  • “We envision other types of more complex guardrails should exist in the future, especially for agentic use cases, e.g., the modern Internet is loaded with safeguards that range from web browsers that detect unsafe websites to ML-based spam classifiers for phishing attempts,” the research paper says.

    The thing is folks know how the safeguards for the ‘modern internet’ actually work and are generally straightforward code. Where as LLMs are kinda the opposite, some mathematical model that spews out answers. Product managers thinking it can be corralled to behave in a specific, incorruptible way, I suspect will be disappointed.





  • The A16 Bionic has as Neural Engine capable of 17 TOPS but 6GB of RAM.

    The M1 had a Neural Engine capable of just 11 TOPS but all M1 chips have at least 8GB of RAM.

    So the model could run on an A16 Bionic if it had 8GB of RAM as it has 54% more TOPS than the M1, but it only has 6GB of RAM. Apple have clearly decided that a model small enough to fit just wouldn’t give good enough results.

    Maybe as research progresses they’ll find a way to make it work with a model with fewer parameters but I’m not going to hold my breath.
