Secure, AI-Powered Key Management Gives Organizations Complete Control over Security and Access, Safeguarding Their Intellectual Property

‍

_{OKLAHOMA CITY – Nov 19, 2024}

‍ARC today announced KeyGuard HE, a secure, enterprise-controlled AI solution that lets companies reap the benefits of AI without risking their intellectual property being used for training and inference by Large Language Models (LLMs) from public cloud AI solutions like ChatGPT, Gemini, Anthropic, as well as others. 

With experts warning of the perils of sharing confidential or even personal information with AI chatbots, security conscious enterprises are banning employees from using public AI tools for fear of losing the intellectual property they have created, to say nothing of the resources invested.

AI expert Mike Wooldridge, a professor of AI at Oxford University, told The Guardian last year, “you should assume that anything you type into ChatGPT is just going to be fed directly into future versions of ChatGPT.” And that can be everything from computer code to trade secrets. 

With KeyGuard HE, corporate users can experience the power of AI with confidence that they hold complete control over the keys to security, and that no untrusted vendor, or anyone else can ever access or view that data without permission,” said TJ Dunham, Founder & CEO of ARC. “The model can’t leak your data, as it is encrypted and customers can revoke key access at any time. KeyGuard HE empowers users to manage their private keys with full transparency and trust by using blockchain-based smart contracts to provide verifiable proof-of-actions.

‍

KHE Use Cases:

• Financial institutions: With KHE, financial institutions can perform real-time encrypted data analysis, leveraging AI models for trend analysis, fraud detection, and customer insights without exposing sensitive financial records or violating compliance regulations. 
• Hospitals and health care: With KHE, hospitals and research institutions can securely share and analyze encrypted patient data across organizations, enabling AI-driven medical research and patient diagnostics, all while complying with strict privacy laws like HIPAA. 
• Enterprises: With KHE enterpriseorganizations can track and audit their supply chain activities using smart contracts and KHE.

‍

Key Features of KeyGuard HE:

• Data Privacy at Scale–the combination of HE and LLMs–allows large-scale computations to be performed securely, without compromising on privacy or security.
• Homomorphic and CKKS Encryptionenables computations on encrypted data, ensuring privacy throughout the process. 
• LLM Integration allows users to plug and play any AI model and encrypt it and its responses in seconds.  
• Public encrypted provides trustless user- control for key management, and validation for key deletion or modification requests. 
• Enhanced User Transparency allows every user action to be traceable and verified, ensuring integrity and trust in the system.

Mustafa Suleyman, the CEO of Microsoft AI, is no stranger to the complex landscape of artificial intelligence. As a prominent figure in the field, he has observed the rapid development of AI and remains both hopeful and cautious. In a recent interview with  Steven Bartlett, Diary Of A CEO, Suleyman shared many thoughtful insights he also shared in his book “The Coming Wave: Technology, Power, and the Twenty-First Century's Greatest Dilemma”.

‍

Speaking on the future of AI, Suleyman shares bold predictions on how AI could reshape society while also sounding alarms about the dangers of unchecked advancement. He believes that AI, if mismanaged, could lead to significant risks, from power consolidation among a few actors to a race for dominance that ignores the broader implications of safety and ethics. Suleyman’s solutions advocate for a comprehensive, cooperative approach, blending technological optimism with stringent regulatory foresight.

‍

Predictions: The Dawn of a New Scientific Era

Suleyman envisions an era of unprecedented scientific and technological growth driven by artificial intelligence. He refers to AI as an “inflection point,” emphasizing that its capabilities will soon bring humanity to the brink of a monumental transformation. In the coming 15 to 20 years, Suleyman foresees that the power of AI to produce knowledge and scientific breakthroughs will drive a paradigm shift across industries, reshaping fields from healthcare to energy.

‍

“We’re moving toward a world where AI can create knowledge at a marginal cost,” Suleyman says, underscoring the economic and social impact that this development could have on a global scale. According to him, the revolutionary aspect of AI lies in its potential to democratize knowledge, making intelligence and data-driven solutions accessible to “hundreds of millions, if not billions, of people.” As this accessibility increases, Suleyman predicts, societies will become “smarter, more productive, and more creative,” fueling what he describes as a true renaissance of innovation.

‍

In this future, Suleyman envisions AI assisting with complex scientific discoveries that might have otherwise taken decades to achieve. For instance, he highlights that AI could speed up the development of drugs and vaccines, making healthcare more accessible and affordable worldwide. Beyond healthcare, he imagines a world where AI assists in reducing the high costs associated with energy production and food supply chains. “AI has the power to solve some of the biggest challenges we face today, from energy costs to sustainable food production,” he asserts. This optimistic view places AI at the heart of global problem-solving, a force that could potentially mitigate critical resource constraints and improve quality of life for millions.

‍

Risks: Proliferation, Race Conditions, and the Misuse of Power

While Suleyman is enthusiastic about AI’s potential, he acknowledges the accompanying risks, which he describes as both immediate and far-reaching. His concerns primarily revolve around the accessibility of powerful AI tools and the potential for their misuse by malicious actors or unregulated entities. Suleyman cautions against a world where AI tools, once they reach maturity, could fall into the wrong hands. “We’re talking about technologies that can be weaponized quickly and deployed with massive impact,” he warns, emphasizing the importance of limiting access to prevent catastrophic misuse.

‍

One of Suleyman’s significant concerns is what he calls the “race condition.” He argues that as nations and corporations realize the vast economic and strategic advantages AI offers, they may accelerate their development programs to stay ahead of competitors. This race for dominance, he suggests, mirrors the Cold War nuclear arms race, where safety often took a backseat to competitive gain. “The problem with a race condition is that it becomes self-perpetuating,” he explains. Once the competitive mindset takes hold, it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to apply the brakes. Nations and corporations may feel compelled to push forward, fearing that any hesitation could result in losing their competitive edge.

‍

Moreover, Suleyman is concerned about how AI could consolidate power among a few key players. As the technology matures, there is a risk that control over powerful AI models will reside with a handful of corporations or nation-states. This concentration of power could result in a digital divide, where access to AI’s benefits is unevenly distributed, and those without access are left behind. Suleyman points to the potential for AI to be used not only as a tool for innovation but as a means of control, surveillance, and even repression. “If we don’t carefully consider who controls these technologies, we risk creating a world where a few actors dictate the future for all,” he warns.

‍

Potential Scenarios of AI Misuse

Suleyman’s fears are not unfounded, given recent developments in autonomous weapon systems and AI-driven cyber-attacks. He points to scenarios where AI could enable the development of autonomous drones capable of identifying and targeting individuals without human oversight. Such capabilities, he argues, would lower the threshold for warfare, allowing conflicts to escalate quickly and with minimal accountability. “The problem with AI-driven weapons is that they reduce the cost and complexity of launching attacks, making conflict more accessible to anyone with the right tools,” Suleyman explains. The prospect of rogue states or non-state actors acquiring these tools only amplifies his concerns.

‍

Another potential misuse of AI involves cyber warfare. Suleyman highlights that as AI-driven systems become more sophisticated, so do cyber threats. Hackers could potentially deploy AI to exploit vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure, from energy grids to financial systems, creating a digital battlefield that is increasingly difficult to defend. “AI has the potential to turn cyber warfare into something far more dangerous, where attacks can be orchestrated at a scale and speed that no human can match,” he says, advocating for a global framework to mitigate these risks.

‍

Solutions: The Precautionary Principle and Global Cooperation

Suleyman believes that the solution to these challenges lies in adopting a precautionary approach. He advocates for slowing down AI development in certain areas until robust safety protocols and containment measures can be established. This precautionary principle, he argues, may seem counterintuitive in a world where innovation is often seen as inherently positive. However, Suleyman stresses that this approach is necessary to prevent technology from outpacing society’s ability to control it. “For the first time in history, we need to prioritize containment over innovation,” he asserts, suggesting that humanity’s survival could depend on it.

‍

One of Suleyman’s proposals is to increase taxation on AI companies to fund societal adjustments and safety research. He argues that as AI automates jobs, there will be an urgent need for retraining programs to help workers transition to new roles. These funds could also support research into the ethical and social implications of AI, ensuring that as the technology advances, society is prepared to manage its impact. Suleyman acknowledges the potential downside—that companies might relocate to tax-favorable regions—but he believes that with proper global coordination, this risk can be mitigated. “It’s about creating a fair system that encourages responsibility over short-term profit,” he explains.

‍

Suleyman is a strong advocate for international cooperation, especially regarding AI containment and regulation. He calls for a unified global approach to managing AI, much like the international agreements that govern nuclear technology. By establishing a set of global standards, Suleyman believes that the risks of proliferation and misuse can be minimized. “AI is a technology that transcends borders. We can’t manage it through isolated policies,” he says, underscoring the importance of a collaborative, cross-border framework that aligns the interests of multiple stakeholders.

‍

The Role of AI Companies in Self-Regulation

In addition to international regulations, Suleyman believes that AI companies themselves have a responsibility to act ethically. He emphasizes the need for companies to build ethical frameworks within their own operations, creating internal policies that prioritize safety and transparency. Suleyman suggests that companies should implement internal review boards or ethics committees to oversee AI projects, ensuring that their potential impact is thoroughly assessed before they are deployed. “Companies need to take a proactive approach. We can’t rely solely on governments to regulate this,” he says, acknowledging that corporate self-regulation is a critical component of the broader containment strategy.

‍

Suleyman also advocates for transparency in AI development. While he understands the competitive nature of the tech industry, he argues that certain aspects of AI research should be shared openly, particularly when it comes to safety protocols and best practices. By creating a culture of transparency, he believes that companies can foster trust among the public and reduce the likelihood of misuse. “Transparency is key. It’s the only way to ensure that AI development is held accountable,” he says, noting that companies must strike a balance between proprietary innovation and public responsibility.

‍

Education and Public Awareness: Preparing Society for an AI-Driven Future

Suleyman is adamant that preparing society for AI’s future role requires more than just regulatory and corporate oversight—it demands public education. He argues that as AI becomes an integral part of society, people need to be informed about its capabilities, risks, and ethical considerations. Suleyman calls for educational reforms that integrate AI and digital literacy into the curriculum, enabling future generations to navigate an AI-driven world effectively. “We need to prepare people for what’s coming. This isn’t just about technology; it’s about societal transformation,” he explains.

‍

Furthermore, Suleyman believes that fostering a culture of AI literacy will help to democratize the technology, reducing the digital divide between those who understand AI and those who don’t. He envisions a world where individuals are empowered to make informed decisions about how AI impacts their lives and work, rather than passively accepting the technology’s influence. “It’s essential that everyone—not just the tech community—understands what AI can and cannot do,” he says, advocating for broader public engagement on these issues.

‍

A Balanced Approach to AI Development

Suleyman’s insights into the future of AI highlight the delicate balance between innovation and caution. On one hand, he is optimistic about AI’s potential to address some of humanity’s most pressing challenges, from healthcare to sustainability. On the other, he is acutely aware of the dangers that come with such powerful technology. Suleyman’s vision is one of responsible AI development, where the benefits are maximized, and the risks are carefully managed through cooperation, regulation, and public education.

‍

As he continues to lead Microsoft AI, Suleyman remains a pivotal voice in the conversation around AI’s future. His advocacy for a precautionary approach and global cooperation serves as a reminder that while AI holds immense promise, it also comes with profound responsibilities. For Suleyman, the ultimate goal is clear: to create a world where AI not only serves humanity but does so in a way that is safe, ethical, and sustainable.

An Interview with Carolina Thompson, Co-founder of Thompson Real Estate and the former Director of Sustainability Strategy and Initiatives at Freddie Mac

‍
In an era of heightened environmental awareness, Carolina Thompson stands at the intersection of sustainability and real estate, where she's pushing boundaries through her own business initiatives and extensive industry experience. As the co- founder of Thompson Real Estate Consulting and a former sustainability leader at Freddie Mac, Thompson has a rich background in environmental strategy, sustainable finance, and real estate, which she now channels into creating sustainable housing. Thompson's journey reflects a blend of practical ambition and a deep understanding of the complex relationships between real estate, sustainability, and market forces.

“I think sustainability in real estate is more than a trend; it's about creating efficient, resilient homes that meet both energy and comfort needs,” Thompson asserts. Now focusing on the Home Energy Rating System (HERS), she explains that homes with lower ratings are more efficient, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and are cost-effective in the long run. This efficiency, she notes, comes from retrofitting old homes with updated insulation, HVAC systems, and windows, as well as building new, eco-friendly units. “When a home is HERS-rated, it means a third-party has assessed its energy efficiency," she says. "HERS rated homes with lower scores save on utilities and can reduce stress on the grid, which ultimately translates to lower greenhouse gas emissions.”

Her consultancy firm follows a “buy and rent” model, focusing on eco-conscious renters who prioritize sustainability. “It's about providing renters with a choice,” she says. “They may not be ready to buy, but they can choose to live in homes that meet high energy efficiency standards, knowing they’re contributing to sustainability.” She believes that these properties attract a unique tenant who appreciates the blend of safety, comfort, and environmental responsibility.

Reflecting on her time at Freddie Mac (Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation), Thompson describes the transition to sustainability as gradual but impactful. “Freddie Mac was always doing social and governance work,” she recalls, “but the environmental piece was where the real effort went.” Thompson contributed to leading the organization in developing initiatives and protocols that addressed both environmental and social governance, setting a benchmark for sustainable finance. Her team was tasked with reporting on various ESG topics to include climate-related risks, especially as they may impact Freddie Mac’s portfolio, as well as the physical properties the company managed nationwide. “We needed to tell the climate story from a collateral and investor risk perspective,” she says. “It wasn't just about how we handle  the purchase of loans and securitizations; it was about how these properties withstand extreme climate conditions.”

Sustainability reporting, however, presented its own challenges. Investors demanded transparency, but the standards were varied and complex. “There are so many standards – SASB, GRI, ICMA – it can be overwhelming,” she admits. Thompson and the Freddie Mac team ultimately chose the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the International Capital Market Association (ICMA) standards, which provided a framework for measuring sustainability that aligned with U.S. and European markets. “At the time leadership didn't want to be the leader in an ever evolving space,” she recalls. “Our leadership wanted to stick to the most fact-based, third-party vetted reporting, and that approach was successful.”

Beyond real estate, Thompson recognizes the emerging role of artificial intelligence (AI) in sustainability, though she admits there is a trust gap. “Artificial intelligence was identified in our materiality assessment; it’s impossible to avoid,” she says. “But internally, there was reluctance to share information that may put consumer data at risk. Tech teams are careful about what they share because of security concerns.” Despite these challenges, she sees AI as a powerful tool for capturing data on home energy efficiency, monitoring renewable energy outputs, and analyzing the sustainability impact of various upgrades in both single-family and multifamily real estate.

The push toward green building also brings up economic factors, with Thompson noting federal incentives such as the Inflation Reduction Act, which benefits both consumers and builders. “Federal and state incentives really help,” she says. “For example, if you’re a builder and your home is Energy Star-certified, there’s a significant subsidy. For the consumer, it’s a win too – it can boost the home’s value.” Freddie Mac research suggests that energy efficient certifications can increase home value by three to five percent, making it easier for eco-conscious homeowners to justify the investment.

However, Thompson is candid about the broader challenges of the sustainability movement, particularly around issues of “greenwashing,” where companies may promote their eco-friendly credentials more aggressively than their actions justify. “Sometimes I felt it wasn’t genuine,” she reflects. “A lot of energy went into measuring emissions when more investment could have gone to initiatives to reduce those emissions.” Thompson sees the disconnect between idealism and reality, suggesting that greater emphasis on practical solutions would yield stronger environmental impact.

As the conversation turns to generational wealth transfer and shifting priorities, Thompson notes that millennials, often more environmentally conscious, are starting to influence investment decisions. “Millennials want to know where their money is going,” she observes. “They’re outspoken and care about sustainability, which pushes investment managers to provide more data and transparency.” This influence, she believes, is driving large investment firms toward sustainable initiatives, especially as millennials are set to inherit significant wealth in the coming years.

In wrapping up, Thompson offers advice for those in other sectors facing the challenge of implementing sustainability. “Start by benchmarking. Understand what your competition is doing and where your company’s appetite for transparency and innovation lies,” she advises. “Not everyone needs to be leading, but that doesn’t mean you can’t establish one or two ambitious goals.” By setting realistic goals and understanding where her organization stood within the industry, Thompson was able to help develop a sustainability strategy that balanced growth with responsible practices.

‍

‍

Her journey in sustainable real estate is far from over, as she continues to develop her consultancy with a mission that blends eco-conscious property investment with data-driven decision-making. “I don’t just want to help people buy/sell a property and move on,” she says. “I want to understand their goals, whether it’s a first-time home buyer, military transfer or investor that sees the value in investing in efficient properties. Nearly 40% of global carbon dioxide comes from the real estate sector, with AI we can find new ways to leverage data to improve positive environmental impact.”

‍

‍

As Thompson reflects on her goals, her commitment to sustainability and innovation in real estate remains clear. In a world where climate concerns are increasingly at the forefront, her work demonstrates that practical, sustainable choices can make a significant difference – one home at a time.

For example, it can analyze static images, handwritten notes, and graphs, and it can generate code for websites in HTML and CSS. Claude can turn images into structured JSON data and debug complex code bases. Additionally, it can translate between various languages in real-time, practice grammar, and create multilingual content.

iii. Llama3

Meta Llama 3 [5], represents one of the AI assistants designed to help users learn, create content, and connect with others. Two models of Llama 3 were released, featuring 8 billion and 70 billion parameters, supporting a wide range of use cases. Llama 3 demonstrates state-of-the-art performance on industry benchmarks and offers improved reasoning and code generation. It uses a decoder-only transformer architecture, featuring a tokenizer with a 128K vocabulary and grouped query attention across 8B and 70B sizes. The models are trained on sequences of 8,192 tokens to ensure efficient language encoding and inference.

iv. Gemini

Gemini [6], introduced by Google, offers different models for various use cases, ranging from data centres to on-device tasks. These models are natively multimodal and capable of understanding and combining text, code, images, audio, and video files. This capability enables the generation of code based on various inputs and the performance of complex reasoning tasks. The new Gemini models, Gemini Pro and Ultra versions, outperform previous models in terms of pretraining and post-training improvements. Their performance is also superior in reasoning and code generation. Importantly, Gemini models undergo extensive safety testing, including bias assessments, in collaboration with external experts to identify and mitigate potential risks.

v. GPT 3.5

The GPT-3.5 model [7] is designed to understand and generate natural language as well as code. This cost-effective model, featuring 175 billion parameters, is optimized for both chat applications and traditional tasks. As a fine-tuned version of GPT-3, it uses deep learning to produce humanlike text. GPT-3.5 performs well in providing relevant results due to its refined architecture. The latest embedding models, including text-embedding-3-large, text-embedding-3-small, and text-embedding-ada-002, also offer good performance in multilingual retrieval tasks. These models allow adjustments to the embedding size through a new dimension parameter, providing control over cost and performance.

vi. Mistral

On December 11, 2023, Mistral AI [8] released Mixtral 8x7B [9], a Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE) [10] model with open weights. Mixtral 8x7B demonstrated better performance than Llama 2 70B on most benchmarks and offers six times faster inference. It also shows superior properties compared to GPT-3.5, making it a good choice regarding cost and performance. Mixtral can handle a context of 32k tokens, shows strong features in code generation, and can be fine-tuned to follow instructions, achieving a score of 8.3 on MT-Bench. With 46.7 billion total parameters but using only 12.9 billion per token, Mixtral maintains both speed and cost efficiency.

‍

DATA SETS

Benchmarking of the introduced models will be performed on three globally recognized and widely utilized datasets for training LLMs: Massive Multitask Language Understanding (MMLU), HumanEval, and BIG-Bench-Hard (BBH) datasets.

I. MMLU

The MMLU [11] is proposed with the purpose to assess a model's world knowledge and problem-solving ability. It represents a novel benchmark approach designed to evaluate the multitasking accuracy of a language model. This test covers 57 different subjects, including elementary mathematics, US history, computer science, and law. The questions are collected from various sources, such as practice exams, educational materials, and courses, and cover different difficulty levels, from elementary to professional. For example, the "Professional Medicine" task includes questions from medical licensing exams, while "High School Psychology" features questions from Advanced Placement exams. This collection helps measure a model's ability to learn and apply knowledge across different subjects.

In essence, MMLU tests models in zero-shot and few-shot settings, requiring them to answer questions without additional training. Despite the AI progress witnessed today, even the best models still exhibit poor MMLU performance in expert-level accuracy across all 57 tasks. Additionally, these models commonly perform inconsistently, often failing in areas such as morality and law, where they display random accuracy.

II. HumanEval

The researchers created HumanEval, an evaluation set to measure functional correctness in synthesizing programs from docstrings. Codex (a GPT language model from Chen et al., 2021 [12]) had achieved a 28.8% success rate on this set, while GPT-3 solves almost none, and GPT-J solves 11.4%.

HumanEval finds application in various machine learning cases, particularly within the domain of LLMs. It assesses the functional correctness of code generated by LLMs and presents programming challenges for models to solve by generating code from docstrings. Evaluation relies on the code's ability to pass provided unit tests. Additionally, the dataset serves as a benchmark for comparing the performance of different LLMs in code generation tasks, enabling the use of a standardized set for performance evaluations. In addition, HumanEval's application has introduced the creation of new evaluation metrics like pass@k, which offer additional assessments of models' programming challenge-solving abilities.

III. BBH

The BBH [13] dataset represents a subset of the BIG-Bench benchmark, designed to evaluate the capabilities of LLMs across various domains, including traditional NLP, mathematics, and commonsense reasoning. This dataset encompasses more than 200 tasks, aiming to push the limits of current language models. It specifically targets 23 unsolved tasks identified based on criteria such as the requirement for more than three subtasks and a minimum of 103 examples.

To assess BBH results accurately, multiple-choice and exact match evaluation metrics were employed. Analysis of BBH data revealed significant performance improvements with the application of chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting. For instance, CoT prompting enabled the PaLM model to surpass average human-rater performance on 10 out of the 23 tasks, while Codex (code-davinci-002) exceeded human-rater performance on 17 out of the 23 tasks. This enhancement is attributed to CoT prompting's ability to guide models through multi-step reasoning processes, essential for tackling complex tasks.

‍

BENCHMARK SCORES

Testing the models on the described test datasets (Table 1), Reactor Mk.1 demonstrated significant benchmark scores, achieving a 92% score on the MMLU benchmark, a 91% score on the HumanEval, and an 88% score on the BBH evaluation.

‍

‍

In comparison to other presented models in Table 1, Reactor Mk.1's performance has a superior position in several analysed categories. For instance, in the MMLU benchmark, Reactor Mk.1's 92% surpasses and outperforms OpenAI's GPT-4o, which scored 88.7%, and significantly outperforms other models like Anthropic's Claude Opus and Meta's Llama3, which scored 86.8% and 86.1%, respectively. Google Gemini and OpenAI GPT-3.5 were further behind, scoring 81.9% and 70%.

On the HumanEval benchmark, which assesses code generation capabilities, Reactor Mk.1 achieved a 91% score, outperforming all compared models. OpenAI's GPT-4 was close behind with a score of 90.2%, followed by Anthropic's Claude at 84.9% and Meta's Llama at 84.1%. Google Gemini and OpenAI GPT-3.5 scored 71.9% and 48.1%, respectively, indicating a significant performance gap.

For the BBH evaluation, which focuses on challenging tasks that require complex reasoning, Reactor Mk.1 achieved an 88% score. This result demonstrates the superior capability of Reactor Mk.1 in reasoning and handling language understanding tasks.

The dramatic lead achieved by the ARC Reactor Mk.1, especially with a score of 92% on MMLU, underscores our significant advancements. Remarkably, these results were accomplished with a handful of GPUs, highlighting the efficiency and power of our model compared to the more resource-intensive approaches used by other leading models. The benchmark scores indicate that the ARC Reactor Mk.1 not only outperforms in understanding and generating code but also demonstrates exceptional performance in reasoning and handling challenging language tasks. These results position the ARC Reactor Mk.1 as a leading model in the current state of the art of AI technology.

‍

CONCLUSION

This article aims to concisely present the performance of the Reactor Mk.1 AI model when tested on three popular datasets: MMLU, HumanEval, and BBH. In summary, the model achieved a 92% score on the MMLU dataset, a 91% score on the HumanEval, and an 88% score on the BBH evaluation. To demonstrate the significance of these results, other popular models like GPT 4o, Claude, Llama3, Gemini, and Mistral are used as benchmark models. The Reactor Mk.1 exhibited superior performance compared to the benchmark models, establishing itself as a leader in solving various LLM tasks and complex problems.

In this exclusive VMblog Q&A, we sit down with TJ Dunham, the founder and CEO of ARC, a deep tech company revolutionizing AI with its groundbreaking Reactor AI.

Focused on sustainability and efficiency, Reactor AI sets itself apart from traditional large language models (LLMs) by drastically reducing energy consumption and GPU requirements. With rapid ontological classification (ROC) at its core, Reactor is changing the landscape of AI development, offering a smarter and more sustainable alternative.

In this interview, Dunham shares insights into the innovations driving Reactor AI and the broader implications for the future of AI technology.

VMblog:  What is ARC and what is ARC's Reactor AI? What does the company do?

TJ Dunham:  We are ARC, a deep tech company dedicated to developing a new generation of super-efficient AI. We started ARC in 2023 with the belief that AI should work in the service of benefiting humanity, while being simple and transparent enough to be accessible to as many people as possible.

We designed Reactor Mk as a purpose-built large language model, to use significantly less energy and resources than the LLMs deployed by OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and others. We developed a far better and more sustainable way to train AI than any other LLM currently available. With Reactor AI, we've developed a novel, highly performant approach to training AI models.

VMblog:  How does Reactor AI achieve its energy efficiency compared to traditional LLMs? Can you elaborate on the role of rapid ontological classification (ROC) in this process?

Dunham:  Reactor achieves its energy efficiency by taking a fundamentally different approach to model training and data management. Traditional LLMs are built on vast, unstructured data sets that models need to sift through. In contrast, Reactor focuses on concise, highly organized data, from our rapid ontological classification (ROC) system.

While most other models train on massive, unfiltered datasets, Reactor uses data parsed and organized by ROC technology. Our ROC system incorporates elements from open-source models, discarding irrelevant or outdated information as it trains. It's a streamlined approach that allows us to train much more efficiently while consuming far fewer resources and less energy.

ROC technology helps structure the model's data more effectively. Imagine a traditional model with 75 billion parameters trying to self-organize its information; it's like navigating a maze. By contrast, Reactor AI's ROC system organizes data into clear "highways," allowing the model to access relevant information quickly and efficiently. This not only reduces energy consumption but also boosts performance.

VMblog:  What are the environmental implications of Reactor AI's reduced GPU requirements and energy consumption? How might this impact AI industry sustainability efforts?

Dunham:  The environmental implications are enormous. Typically, AI companies and their models are consuming vast amounts of energy, focusing on building bigger, more powerful models at unsustainable rates. Reactor demonstrates a better way: we can build highly efficient models without burning through exorbitant amounts of energy and resources, including water.

Our approach-using just a few cloud GPUs and achieving superior performance-sets a new standard for sustainability in AI. We are a small team outperforming energy-intensive giants on a fraction of the resources. Our whole focus is toward sustainable AI which not only reduces the industry's carbon footprint but also make AI more accessible and responsible.

VMblog:  Can you explain how Reactor's architecture differs from conventional LLMs and why this leads to improved energy efficiency?

Dunham:  Reactor's architecture combines different open-source models and leverages our ROC system, creating a streamlined, highly efficient model. Traditional LLMs must navigate through vast, disorganized datasets for every query, consuming more energy and time. Reactor, however, avoids this by organizing data through an AST-like system, making it much easier to access relevant information fast.

To put it in perspective, in essence Reactor has the most direct highways to its data centers, allowing for quicker, more efficient responses. This simplified "route" to information means Reactor requires significantly less energy, resulting in vastly improved efficiency.

VMblog:  How does ARC's approach to training Reactor with just 8 NVIDIA L4 and 4 NVIDIA A100 GPUs compare to methods used by larger tech companies? What are the implications for AI accessibility and democratization?

Dunham:  ARC's approach changes the game for AI accessibility and democratization. While large companies like OpenAI and xAI use thousands of GPUs to train their models, consuming massive amounts of energy, we achieved Reactor's performance using just 8 NVIDIA L4s and 4 A100 GPUs.

It shows that you don't need huge data centers or immense power to train high-performing models. Our method, focused on efficiency and innovation, shows that smaller companies can compete at the highest level without excessive resources. This paves the way for more startups and smaller players to enter the field, fostering a more competitive, diverse, and sustainable AI landscape.

VMblog:  In what ways does Reactor's ontological classification method provide advantages over traditional LLMs that rely on vast training datasets?

Dunham:  Reactor's rapid ontological classification (ROC) offers several key advantages over traditional LLMs that rely on large, disorganized datasets. First, it allows for much more efficient data organization, meaning the model can retrieve relevant information faster. Second, this organization makes the data more accessible, so the model doesn't waste energy parsing through irrelevant information.

Additionally, our models can collaborate more efficiently through agentic interaction, where multiple models work together seamlessly. This is in stark contrast to the typical scaling methods of other companies, which rely on more GPUs to increase power. Reactor's architecture allows us to scale more efficiently, enabling models to be smaller, faster, and more sustainable.

VMblog:  How do you envision Reactor's energy-efficient design influencing the future development of AI technologies, particularly in addressing the growing concerns about AI's resource consumption?

Dunham:  Reactor AI sets a new standard for energy efficiency. This will influence the broader AI industry. Our goal is to create a model that absorbs more carbon than it produces-a "climate-positive" AI. This flips the current narrative that AI is inherently harmful to the environment.

As more companies realize the potential of our approach, they'll be motivated to reduce their energy consumption and adopt sustainable practices.

Instead of competing for the largest, most energy-hungry models, we envision a future where efficiency and sustainability are the key drivers of AI innovation. Ultimately, this shift will result in AI technologies that are not just more powerful but also more responsible.

VMblog:  Can you share some specific data or metrics that demonstrate Reactor's efficiency gains compared to other LLMs in the market?

Dunham:  Here's one example in terms of energy consumption. Our Reactor AI used less than 1 megawatt of energy for training, while other models have consumed upwards of 50,000 megawatts. This difference-50,000 times more efficient-is staggering and represents a leap forward in AI efficiency.

In terms of the speed difference vs. traditional models, this is easily illustrated by the resources it took to train our model. With Reactor Mk, we only used 8 L4 GPUs and 4 A100s, running for less than a day, while GPT-4 is so massive it is believed to have required over 25,000 A100s running for three months for training.

You can also experience Reactor's efficiency for yourself by taking it for a spin. Go to https://reactor.helloarc.ai and give it a whirl.

VMblog:  While the iOS and Android apps you're just announcing are exciting, the focus seems to be on Reactor's efficiency. How do you see this technology potentially reshaping the landscape of mobile AI applications?

Dunham:  Reactor's efficiency will play a pivotal role in reshaping mobile AI. Our goal is to build a full-time assistant that can run on your phone, helping with tasks like drafting emails, organizing work, and even functioning offline. As the technology evolves, we want users to own their assistants fully, with all data encrypted and stored locally on their devices. This would ensure complete privacy and control over the AI.

The implications are profound. Reactor will allow AI to be more deeply integrated into our daily lives without draining device resources. It's not just about having AI on your phone; it's about having an AI that's efficient, private, and truly yours-without compromising on functionality or speed.

Bitcoin remains at lower levels, with consistent closures below $60,000 causing concern. Analysts are examining the potential negative scenarios that technical price weaknesses could trigger. So, what do institutional analysts currently think about the market? What are crypto investors anticipating? Here are the details.

In light of ongoing sales in Germany and MTGOX activity, investor risk appetite has notably decreased. The RSI easing into the oversold region and sentiment plunging to fear levels have led to new lows in altcoins. What are the latest forecasts from QCP analysts? In a recently released market evaluation, experts stated:

“While stocks and gold have been on the rise since last week, crypto prices are moving in the opposite direction. Last week, around 3-4 PM New York time, there were intense spot sales. This might be the large supply mentioned in recent headlines entering the market, particularly from the German government and Mt. Gox distributions.

However, the price drop coincided with the July 4th US holiday, with prices only finding support the next day when the US market resumed buying. On Friday, there was over $143 million net inflow into BTC spot ETFs. Towards the weekend, BTC traded within a wide range of $53,500-$58,500 amid very weak liquidity. Are these fluctuations a new norm due to weak liquidity outside US working hours, or just a summer market pattern?”

QCP Analysts’ Latest Insights

In light of ongoing sales in Germany and MTGOX activity, investor risk appetite has notably decreased. The RSI easing into the oversold region and sentiment plunging to fear levels have led to new lows in altcoins. What are the latest forecasts from QCP analysts? In a recently released market evaluation, experts stated:

Are these fluctuations a new norm due to weak liquidity outside US working hours, or just a summer market pattern?”

Bitcoin (BTC) Trends

The rise in BTC accelerated to $54,700 at the end of February 2024 after a brief pause, but the price has since moved away from this point. Continued closures below $58,376 suggest the potential for deeper lows. BTC, after lingering at $60,200, is making efforts to stabilize at a lower level.

Key Takeaways for Investors

For investors looking at the current BTC market situation, here are key inferences:

• Monitor price closures below $58,376 as indicators of potential deeper lows.
• Be aware of weak liquidity periods, especially outside US working hours.
• Track large inflows into BTC spot ETFs as potential support signals.

Should the negative sentiment continue, we might witness new lows in the $50,700 and $48,000 range, which would also result in fresh yearly lows for altcoins.

Institutional Influence on Bitcoin's Market

The influence of institutional investors on Bitcoin's market cannot be overstated. With significant players like MicroStrategy and Tesla making substantial investments, the market dynamics have shifted. Institutional FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) has been a driving force behind Bitcoin's price movements. The entry of institutional money has provided a level of stability and legitimacy to Bitcoin, which was previously considered a speculative asset.

MicroStrategy's Impact

MicroStrategy, a business intelligence firm, has been one of the most vocal proponents of Bitcoin. The company has consistently increased its Bitcoin holdings, with its CEO, Michael Saylor, advocating for Bitcoin as a store of value. MicroStrategy's aggressive accumulation strategy has had a ripple effect, encouraging other institutions to consider Bitcoin as a viable investment.

Tesla's Bitcoin Holdings

Tesla's announcement of a $1.5 billion investment in Bitcoin earlier this year sent shockwaves through the market. The move was seen as a significant endorsement of Bitcoin by one of the world's most innovative companies. Tesla's investment has not only boosted Bitcoin's price but also increased its visibility among mainstream investors.

The Role of Bitcoin ETFs

Bitcoin ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) have been another critical factor in Bitcoin's market dynamics. The approval of Bitcoin ETFs in various jurisdictions has made it easier for institutional investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin without directly holding the asset. This has led to increased inflows into Bitcoin ETFs, providing additional support to Bitcoin's price.

The Impact of US Bitcoin ETFs

The approval of Bitcoin ETFs in the US has been a game-changer. These ETFs have attracted significant inflows from institutional investors, further solidifying Bitcoin's position as a mainstream asset. The ease of access provided by ETFs has lowered the barriers to entry for institutional investors, leading to increased demand for Bitcoin.

Global Bitcoin ETF Landscape

While the US has been a significant market for Bitcoin ETFs, other countries have also seen the launch of Bitcoin ETFs. Canada, for instance, was one of the first countries to approve Bitcoin ETFs, and these products have seen substantial inflows. The global acceptance of Bitcoin ETFs is a testament to the growing institutional interest in Bitcoin.

The Halving Cycle and Its Impact

The Bitcoin halving cycle is a well-known phenomenon that has historically had a significant impact on Bitcoin's price. The halving event, which occurs approximately every four years, reduces the block reward for miners by half. This reduction in supply has often been followed by substantial price increases.

The Upcoming Halving Event

The next Bitcoin halving event is expected to occur in 2024. Historically, Bitcoin's price has started to rally approximately a year before the halving event as investors anticipate the reduction in supply. This pre-halving rally is driven by the expectation that the reduced supply will lead to higher prices.

Historical Halving Cycles

Looking at past halving cycles, Bitcoin has experienced significant price increases following each halving event. The 2012 halving was followed by a massive bull run that saw Bitcoin's price increase from around $12 to over $1,000. Similarly, the 2016 halving was followed by a bull run that took Bitcoin's price from around $650 to nearly $20,000.

Market Sentiment and Its Influence

Market sentiment plays a crucial role in Bitcoin's price movements. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index is a popular tool used to gauge market sentiment. This index measures factors such as volatility, market volume, social media activity, and surveys to determine whether the market is in a state of fear or greed.

Current Market Sentiment

As of now, the Crypto Fear and Greed Index indicates a state of fear in the market. This is reflected in the recent price declines and the overall bearish sentiment among investors. However, periods of fear can often present buying opportunities for contrarian investors who believe in Bitcoin's long-term potential.

The Role of Social Media

Renowned trading legend Peter Brandt has recently sparked a debate in the cryptocurrency community by suggesting that Bitcoin might be on the verge of completing a double-top pattern. In a compelling X post, Brandt highlighted a potential minimum target of $44,000, supported by a detailed Bitcoin price chart. This projection indicates a significant downside risk if the double-top pattern is confirmed. However, Brandt also noted that for a true double-top formation, the depth of the top of BTC would need to be around 20% of the price, while the current depth is only around 10%. This nuanced analysis leaves room for both caution and optimism among Bitcoin traders.

Understanding the Double-Top Pattern

A double-top pattern is a bearish reversal pattern that typically signals the end of an uptrend and the beginning of a downtrend. It is characterized by two peaks at roughly the same level, with a moderate decline between them. The pattern is confirmed when the price falls below the support level formed by the low point between the two peaks.

Key Characteristics of a Double-Top Pattern

1. Two Peaks: The two peaks should be at approximately the same price level.
2. Moderate Decline: There should be a moderate decline between the two peaks.
3. Confirmation: The pattern is confirmed when the price breaks below the support level formed by the low point between the peaks.

Peter Brandt's Analysis

Peter Brandt's analysis suggests that Bitcoin might be forming a double-top pattern, with a potential minimum target of $44,000. This projection is based on a detailed Bitcoin price chart that shows two peaks at roughly the same level, with a moderate decline between them. However, Brandt also noted that for a true double-top formation, the depth of the top of BTC would need to be around 20% of the price, while the current depth is only around 10%.

Implications of a Double-Top Pattern

If the double-top pattern is confirmed, it could signal a significant downside risk for Bitcoin. The potential minimum target of $44,000 represents a substantial decline from current levels. However, the fact that the current depth is only around 10% suggests that the pattern might not be fully formed yet, leaving room for both caution and optimism among Bitcoin traders.

Market Reactions and Expert Opinions

The possibility of a double-top pattern has sparked a debate among cryptocurrency analysts and traders. Some experts believe that the pattern is a strong indicator of a potential downtrend, while others argue that the current market conditions do not support a bearish outlook.

Bullish vs. Bearish Sentiments

• Bullish Sentiments: Some analysts believe that the current market conditions are still favorable for Bitcoin, with strong institutional interest and increasing adoption driving demand. They argue that the current depth of the top is not sufficient to confirm a double-top pattern and that Bitcoin could still see further gains.
• Bearish Sentiments: On the other hand, some experts believe that the double-top pattern is a strong indicator of a potential downtrend. They argue that the recent price action suggests that Bitcoin might be losing momentum and that a decline to $44,000 is possible.

Historical Context and Future Projections

To better understand the potential implications of a double-top pattern, it is helpful to look at historical trends and future projections for Bitcoin.

Historical Trends

Historically, Bitcoin has experienced several significant price corrections following major bull runs. For example, after reaching an all-time high of nearly $20,000 in December 2017, Bitcoin experienced a prolonged bear market, with the price eventually falling to around $3,000 in December 2018.

Future Projections

Looking ahead, some analysts believe that Bitcoin could still see significant gains, despite the potential for a double-top pattern. For example, some experts have projected that Bitcoin could reach $100,000 or even higher in the coming years, driven by increasing institutional interest and adoption.

Conclusion

Peter Brandt's suggestion that Bitcoin might be on the verge of completing a double-top pattern has sparked a debate among cryptocurrency analysts and traders. While the potential minimum target of $44,000 represents a significant downside risk, the fact that the current depth of the top is only around 10% suggests that the pattern might not be fully formed yet.
