Primate Labs launches Geekbench AI 1.0 to benchmark AI Performance

August 18, 2024

Primate Labs Inc. creator of Geekbench, has launch the Geekbench AI, an AI benchmarking tool that measures AI performance. The app measures our devices CPU, GPU, and NPU to determine if it is ready for A.I. and machine learning applications.

Previously called “Geekbench ML,” Geekbench AI 1.0 is the first benchmarking application that will attempt to measure AI performances. Geekbench AI runs ten AI workloads, each with three different data types, giving you a multidimensional picture of on-device AI performance. Using large datasets that mimic real-world AI use cases, both developers and consumers can measure on-device AI performance in just a few minutes with Single Precision, Half Precision, and Quantized scores.

Geekbench AI 1.0 will be available on Android, iOS, Linux, MacOS and Windows. It supports multiple AI Framework like TensorFlow Lite, CoreML, TensorFlow Lite, ONNX and OpenVINO. You can checkout Geekbench AI Workloads documentation to know the tests Geekbench AI uses to measure AI performance.

Google announced Gemini, the largest and most capable AI model

December 7, 2023

Google unveiled its latest and most ambitious artificial intelligence project: Gemini. Touted as the “largest and most capable AI model ever created,” Gemini promises to push the boundaries of what’s possible with machine intelligence, potentially impacting every aspect of our lives.

Gemini’s capabilities are truly impressive. It boasts superior performance on massive multitask language understanding (MMLU) tests, surpassing human experts in areas like math, history, medicine, and ethics. This means Gemini possesses not only vast knowledge but also the ability to reason and solve problems effectively.

Beyond its intellectual prowess, Gemini shines in its multimodal capabilities. It can seamlessly process and understand information from different sources, including text, images, and code. This allows it to perform tasks like explaining complex scientific concepts through interactive simulations or translating languages with nuanced understanding of cultural context.

One of the most exciting aspects of Gemini is its potential to democratize AI. Google plans to offer various sizes and capabilities of the model, making it accessible to a wider range of users and developers. This democratization could lead to an explosion of new AI-powered applications across various industries, transforming fields like education, healthcare, and even creative arts.

Google’s Gemini 1.0, will be available in three different sizes:

  • Gemini Ultra — our largest and most capable model for highly complex tasks.
  • Gemini Pro — our best model for scaling across a wide range of tasks.
  • Gemini Nano — our most efficient model for on-device tasks.

Google acknowledges the ethical concerns surrounding powerful AI and emphasizes its commitment to responsible development. The company has implemented safeguards to ensure Gemini’s safety and prevent misuse.

The launch of Google Gemini marks a significant milestone in the evolution of artificial intelligence. Its capabilities promise to revolutionize the way we interact with technology, solve problems, and understand the world around us. While challenges remain, one thing is clear: the future of AI is bright, and Google Gemini is poised to illuminate the way.
