Liverpool boss Arne Slot hailed “special” Mohamed Salah after seeing him fire the Premier League leaders to the brink of victory at Newcastle. The Reds ultimately left St James’ Park with only a point after Fabian Schar snatched a 3-3 draw at the end of a pulsating encounter, but Salah’s double – his 14th and 15th goals of the season – transformed a 2-1 deficit into a 3-2 lead before the Switzerland defender’s late intervention. The 32-year-old Egypt international’s future at Anfield remains a topic of debate with his current contract running down. Asked about Salah’s future, Slot said: “It’s difficult for me to predict the long-term future, but the only thing I can expect or predict is that he is in a very good place at the moment. Two goals and an assist for Mo tonight 👏 pic.twitter.com/tMXidgeA0P — Liverpool FC (@LFC) December 4, 2024 “He plays in a very good team that provides him with good opportunities and then he is able to do special things. “And what makes him for me even more special is that in the first hour or before we scored to make it 1-1, you thought, ‘He’s not playing his best game today’, and to then come up with a half-hour or 45 minutes – I don’t know how long it was – afterwards with an assist, two goals, having a shot on the bar, being a constant threat, that is something not many players can do if they’ve played the first hour like he did. “That is also what makes him special. If you just look at the goals, his finish is so clinical. He’s a special player, but that’s what we all know.” Salah did indeed endure a quiet opening 45 minutes by his standards and it was the Magpies who went in at the break a goal to the good after Alexander Isak’s stunning 35th-minute finish. Slot said: “The shot from Isak, I don’t even know if Caoimh (keeper Caoimhin Kelleher) saw that ball, as hard as it was.” Salah set up Curtis Jones to level five minutes into the second half and after Anthony Gordon has restored the hosts’ lead, levelled himself from substitute Trent Alexander-Arnold’s 68th-minute cross. He looked to have won it with a fine turn and finish – his ninth goal in seven league games – seven minutes from time, only for Schar to pounce from a tight angle in the 90th minute. Newcastle head coach Eddie Howe was delighted with the way his team took the game to the Reds four days after their disappointing 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace. Howe, who admitted his surprise that VAR official Stuart Attwell had not taken a dimmer view of a Virgil van Dijk shoulder barge on Gordon, said: “It’s mixed emotions. “Part of me feels we should have won it – a big part of me – but part of me is pleased we didn’t lose either because it was such a late goal for us. “Generally, I’m just pleased with the performance. There was much more attacking output, a much better feel about the team. “There was much better energy, and it was a really good performance against, for me, the best team we’ve played so far this season in the Premier League, so it was a big jump forward for us.”

NoneABU DHABI, Verenigde Arabische Emiraten--(BUSINESS WIRE)--nov 26, 2024-- De Open-Source AI Summit van Abu Dhabi, gehost door de Technology Innovative Institute (TII), een internationaal onderzoekscentrum gespecialiseerd in toegepaste wetenschappen, ging van start met kritieke besprekingen die de globale AI-agenda bepalen. De summit, die vandaag en morgen doorgaat op het St. Regis Saadiyat Island met meer dan 300 genodigden, convergeert met een groeiende internationale focus op het getouwtrek tussen open- en closed-source AI.

Zij controleren het, met inbegrip van de gegevens die u eraan geeft. Innovatie begint en eindigt met hen. “Ofwel kan men gebruik maken van een open-source model dat binnen de gemeenschap groeit. We innoveren samen, en iedereen kan overal toegang ertoe hebben en erop bouwen. Als AI deel zal uitmaken van het weefsel van onze maatschappij — en dat zal zo zijn — dan moeten landen, bedrijven en particuliere personen beslissen wij het zal controleren. Falcon AI-modellen openen was TII’s bijdrage aan de wereld.” Dr. Najwa Aaraj, CEO van TII die de summit heeft ingeleid, verklaart: “De Open-Source AI Summit van Abu Dhabi is een beslissend moment voor wereldwijd overleg over AI. Net als andere open-source modellen, verenigt Falcon wetenschappers, ontwikkelaars en innovators om technologische vorderingen te versnellen als katalysator voor wereldwijde verandering. We kijken ernaar uit om de impact te zien die het verder zal blijven hebben, vooral nu we ons werk met de Falcon Foundation verderzetten.” De agenda van de summit werd verdergezet met toespraken van gerenomeerde sprekers, waaronder Dr. Belgacem Haba, de vicevoorzitter van de Adeia Corporation in de V.S., die het had over de uitdagingen die AI heeft gecreëerd in de sector van de productie van halfgeleiders. Prof. Philip Torr, professor en wetenschappelijk hoofdadviseur van de Oxford University in de U.K, sprak over wie AI zou moeten bezitten, waarmee hij mogelijke nadelen aanstipte, evenals regelgeving, en betoogde dat de voordelen van open-source AI op lange termijn de risico's ervan compenseren. Dr. Hakim Hacid, hoofdonderzoeker van TII’s AI Research Center, verklaart: “We zijn van mening dat open-source AI de weg vooruit is, maar het is allesbehalve eenvoudig. Er zijn uitdagingen en kwesties inzake controle, beleid, de macht van computers en hardware die we moeten aanpakken. Dit is de reden waarom we zoveel experts van wereldformaat op deze summit bijeenbrengen en dit zullen we in de toekomst verder blijven doen in partnerschap met de Falcon Foundation. Deze gesprekken zijn van cruciaal belang.” Sprekers die later aan de beurt komen, zijn Dr. Natalia Vassilieva, vicevoorzitter en Field CTO van Cerebras Systems in de V.S., Dr. June Paik, oprichter en CEO van FuriosaAI in de V.S., Dr. Armand Joulin, onderzoeksdirecteur bij Google DeepMind in Frankrijk, en Dr. Michal Valko, Principal Llama Engineer van Meta Paris in Frankrijk. Zij zullen het hebben over de niveaus van AI-openheid, duurzaam AI-computergebruik, het creëren van compactere LLM's, het benutten van basismodellen voor betrouwbare algoritmes, en dergelijke meer. Dr. Jingwei Zuo van TII zal een toespraak houden over Falcon Mamba, het eerste State Space Language Model, gebouwd met behulp van volledig nieuwe architectuur en eerder dit jaar gelanceerd. Hoogtepunt van de summit wordt een panel onder leiding van TII over hun visie met betrekking tot open-source AI. De Falcon AI LLM-serie van TII heeft wereldwijde erkenning geoogst. De serie begon met de lancering van Falcon 40B, de eerste open-source LLM van de VAE, in mei 2023. Sindsdien worden de volgende Falcon-modellen wereldwijd consistent onder de top open-source AI-modellen gerangschikt, zoals gevalideerd door Hugging Face, de onafhankelijke leidersraad van de sector. Een nieuw Falcon-model wordt eind 2024 verwacht. *Bron: AETOSWire Deze bekendmaking is officieel geldend in de originele brontaal.
