Google has announced that its generative AI model, Gemini, is now available to enterprises for app development in three sizes: Ultra, Pro, and Nano. The Pro version is accessible via API with certain usage limitations for free, and it offers features such as a 32K context window for text generation. Google has also introduced additional […]
Australian scientists at the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems at Western Sydney University are developing a neuromorphic supercomputer, named DeepSouth, that aims to simulate the synaptic operations of a human brain at full scale. This supercomputer will be capable of 228 trillion synaptic operations per second, which is comparable to the estimated number of operations […]
Tesla has unveiled its second-generation Optimus humanoid robot, showcasing its improved dexterity and agility, and potential to replace human workers in the company’s factories. The robot, featured in a video shared by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, can perform complex tasks such as flexing its fingers and hands, walking faster, doing squats, and picking up objects […]
Microsoft Research has released Phi-2, a small language model (SLM) with 2.7 billion parameters, showcasing remarkable language understanding and reasoning abilities despite its smaller size compared to large language models (LLMs) like GPT and Gemini. Its efficient performance in specific tasks such as math and coding positions it as a viable alternative to larger models. […]
Google is reportedly working on a new AI project called Project Ellmann, which aims to create an ultra-intelligent AI assistant capable of capturing a “birds-eye view” of users’ lives. This AI assistant, known as Ellmann Chat, is designed to ingest personal photos, documents stored in a Google account, and other contextual information to provide highly […]
In the world of large language models (LLMs), fine-tuning them using domain-specific data is crucial for generating relevant outputs. However, this process can lead to “catastrophic forgetting,” where the model loses critical capabilities and reasoning skills. To address this issue, Tenyx is introducing a fine-tuning method that helps businesses adapt LLMs to their unique requirements […]
Researchers have connected the humanoid robot, Alter3, to GPT-4, the AI model behind ChatGPT, allowing the robot to generate spontaneous movements without the need for pre-programming. The integration of GPT-4 with Alter3 showcases the potential for AI-driven advancements in robotics, presenting opportunities for businesses to explore AI-powered innovations in automation and robotics. This development could […]
The article discusses a study from the University of California, Berkeley, which highlights the limitations of AI systems compared to human abilities. The study found that while AI can summarize existing knowledge and culture, it struggles when it comes to innovation and thinking of novel uses for everyday objects. Children demonstrated a much higher ability […]
The article discusses the peculiar behavior of OpenAI’s ChatGPT-4, which has been exhibiting signs of laziness, leading to speculation about a “winter break hypothesis” possibly affecting the AI model’s performance. The company has acknowledged the issue but is unsure of the cause. Some believe that the AI may be responding to seasonal patterns exhibited by […]
The New York Police Department has deployed a K5 security robot in the Times Square-42nd St. subway station to aid in surveillance during nighttime hours. The K5 robot is equipped with HD cameras, microphones, and AI capabilities to detect unusual activity. It’s part of a trend where police departments and businesses across the country are […]
Elon Musk’s chatbot venture xAI has introduced its chatbot, Grok, to X subscribers. However, despite earlier claims about the chatbot being “anti-woke,” it has exhibited progressive views on topics like gender identity and diversity. This has prompted Musk to pledge to shift Grok closer to political neutrality in response to feedback from his fanbase.
Rakuten, a Japanese tech giant, is planning to launch its own proprietary large language model (LLM), a type of AI model trained on massive datasets. The company has a diverse range of businesses, including banking, e-commerce, and telecommunications, which provide it with a unique and extensive dataset for training its LLM. Rakuten intends to use […]
In the world of brain-computer interfaces, Brainoware, a hybrid system that combines living brain cells with artificial intelligence (AI), has shown promising abilities in processing information and performing computing tasks. Guo and his team tested Brainoware’s capacity by tasking it with solving mathematical equations and recognizing speech patterns, proving that it could decode signals from […]
