I recently started an AI-focused educational newsletter, that already has over 150,000 subscribers. TheSequence is a no-BS (meaning no hype, no news etc) ML-oriented newsletter that takes 5 minutes to read. The goal is to keep you up to date with machine learning projects, research papers and concepts. Please give it a try by subscribing below:

In recent months, we have seen a crazy proliferation of artificial intelligence(AI) applied to consumer and business applications. Not a week goes by in which we don’t hear about new applications leveraging models like GPT-3, DALL-E or Stable Diffusion in all sorts of interesting scenarios. From an outsider’s perspective, it might seem that all AI applications are relying on versions of the same few models. The AI community already found a new term to refer to this phenomena: foundation models. Remember that term because is likely to unleash a new era of innovation in AI applications…
