Chatbot Arena, a crowdsourced benchmark project by Major AI Labs, relies on testing and selling AI models, is setting up a company called Arena Intelligence Inc., reports Bloomberg.
In a blog post published Thursday, Chatbot Arena said the company will “provide resources (IT) to significantly improve what’s today.” The team also committed to continuing to provide a neutral testing ground for AI that is not affected by external interests.
Founded in 2023, Chatbot Arena has become a kind of obsession in the AI industry. Run by researchers primarily in Berkeley, California, Chatbot Arena partners with companies such as Openai, Google and humanity to make use of a flagship model for community evaluation.
Chatbot Arena was previously funded through a combination of grants and donations, including Google’s Kaggle data science platform, Andreessen Horowitz, and AI together. The organization’s fledgling company has yet to reveal any potential new backers. Furthermore, we have not decided on a business model.
