Apple today released several open source large language models (LLMs) that are designed to run on-device rather than through cloud servers. Called OpenELM (Open-source Efficient Language Models), the LLMs are available on the Hugging Face Hub, a community for sharing AI code. As outlined in a white paper [PDF], there are eight total OpenELM models, four of which were pre-trained using the CoreNet library, and four instruction tuned models. Apple uses a layer-wise scaling strategy that is...
Future versions of Tesla FSD will likely merge with XAI Grok. While Elon Musk has expressed concerns about building too much of his new AI ideas into Tesla unless he has 25% voting control, the need to make a competitive AI will force Tesla FSD to work with XAI Grok. This can be structured in
