The number of parameters in #AI is exploding.
A parameter in an AI model is like a connection between neurons in the human brain, a fundamental gear in AI’s learning and decision-making mechanism
2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣3️⃣ was a breakthrough year.
AI models reached the size of a mouse’s brain, about 1 trillion parameters.
🧮 How is this calculated?
Simple math: a mouse’s brain has approximately 100 million neurons, each with about 10,000 synaptic connections (you multiply the two numbers).
📊 The growth trajectory of AI is exponential, with a tenfold increase each year.
Here’s my #prediction:
🐕 2024: AI surpasses the size of a dog’s brain, with about 500 million neurons, total: 5 trillion parameters.
🐒 2025: AI surpasses the size of a chimpanzee’s brain, about 5 billion neurons, total: 50 trillion parameters.
🧑 2026: AI surpasses the human brain, about 100 billion neurons, total: 1 quadrillion parameters.
