Stanford released the new AI Index Report. Some of the key takeaways are:

  • The Industry takes over and leaves academia behind.
  • Scientific research is accelerating thanks to AI.
  • Misuse and use of Ai are rapidly growing.
  • Demand for AI-related skills is growing
  • Companies that use AI are leaving behind those who do not.
  • China is the most active country in machine learning and also the most positive about AI.
  • The USA is building the most powerful AI systems.

The report sadly does not include GPT-4 and other newer results. I still highly recommend looking into the report. They did a great job capturing some key trends in a very clear and visual way. For example, the following graph shows the exponential growth of machine learning systems.
