A language model bigger than GPT-3 has arrived with a bold ambition: freeing AI from Big Tech’s clutches. Named BLOOM, the large language model (LLM) promises a similar performance to Silicon Valley’s leading systems — but with a radically different approach to access. While tech giants tend to keep their vaunted LLMs hidden from the public, BLOOM is available to anyone for free. It’s also multilingual — unlike Google’s LaMDA and OpenAI’s GPT-3 — an unusual feature in an English-dominated field. These features could democratize access to technology that’s set to make a deep impact on society. Powerful AI models can…

This article is part of our series that explores the business of artificial intelligence Since GPT-2, there has been much excitement around the applications of large language models. And in the past few years, we’ve seen LLMs used for many exciting tasks, such as writing articles, designing websites, creating images, and even writing code. But as I have argued before, there’s a wide gap between showing a new technology do something cool and using the same technology to create a successful product with a workable business model. Microsoft, I think, just launched the first real LLM product with the public…
