Inflection AI just announced Inflection-2, a HUGE new 175 billion parameter language model.

Capabilities exceed Google and Meta’s top models and “is very close” to catching GPT-4.

The CEO also said the company’s next model will be 10x larger in six months.

Inflection AI, the innovative startup behind the conversational chatbot Pi, has recently unveiled a new AI model, Inflection-2, claiming superior performance over popular models developed by Google and Meta. According to a recent Forbes report, this new model is rapidly gaining attention for its potential to rival OpenAI’s GPT-4.

A team of researchers headed by Prof. Wang Qun at the University of Science and Technology of China, under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has achieved a breakthrough in the theoretical understanding of vector meson spin physics, focusing on the unique properties of ϕ mesons produced during collisions between gold nuclei.

Their findings published in the journal Physical Review Letters

Physical Review Letters (PRL) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the American Physical Society. It is one of the most prestigious and influential journals in physics, with a high impact factor and a reputation for publishing groundbreaking research in all areas of physics, from particle physics to condensed matter physics and beyond. PRL is known for its rigorous standards and short article format, with a maximum length of four pages, making it an important venue for rapid communication of new findings and ideas in the physics community.

Scientists using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope just made a breakthrough discovery in revealing how planets are made. By observing water vapor in protoplanetary disks, Webb confirmed a physical process involving the drifting of ice-coated solids from the outer regions of the disk into the rocky-planet zone.

Theories have long proposed that icy pebbles forming in the cold, outer regions of protoplanetary disks — the same area where comets originate in our solar system — should be the fundamental seeds of planet formation. The main requirement of these theories is that pebbles should drift inward toward the star due to friction in the gaseous disk, delivering both solids and water to planets.

A fundamental prediction of this theory is that as icy pebbles enter into the warmer region within the “snowline” — where ice transitions to vapor — they should release large amounts of cold water vapor. This is exactly what Webb observed.
