Ai2

Our people are our biggest strength — and we just got stronger! We're overjoyed to welcome Sewon Min and Tim Dettmers to the Ai2 team. Their expertise and ingenuity will help us push the boundaries of AI even further. Welcome aboard 🛳️

After months of behind-the-scenes research, interviews, and labors of love, we’re delighted to debut Ai2’s new brand and website today. What we learned is that Ai2 is audacious but disciplined, grounded in science while being open and accessible with the purpose of building breakthrough AI to solve the world’s biggest problems. 🩷 We’re all of these things, and now, we come with a new look. 😎 Explore the evolution and follow along for more: https://lnkd.in/gV3-GwXv

💪 We must unite to address threats to nature. Gundi, a free “universal adaptor” from our EarthRanger team & others, integrates data and technologies so that conservationists can use the best tools they need to protect wildlife.

When should AI not comply? That's what our latest work aims to propose — in addition to safety considerations, Faeze Brahman, Sachin Kumar & their collaborators outline the taxonomy of model noncompliance, and offer CoCoNot, a resource for training and evaluating models’ noncompliance.

AI models are more integrated into our daily lives than ever before — making user safety paramount. Introducing AI2's Safety Toolkit, featuring red-teaming framework, a high-quality, large-scale safety training dataset, and content safety moderation tools. #AISafety

It’s time to talk about open — our CEO Ali Farhadi joined open model builders Jonathan Frankle from Databricks, Laurens van der Maaten from AI at Meta, and Jon Turow from Madrona to talk about the future of open-source AI, which is a set of models and artifacts made publicly available to modify and reuse.

Data toxicity can lead to harmful model outputs — and since most evaluations focus on English datasets, we’re underestimating multilingual toxicity in state-of-the-art LLMs. Our team partnered with researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and University of Virginia to highlight this gap.

Our CEO Ali Farhadi joined Ina Fried at the Axios AI+ Summit in New York this week, speaking about openness in research, how to build trust between AI and the public, and more. Watch the entire conversation here: https://bit.ly/AliAxios

“Without actual openness, it’s hard to be scientific about the evaluation.” Ali Farhadi weighed in on openness and the future of AI at the Axios AI+ Summit. Read more about why we believe in a truly open-source future for AI: https://lnkd.in/gVCvneug
