Meta will work with several government contractors such as Microsoft, Amazon, Accenture, IBM, Oracle, Anduril, Booz Allen, and many more. According to Meta, companies like Oracle and Microsoft are already using the Llama model to streamline complicated logistics and planning, track terrorist financing, or strengthen cyber defenses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The news of Meta\u2019s policy change comes after the US government issued a public memo on harnessing AI to achieve national security objectives. Consequently, many developers have protested the use of AI and associated technologies for military purposes. Due to the increasing demand for AI tools for government use, experts believe such contracts will become more common in the future.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Meta Opens Its AI Services To US National Security Agencies","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"meta-opens-its-ai-services-to-us-national-security-agencies","to_ping":"","pinged":"\nhttps:\/\/about.fb.com\/news\/2024\/11\/open-source-ai-america-global-security\/","post_modified":"2024-11-18 03:17:31","post_modified_gmt":"2024-11-17 16:17:31","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=19462","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

\u201cToday we\u2019re announcing an expansion of our collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS), deepening our work together to develop and deploy advanced AI systems\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, reads the official blog post on Anthropic\u2019s website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amazon first partnered with Anthropic in September 2023 in a deal initially worth $4 billion. As part of the agreement,  Amazon Web Service adopted Anthropic\u2019s Claude family of large language models (LLM). In exchange, AWS became the primary cloud service provider for Anthropic. According to Anthropic, this latest expansion will deepen their strategic collaboration to develop and deploy advanced AI systems. The total cost of this partnership now sits at $8 billion as of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AWS will now also be Anthropic's main training partner. The AI company will utilize AWS Trainium and Inferentia chips to build its foundation models. The aim is to extract the maximum output from these chips to train the most advanced AI systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The companies will also give AWS customers early access to exclusive customization options for a limited period.

American tech company Microsoft recently announced an update to its Azure AI Studio platform. This new platform will be called Microsoft Azure AI Foundry, and the company is looking to expand its AI strategies for developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

American tech company Meta, the creators of FaceBook, has announced its plans to share AI technologies with US government agencies and defense contractors. This includes Llama, Meta\u2019s largest open-source large language model (LLM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The news was confirmed on Monday, with the company stating in a blog post<\/a>, \u201cWe are pleased to confirm that we are also making Llama available to U.S. government agencies, including those working on defense and national security applications and private sector partners supporting their work.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The news of Meta\u2019s policy change comes after the US government issued a public memo on harnessing AI to achieve national security objectives.

In 2023, OpenAI, along with Microsoft, was subject to another case filed by The New York Times. This latest lawsuit is demanding up to $20,000 Canadian dollars per article claimed to be violating copyright. This could potentially add up to billions of dollars in damages.

American tech company Microsoft recently announced an update to its Azure AI Studio platform. This new platform will be called Microsoft Azure AI Foundry, and the company is looking to expand its AI strategies for developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company states in a blog post about this new development, \u201cAzure AI Foundry is a trusted platform that empowers developers to drive innovation and shape the future with AI in a safe, secure, and responsible way.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft introduced Azure AI studios in November 2023 to offer developers a wide range of AI solutions. The services included AI-powered applications to help developers build their own generative AI solutions. According to Microsoft, Azure AI Foundry can \u201cfacilitate scalability for transforming proof of concepts into full-fledged production applications.\u201d It also allows users to monitor and upgrade the content they build continuously. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

American tech company Meta, the creators of FaceBook, has announced its plans to share AI technologies with US government agencies and defense contractors. This includes Llama, Meta\u2019s largest open-source large language model (LLM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The news was confirmed on Monday, with the company stating in a blog post<\/a>, \u201cWe are pleased to confirm that we are also making Llama available to U.S. government agencies, including those working on defense and national security applications and private sector partners supporting their work.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenAI is a San Francisco-based AI company famous for the creation of Chat GPT, an AI-powered chatbot. To train such software, companies require large amounts of data, most of which they acquire from the Internet. This has led to multiple claims of copyright infringement from different parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, OpenAI, along with Microsoft, was subject to another case filed by The New York Times. This latest lawsuit is demanding up to $20,000 Canadian dollars per article claimed to be violating copyright. This could potentially add up to billions of dollars in damages. The companies also want an injection that would prevent OpenAI from using their intellectual properties in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One spokesperson from OpenAI provided a statement to The New York Times, stating \u201cWe have not yet had the opportunity to review the allegations. Our models are trained on publicly available data, grounded in fair use and related international copyright principles that are fair for creators and support innovation\u201d.<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n","post_title":"Top Canadian Media Outlets Sue OpenAI In Copyright Case Potentially Worth Billions","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"top-canadian-media-outlets-sue-openai-in-copyright-case-potentially-worth-billions","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-12-05 00:49:19","post_modified_gmt":"2024-12-04 13:49:19","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=19818","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":19759,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-12-03 04:00:54","post_date_gmt":"2024-12-02 17:00:54","post_content":"\n

Amazon has announced a $4 billion investment in AI company Anthropic to facilitate the development of generative AI models. This is the second significant commitment between Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Anthropic since 2023. Both companies released separate statements confirming the news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToday we\u2019re announcing an expansion of our collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS), deepening our work together to develop and deploy advanced AI systems\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, reads the official blog post on Anthropic\u2019s website<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amazon first partnered with Anthropic in September 2023 in a deal initially worth $4 billion. As part of the agreement,  Amazon Web Service adopted Anthropic\u2019s Claude family of large language models (LLM). In exchange, AWS became the primary cloud service provider for Anthropic. According to Anthropic, this latest expansion will deepen their strategic collaboration to develop and deploy advanced AI systems. The total cost of this partnership now sits at $8 billion as of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
