Mira Murati's Startup Aims for Human-Centric AI
WIRED AIhigh confidence
Why it matters
- →Murati's approach emphasizes human collaboration, contrasting with the trend of autonomous AI development.
- →Interaction models could lead to more personalized and adaptable AI systems.
- →This shift may influence how AI is integrated into everyday human activities, focusing on empowerment rather than replacement.
Mira Murati, ex-CTO of OpenAI, is leading a new initiative at Thinking Machines Lab to develop AI that collaborates with humans rather than replacing them. Her startup is working on 'interaction models' that can understand and adapt to human communication in real-time, offering a more personalized AI experience. This approach contrasts with other major AI companies focusing on autonomous superintelligence. Although these models are not yet publicly available, they signal a move towards AI systems that prioritize human collaboration and empowerment.

llama.cpp b10955 release addresses heap corruption
The latest release of llama.cpp, b10955, tackles a critical issue of heap corruption by disabling the ggml-cpu precompiled header and fixing CACHE_LINE_SIZE ambiguity. This update ensures consistent CACHE_LINE_SIZE values across C++ kernels and C work-buffer sizing code, preventing heap-buffer-overflow and subsequent crashes. By restoring the natural include order and removing the std::hardware_destructive_interference_size branch, the update makes the value deterministic and include-order independent. This release is a technical fix that stabilizes the runtime environment for developers using llama.cpp.

llama.cpp b10956 release enhances SYCL backend
The latest llama.cpp release, b10956, introduces significant improvements to the SYCL backend, particularly for handling large k values in TOP_K operations. By implementing a radix select method, the update allows for efficient GPU-resident processing, avoiding previous limitations that forced operations to fall back to the CPU. This change enhances performance, especially in scenarios requiring large k values, such as qwen4exp's sparse-attention indexer. The update ensures that operations are more efficient and scalable, providing a notable boost in processing speed without regressing any measured shapes.
