NXAI’s Focus: H2 2024 and Beyond Six months after our launch, NXAI is excited to share key research progress and future projects aimed at revolutionizing AI in industry. We’re introducing the 7B-LLM, a 7-billion-parameter model based on xLSTM, set to boost Europe’s AI leadership. 💡 Highlights: xLSTM: The backbone of our large-scale European language model, driving innovation across automation, design, and more. AI4Simulation: Replacing traditional simulations with AI models for enhanced efficiency in engineering and robotics. Vision-LSTM (ViL): Redefining computer vision with unparalleled accuracy and efficiency. Stay tuned for more on our upcoming particle simulation paper and the launch of our 7B model! #NXAI #AI #Innovation #Research #xLSTM #Technology

MY MIND IS BLOWN! What I claimed to be a very stupid xLSTM turned out to be a composer! Looks like there is the first Music-xLSTM on Hugging Face now! Doing a code review, I realized a bug in the sampling routine. With the bug fixed, xLSTM generated symbolic music! How am I supposed to sleep tonight? 🏆 Oh wow! Oh wow!

Sepp Hochreiter on FAZ Podcast: Next AI Breakthrough? We’re excited to announce that Sepp Hochreiter was featured on the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung D:ECONOMY Podcast. In this exclusive interview, Sepp provides deep insights into his pioneering work on Long-Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and its evolution into Extended Long-Short-Term Memory (xLSTM). Sepp’s xLSTM aims to overcome current AI limitations and improve on transformer models, pushing the boundaries of what AI can achieve.

Recap of AI in the Alps: Insights and Networking We recently participated in “AI in the Alps,” organized by the Industrial AI Podcast, bringing together 30 industry leaders for engaging exchanges. The event featured workshops on use cases, simulation, and certification. Sessions were moderated by distinguished scientists Thomas Doms, Bernhard Nessler, and Marco Huber and Johannes Brandstetter, who led the simulation workshop, sharing advanced AI applications. Albert Ortig hosted a Q&A session, offering valuable insights into our innovations. Held in Zug Am Arlberg, the event was a fantastic opportunity for networking and discussing the future of Industrial AI without any PowerPoint presentations. Initiated by Industrial AI co-producers Robert Weber and Peter Seeberg, and organized by Barbara März, “AI in the Alps” was a tremendous success. Stay tuned for AI at the Danube, hosted by NXAI in Linz! #IndustrialAI #Networking #AIintheAlps #AIattheDanube #TechInnovation #NXAI

AI with Purpose: Siemens Summit in Munich At Siemens’ “AI with Purpose” Summit in Munich, NXAI team members Albert Ortig and Johannes Brandstetter shared insights on NXAI, XLSTM, and AI4Simulation. Many thanks to Boris Scharinger and team for having us. Catch Johannes on the Industrial AI Podcast with Peter Seeberg and Robert Weber, exploring AI’s transformative role in industries. The episode airs tomorrow. Stay tuned for more updates! #SiemensAISummit #AIwithPurpose #NXAI #XLSTM #AI4Simulation #IndustrialAI #Munich Photocredit: Industrial AI Podcast

NXAI Announces VisionLSTM VisionLSTM is an adaptation of xLSTM designed to handle image data. It surpasses transformer baselines that have been optimized for years on smaller models and can hold its own against these transformer baselines on larger models. Additionally, it also outperforms other sequential vision models, such as Vision-Mamba, by a large margin. 🎉 https://lnkd.in/dmUyDej4 https://lnkd.in/dSZmFnzN We are excited to share our latest research paper authored by Benedikt Alkin, Maximilian Beck, Korbinian Pöppel, Sepp Hochreiter, and Johannes Brandstetter. 

With NXAI we want to build an European AI hub. We focus on two highly relevant topics. The first topic is Large Language Models (LLMs) with xLSTM as flagship project. The other topic is AI4Simulation for engineering and industrial applications, which are central and crucial for the European industry. We want to enable fast and precise simulations of systems with tens or hundred millions particles. We want to construct foundation models for industrial simulations.   We are hiring Senior Researchers and Core LLM Developers. www.nx-ai.com

I am so excited that xLSTM is out. https://lnkd.in/dCYZRgz9 LSTM is close to my heart - for more than 30 years now. With xLSTM we close the gap to existing state-of-the-art Large Language Models (LLMs). I am very proud of my team: Maximilian Beck, Korbinian Poeppel, Andreas Auer, Markus Spanring, Oleksandra P., Michael Kopp, Günter Klambauer, Johannes Brandstetter. With the company NXAI we have started to build our own European LLMs that perform better than Transformer (GPT,Llama, etc.) and State Space Models according to the scaling laws. These are exciting times where Europe catches up at Large Language Models and modern AI.
