Chinese scientists claimed to have developed the world’s first “brain-like” artificial intelligence large language model similar to ChatGPT, designed to consume less power and work without Nvidia chips.
The AI model, named SpikingBrain1.0, mimics the way the human brain fires only the nerve cells it needs, according to researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Large language models widely in use, like ChatGPT and Meta’s Llama, are dependent on the scaling law, which implies that a reasoning AI system’s performance improves with more data and larger models.
They work by applying a technique called “attention”, in which the AI model looks at all the words in a sentence at once to figure out which ones are most important for predicting the next word.
For instance, if one were to provide ChatGPT a prompt: “The cat went under the bed after seeing the stranger because it was scared”, the AI can process the words at once to understand that the “it” refers to the cat.
