EXTENDING WEB APPLICATIONS WITH WEBASSEMBLY AND PYTHON

This article discusses how Python programs can be run within an application that uses a WebAssembly runtime, allowing for bi-directional communication between the two. WebAssembly is a sandboxed environment for extending applications, allowing for secure and portable code to run within the same process as the main application. Python can be interpreted by a WebAssembly module, and this article presents a sample application that guides developers on how to implement bindings for bi-directional communication between the WebAssembly host and the Python code.

REACT-LIFECYCLE-VISUALIZER

React-Lifecycle-Visualizer is a real-time visualizer for React lifecycle methods.To trace a component, devs just have to apply the higher-order component `traceLifecycle` to it, and all its lifecycle-method calls will show up in a replayable log component. This is useful for debugging complex React applications.

LLM

llm is a Rust ecosystem made of libraries that help in performing inference on large language models. It is based on llama.cpp. llm includes a wrapper around llm-base and supported models and a CLI application that offers a user-friendly interface for running inference on the supported models. Inference can currently only be done on CPU, but the ecosystem aims to also include GPU inference in the future. llm supports GPT-2, GPT-J, LLaMA, GPT-NeoX, StableLM, Dolly v2, and BLOOMZ.

TURNING A FOUNDATION MODEL INTO A CHAT ASSISTANTS

Star coder is an excellent new model from the big code project that can write 86 different programming languages. This post explores how to prompt the model to participate in conversations, how to use chat markup language, and even how to tune these models. Lots of interesting tidbits here for groups interested in taking an open source model and fine tuning it for their own chat-based use cases.

CHATBOTS

This research introduces InternChat (iChat), a tool that combines powerful chatbots like ChatGPT with non-verbal cues like pointing movements, allowing users to directly manipulate images or videos. By adding gestures to language, iChat makes communication with chatbots more efficient and accurate, especially for tasks involving complex visual scenarios, making it a promising development for future interactive systems.

ENHANCING LANGUAGE MODELS WITH FEDERATED INSTRUCTION TUNING

The study introduces a new method, Federated Instruction Tuning (FedIT), to train powerful language models like ChatGPT and GPT-4, by learning from many different devices' data without violating privacy. This makes the models better at understanding and responding naturally in diverse situations, and the researchers have also created a tool, 'Shepherd', to help others use this approach easily.

FRUGALGPT: COST-EFFECTIVE APPROACHES FOR UTILIZING LLMS

This study examines the high costs associated with using popular language model APIs like GPT-4, ChatGPT, and J1-Jumbo, and suggests three strategies for reducing these costs: prompt adaptation, LLM approximation, and LLM cascade. The research introduces FrugalGPT, an efficient application of the LLM cascade strategy that can match the performance of top language models at a fraction of the cost or even improve their accuracy.

SUR-ADAPTER: AN UPGRADE FOR TEXT-TO-IMAGE MODELS

This study introduces a new way, called SUR-adapter, to help computer programs called diffusion models turn simple descriptions into detailed images. By teaching these models to understand stories better and using a new dataset of over 57,000 samples, the researchers made the models better at creating high-quality images from simple descriptions, making them easier and more fun to use.

UNCERTAINTY

Over the past few days, order book sleuths have been reporting some anomalies in flows and bid/ask spreads. Yesterday, Bloomberg reported that market-making firms Jane Street Group and Jump Crypto are winding down their market-making activities in the US due to increased regulatory scrutiny. Jane Street is also scaling back its global crypto operations, while Jump Crypto is focusing on international expansion. Both firms continue to make markets in crypto but on a smaller scale. These moves explain the thin order books and abnormalities we’ve been seeing. The regulatory crackdown, which targets trading platforms, stablecoin issuers, and brokers, has also prompted several other crypto companies to consider relocating operations to international financial hubs like Dubai, Singapore, and Hong Kong.
