    Meta Expert: Cross-layer meta expert sharing for implementing efficient MoE models

    Meta Expert Model Reduces Redundancy Through Cross-Layer Meta-Expert Sharing, Compared to Layer-Local Expert MoE Models, It Has Lower Parameter Redundancy, Lower Cross-Entropy Loss, and Higher Accuracy on Downstream Tasks. When Activation Amount and Expert Granularity Are Fixed, This Model Achieves Performance Comparable to Vanilla MoE Using Only 70-80% of Experts, Significantly Enhancing Model Scalability. Theoretical Analysis Shows that Meta-Experts Provide More Flexible Residual Paths, Thus Improving Information Retrieval Efficiency.

    Meta has re-enabled the Muse sharing feature

    After safety researchers reported that public discussion links for Muse were easily discoverable, Meta re-enabled Muse sharing. Researchers said they could find Muse pages, such as an internal revenue review at a marketing company and a loan application from a small business owner. Meta said the issue was with the shared Muse project URLs, which have now been fixed, but previously shared projects have received new URLs, and old links will direct users to the new links.

    Meta's AI may still scrape news websites, legal experts say

    Meta has adjusted its commercial terms to remove language suggesting it can freely train AI models on news websites, but legal experts say these changes are not enough to address their concerns. Meta's new commercial terms allow the use of website content associated with business accounts to 'develop, research,' and 'train' Meta's products, raising legal experts' concerns that Meta may use this clause to scrape the entire content of websites. The revised terms still allow Meta to use scraped content to 'develop any 'commercial product'' , legal experts believe this may still be used to train AI models.

    Meta introduces GenRecs Tokenization to reshape ad recommendations with a stable model vocabulary.

    GenRecs Tokenization enhances conversion rates by 0.35% for advertisers by representing items like ads and products with a stable semantic vocabulary, combined with Meta's Generative Ad Model (GEM) and adaptive ranking model. This technology leverages the world knowledge of pre-trained large models to enable recommendation systems to understand preferences of new items or users with no historical interaction, accelerates learning through shared concepts, achieves cross-activity transfer, and improves performance as large model scale increases, forming a feedback loop for performance improvement.

    Meta is expected to use a completely new commercial TOS to avoid millions of AI licensing fees

    Meta is about to update its terms of service, requiring business accounts to allow Meta to use their linked website content to train AI, not just social media posts. The new terms will take effect on October 30 and are non-negotiable. News publishers may therefore have to pay millions of dollars in licensing fees to Meta, as they are currently fighting with OpenAI over whether AI training constitutes fair use.

    Anthropic's IPO and our shared leap of trust

    Anthropic's 2024 revenue grew to $4.6 billion, but its infrastructure spending last year was $7.3 billion, and it is expected to invest $518 billion in the next decade, of which about 80% are irreversible commitments. The company needs to maintain growth amid fierce competition, increasing political risks, and tighter funding, otherwise its massive financial obligations may trigger systemic risks. The AI industry is facing challenges of declining advantages of cutting-edge models and tightening commercial spending, with companies increasingly preferring to use standard models to improve ROI.
