We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!)

On today's episode of Discover Daily:We explore Microsoft's development of MAI-1, a massive 500 billion parameter AI model aimed at competing with OpenAI's GPT-4 and Google's AI offerings. Led by AI pioneer Mustafa Suleyman after Microsoft acquired his startup Inflection AI, MAI-1 represents a major upgrade to Microsoft's language model capabilities.Then, we discuss OpenAI's new partnership with Stack Overflow to enhance its models' technical knowledge. By integrating Stack Overflow's data, OpenAI can provide more accurate coding and programming responses, while Stack Overflow builds its own OverflowAI assistant using OpenAI's language models.In a major medical breakthrough, researchers have identified APOE4 homozygosity as a new genetic cause of Alzheimer's disease. This discovery opens up avenues for more targeted research, clinical trials, and potential gene therapies for this subset of Alzheimer's patients.Shifting gears, we take a look at some of the most iconic fashion moments from the Met Gala over the years, from Rihanna's massive yellow cape gown to Blake Lively's transforming Statue of Liberty dress. Finally, we examine Anduril's Pulsar system - an AI-powered electronic warfare weapon that can rapidly jam devices like drones by disrupting their electromagnetic sensors and adapting to new threats on the fly.**From Perplexity's Discover feed:**Microsoft builds 500b parameter modelhttps://www.perplexity.ai/search/Microsoft-builds-500b-w_EGBxOzQJ22vgyqsJ2f8Q)
