FlashAttention 3, PaliGemma, OpenAI's 5 Levels to Superintelligence
FlashAttention-3 introduces fast and accurate attention optimized for H100 GPUs, advancing native FP8 training. PaliGemma, a versatile 3B Vision-Language Model (VLM) combining a SigLIP-So400m ViT encoder with the Gemma-2B language model, emphasizes a prefix-LM architecture for improved image-query interaction. OpenAI reveals a framework on levels of superintelligence, signaling progress toward Level 2 and highlighting internal safety disagreements. On Reddit, NuminaMath 7B, fine-tuned from DeepSeekMath-7B, wins the AI Math Olympiad by solving 29 problems using iterative supervised fine-tuning and tool-integrated reasoning. Open-source LLMs like CodeLlama-34b and WizardCoder-Python-34B-V1.0 are closing the coding performance gap with closed models such as ChatGPT-3.5.
