Almost-unbeatable AI comes to Gran Turismo 7

Posted by in categories: robotics/AI, transportation

Last year, Sony AI and Polyphony Digital, the developers of Gran Turismo, developed a new AI agent that is able to race at a world-class level. At the time, the experiment was described in a paper in Nature, where the researchers showed that this AI was not only capable of driving very fast—something other AI have done in the past—but also learned tactics, strategy, and even racing etiquette.

At the time, GT Sophy—the name of the AI—wasn’t quite ready for prime time. For example, it often passed opponents at the earliest opportunity on a straight, allowing itself to be overtaken in the next braking zone. And unlike human players, GT Sophy would try to overtake players with impending time penalties—humans would just wait for that penalized car to slow to gain the place.

US ‘develops’ AI-powered facial recognition tech for military robot drones

Posted by in categories: drones, military, robotics/AI

The drones are to be tasked with expeditionary roles, including special operations, to “open the opportunity for real-time autonomous response by the robot.”

The United States Air Force has reportedly developed AI-powered facial recognition techechnolgy (FTR) for autonomous drones.

The drones will be used by special operations personnel for missions overseas and for gathering intelligence and other operations, according to a contract between the Department of Defense (DoD) and Seattle-based company RealNetworks.

Meta unveils ChatGPT rival AI LLaMA, but no guarantee on hallucination

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

The Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) team at Meta, Facebook’s parent company, has introduced a new “state-of-the-art” artificial intelligence (AI) language model called Large Language Model Meta AI (LLaMA).

The model will be made accessible to researchers, and is anticipated to aid scientists and engineers as they investigate new uses of AI, CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced on Friday.

ChatGPT shrinks human workforce in US amid tech layoffs, reveals survey

Posted by in categories: business, robotics/AI

Over half of the studied companies in the United States have deployed OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot, according to a recent study.

And nearly half of these businesses disclosed that ChatGPT had already replaced a number of their employees, claimed the survey done by Resumebuilder.com, involving 1,000 business leaders.

This new technology is still in its early stages in the workplace, “workers need to surely be thinking of how it may affect the responsibilities of their current job,” said Stacie Haller, Chief Career Advisor at Resumebuilder.com.

Google parent Alphabet fires robots after slaying 12,000 human jobs earlier

Posted by in categories: employment, robotics/AI

Costing tens of thousands of dollars, these robots were clearing tables and keeping cafeterias clean.

If human workers have been complaining about robots taking over their jobs, the macroeconomic situation has now put robots out of work.

Over a hundred robots at Google’s parent company, Alphabet, have allegedly been fired after the team maintaining them was shut down, Wired reported.

GPT-4 Is Coming — What We Know So Far

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

ChatGPT has taken the tech world by storm, showcasing artificial intelligence (AI) with conversational abilities that go far beyond anything we’ve seen before. The viral chatbot interface is based on GPT-3, said to be one of the largest and most complex language models ever created — trained on 175 billion “parameters” (data points).

However, it’s something of an open secret that its creator — the AI research organization OpenAI — is well into development of its successor, GPT-4. Rumor has it that GPT-4 will be far more powerful and capable than GPT-3.

The Unexpected Winners Of The ChatGPT Generative AI Revolution

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, chemistry, robotics/AI

OpenAI’s ChatGPT has taken the world like wildfire and continues to make headlines. However, the Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) has been around for a very long time. The technology was first pioneered in academia with Ian Goodfellow and Yoshua Bengio publishing their first seminal work on Generative Adversarial Networks in 2014 and then Google picked up the torch and published seminal papers and patents in both GANs and generative pre-trained transformers (GPT). In fact, my first paper on generative chemistry, was published in 2016, first granted patent in 2018, and the first AI-generated drug went through the first phase of clinical trials.


Forbes is one of the most reputable content providers on the planet and probably the most reputable when it comes to anything dealing with money. If Forbes does not classify you as a billionaire, you are not a billionaire. It has decades of high-quality expert-generated longitudinal text, and multimedia content in multiple languages. In addition to elite human reporters and editors, it also has a small army of content creators specializing in specific areas contributing to Forbes.com. For example, it is my 5th year as a contributor and I contribute regularly to keep the pencil sharp. This massive human intelligence may be partly repurposed to help develop internal generative resources within the Forbes empire, help curate the datasets and help train or benchmark third-party generative resources. I would gladly volunteer a small amount of time to such a task.

Nature and several other journals in the Nature Publishing Group portfolio are considered to be the Olympus in academic publishing. To publish in one of the elite Nature journals academics spend months and sometimes years going through the rounds of editorial and then peer-review. The quality of the data is questioned, all experimental data is disclosed, and the thousands or millions of dollars that went into the experiments are presented in the form of a paper and supplementary materials.

AI Startups Boom In San Francisco Amid $100 Billion Google Mistake

Posted by in categories: economics, finance, robotics/AI

On stage in front of packed rooms, at lavish private venture capital dinners and over casual games of ping pong, San Francisco’s AI startup scene is blowing up. With tens of thousands of laid off software engineers with time to tinker, glistening empty buildings beckoning them to start something new, and billions of dollars in idle cash in need of investing, it’s no surprise that just weeks after viral AI companion ChatGPT made its jaw-dropping debut on Nov. 30, one of the smartest cities in the world would pick generative AI as the driver of its next economic boom.


San Francisco’s AI startup scene is blowing up thanks to the ChatGPT craze and backing from investors like Y Combinator, Bessemer, Coatue, Andreessen Horowitz, Tiger Global, Mark Benioff’s Time Ventures and Ashton Kutcher’s Sound Ventures. Meet the players who are shaking up the tech mecca.
