI progress across 36 countries.

📊 It measures progress across the 8 broad pillars of R&D, Responsible AI, Economy, Education, Diversity, Policy and Governance, Public Opinion and Infrastructure. (Each of these pillars have a number of Sub Indices)

📈 As a whole it is not surprising that the USA was at the top in terms of overall score as of 2023 (AI investment activity is a large part of the economic pillar for example and that is a large part of the overall USA ranking) but drilling in to more STRATEGIC Macro pillars like Education, Infrastructure or R&D reveal interesting growth patterns in Asia (particularly China) and Western Europe that I suspect the 2024 metrics will bear out.

🤖 Hopefully the 2024 Global Vibrancy ranking will break out AI and ML verticals like Computer Vision or NLP and or the AI Agent space as that may also from a global macro level give indications of what is to come globally for AI in 2025.

🤖💻 Function Calling is a key component of Agent workflows. To call functions, an LLM needs a way to interact with other systems and run code. This usually means connecting it to a runtime environment that can handle function calls, data, and security.

Per the Berkeley Function-Calling Leaderboard there are only 2 fully open source models (The other 2 in the top 20 that are not closed source have cc-by-nc-4.0 licenses) out of the top 20 models that currently have function calling built in as of 17 Nov 2024.
https://gorilla.cs.berkeley.edu/leaderboard.html

The 2 Open Source Models out of the top 20 that currently support function calling are:

meetkai/functionary-medium-v3.1
Team-ACE/ToolACE-8B

This is a both a huge disadvantage AND an opportunity for the Open Source community as Enterprises, Small Business, Government Agencies etc. quickly adopt Agents and Agent workflows over the next few months. Open Source will have a lot of catching up to do as Enterprises will be hesitant to switch from the closed source models that they may initially build their Agent workflows on in the next few months to an open source alternative later.

Hopefully more open source models will support function calling in the near future.

💡Andrew Ng recently gave a strong defense of Open Source AI models and the need to slow down legislative efforts in the US and the EU to restrict innovation in Open Source AI at Stanford GSB.

Researchers from Auburn University and the University of Alberta have explored the limitations of Vision Language Models (VLMs) in their recently published paper titled "Vision language models are blind." ( Vision language models are blind (2407.06581))

Key Findings:🔍
VLMs, including GPT-4o, Gemini-1.5 Pro, Claude-3 Sonnet, and Claude-3.5 Sonnet, struggle with basic visual tasks.
Tasks such as identifying where lines intersect or counting basic shapes are challenging for these models.
The authors noted, "The shockingly poor performance of four state-of-the-art VLMs suggests their vision is, at best, like of a person with myopia seeing fine details as blurry, and at worst, like an intelligent person that is blind making educated guesses"​(Vision Language Models Are Blind; 2024)​.

Human-like Myopia? 👓
VLMs may have a blind spot similar to human myopia.
This limitation makes it difficult for VLMs to perceive details.
Suggests a potential parallel between human and machine vision limitations.

Technical Details: 🔧
The researchers created a new benchmark called BlindTest.
BlindTest consists of simple visual tasks to evaluate VLMs low-level vision capabilities.
Four VLMs were assessed using BlindTest.
Many shortcomings were revealed in the models ability to process basic visual information.

Luma AI has just launched Dream Machine, a Sora and Kling AI-like tool that generates videos from simple text and images. 🎥
Dream Machine is out of beta and offers a free tier to test it out.

I tried this extremely simple prompt with the pic below and thought the capture of my prompt into a drone camera-like video was decent:

You are a drone operator. Create a 30-second video from a drone heading eastbound over the western suburbs of Bismarck, North Dakota, looking east towards the city on an overcast summer evening during the golden hour from an altitude of 200 ft.


Dream Machine also has a paid tier. However, like its paid tier text-to-image brethren from 2023 (who all fared EXTREMELY badly once good text-to-image capabilities became the norm in open and closed source LLMs), time will tell if the pay tier model will work for text and image to video. ⏳

This will be evident in 3 to 5 months once GPT-5, Gemini-2, Mistral-9, Llama 4, et al., all models with enhanced multimodal capabilities, are released. 🚀

Cohere for AI, Argilla, and Hugging Face are collaborating on an Open Science Project to enhance multilingual model evaluations. The project focuses on the widely-used MMLU dataset, which spans 57 subjects like mathematics, computer science, and law. However, existing translations often miss linguistic and cultural nuances, thus embedding biases. 🤔

To address this, they have annotated a subset of the MMLU test set and are inviting global perspectives to review prompts, highlighting cultural specifics and required knowledge. They have mentioned that insights will help shape future multilingual model evaluations, ensuring they are more inclusive and accurate. 🗺️ 📝 🙌

▶️ To get started go to: CohereForAI/MMLU-evaluation

🌍 They also have an Aya Discord server for collaboration with other participants: https://discord.gg/9gVhdfnQMN
