This week brings significant AI news. ## OpenAI OpenAI has unveiled its new o1 series models, `o1-preview` and `o1-mini`, which excel at complex reasoning tasks. These models allocate extra computational resources to thinking processes before generating responses. Here are some valuable resources to learn more about these two models: * [Introducing OpenAI o1-preview](https://openai.com/index/introducing-openai-o1-preview/) * [Learning to Reason with LLMs](https://openai.com/index/learning-to-reason-with-llms/) * [Let's Verify Step by Step](https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.20050) I've also written a note with key information about this release.

This experimental tool harnesses the power of language models combined with existing content to generate critical insights faster. It functions as a virtual research assistant, capable of summarizing facts, explaining complex ideas, and brainstorming new connections—all based on user-selected sources. Additionally, it offers an audio feature where two AI hosts engage in a lively "deep dive" discussion about your sources at the click of a button. To learn more about this product, check out these resources: * [NotebookLM now lets you listen to a conversation about your sources](https://blog.google/technology/ai/notebooklm-audio-overviews/) * [Introducing Notebook LM](https://blog.google/technology/ai/notebooklm-google-ai/) ## Anthropic Anthropic has released their latest course on LLM prompt evaluations. These evaluations help ensure prompts are production-ready by quickly identifying edge cases and pinpointing where prompts are most effective. You can find the course on GitHub here: * https://github.com/anthropics/courses/tree/master/prompt_evaluations ## Mistral Mistral released following things in the past week: * A free tier on la Platform * A pricing update over the entire family of models * A new, better Mistral Small * Free vision capabilities on le Chat with Pixtral 12B Following is the link to the information: * https://mistral.ai/news/september-24-release/
