The call for a 6 month moratorium on making AI progress beyond GPT-4 is a terrible idea. I'm seeing many new applications in education, healthcare, food, ... that'll help many people. Improving GPT-4 will help. Lets balance the huge value AI is creating vs.

I was the first to call Geoff Hinton "Godfather of Deep Learning", which later became "Godfather of AI." Thrilled to see him win the Nobel prize together with John Hopfield for AI. Congrats Geoff and John!

Announcing new open-source Python package: aisuite! This makes it easy for developers to use large language models from multiple providers. When building applications I found it a hassle to integrate with multiple providers.
