Cathie Wood’s ArkInvest Praises Opensource AI

Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest recently shared insights into the evolving landscape of AI models, with a focus on open-source versus closed systems. Notably, the research presents a chart highlighting the absolute log error of performance on Massive Multitask Language Understanding (MMLU) benchmarking.
