Introduction:

In May 2023, we took our first steps into the future with the community testing of Morpheus, and today, we are excited to share the next chapter in our journey. The Matrix AI Network is proud to introduce the transformative Morpheus Upgrade, a giant leap towards realizing Matrix 3.0’s vision about Avatar Intelligence (AvI). The response from our community has been overwhelmingly positive, validating the promise of Morpheus in shaping the future of AvI.

What It Is:

The Morpheus Upgrade represents a series of ground-breaking advancements:

  1. Enhanced Neural Network Parameters: The entire large model’s neural network parameters have surged by approximately 15 times compared to the previous version.
  2. Expanded Training Sets: Our training corpus is now 35 times larger, equipping Morpheus with an extensive knowledge base.
  3. Challenges in Response Speed: Despite network optimizations and increased computational power, the response speed may be 4–5 times longer due to the significant parameter increase.
  4. New Datasets: Morpheus is enriched with new datasets, enabling it to respond to current events up until the first half of 2022.
  5. Innovations in Pretraining: The new version introduces a self-regressive mechanism, enhancing Morpheus’s learning and adaptability.
  6. Multi-Objective Pretraining: A multi-objective pre-training mechanism amplifies Morpheus’s versatility and adaptability.
  7. Model Structure Refinement: Morpheus now employs a single linear layer to predict output tokens, enhancing predictive capabilities.
  8. Activation Function Evolution: The activation function has evolved from ReLU to GeLUs, optimizing overall performance.
  9. Rotation Position Encoding: The introduction of rotation position encoding bolsters the model’s stability and resilience.

What It Means:

The Morpheus Upgrade signifies a watershed moment in AI technology. With increased neural network parameters, Morpheus now possesses a superior understanding, imitation, and reasoning ability, allowing it to closely mimic users’ language and thought patterns. This advancement is pivotal in achieving Avatar Intelligence, the cornerstone of Matrix 3.0’s vision. Morpheus plays a vital role in comprehending thinking patterns, feedback loops, and user habits, enabling the training of avatars with intelligence closely aligned with their users. It complements the neurosignals collected, forming a comprehensive Avatar Intelligence framework.

Why It Matters:

The Morpheus Upgrade is a monumental achievement, propelling Matrix AI Network into a new era of AI capabilities. It addresses the demand for more sophisticated and adaptable AI models, enhancing our ability to communicate, learn, and adapt to evolving community needs. This upgrade exemplifies our unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of AI research and development.

As highlighted in Professor Deng’s article (A Bilingual Pretrained Model Based on MATRIX Mainnet — MATRIX), the addition of more neural network parameters enables Morpheus to better understand, imitate, and reason. It significantly improves its ability to mimic users accurately. This advancement is a critical milestone on the path to Avatar Intelligence, a central element of Matrix 3.0 Blueprint, which strives to create avatars that intimately understand and mirror their users’ thought processes and behaviors.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the Morpheus Upgrade signifies a monumental achievement in our quest for AI excellence. Despite potential minor trade-offs in response times, the benefits in understanding, imitation, and reasoning far outweigh any drawbacks. We are thrilled to announce that we will soon invite our community members to partake in further testing and exploration of Morpheus. We extend an invitation to our community to join us in shaping the future of AI, ushering in a smarter and more connected world. Together, we will continue to lead the way in AI advancement and make strides towards realizing the vision of Matrix 3.0.
