Latest Developments 🌍

Wear your Personal AI 🔮

Humane has finally launched its much-anticipated AI Pin, a sleek discreet, engagement-focused wearable device integrating AI into our daily life without overshadowing human interaction. Intriguing, engaging, and prioritizing your privacy, this complete system is priced at $699.

Key Highlights:

1. The AI Pin activates upon user engagement through voice, touch, gesture, or the laser ink display. With a hot-swappable battery booster, it ensures uninterrupted, all-day AI assistance.

2. Powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon, the Pin is ultra-fast in responding, and features an RGB camera, depth sensor, and motion sensors. The Trust Light indicator enhances data security, signaling active sensors.

3. Humane's OS streamlines user interaction without traditional apps. Without the need for manually sifting through apps or messages, the Pin autonomously selects the most suitable AI (powered by industry leaders like OpenAI and Microsoft) for each task.

4. It delivers AI experiences that cover messaging, language translation, web browsing, health inquiries, retail interaction, and much more, all with just simple voice instructions.

Adept's AI Agents at Your Service 🎖️

Adept has begun rolling out access to "Adept Experiments," offering users a firsthand look into their cutting-edge AI technology. Each experiment is a self-contained mini-tool or demo that showcases a part of their underlying tech. The debut experiment, "Workflows," demonstrates the AI's rapid learning and execution capabilities for diverse tasks.

Key Highlights:

1. Adept's "Workflows" lets you create tailored workflows with plain language, optimizing tasks like advancing candidates in hiring processes and extracting structured data from emails for accounting.

2. Powered by the ACT-2 model fine-tuned from the Fuyu family and optimized for UI understanding, Adept's Workflows employs a multimodal AI agent that comprehends user interfaces, data, and takes action by directly perceiving screens like a human. This allows seamless operation without extensive API integrations.

3. Adept's Workflows are easily teachable, learning new workflows in minutes. Tasks are represented through actions like "click" and "type," and crucially, human-in-the-loop supervision ensures collaborative, secure AI interactions.

Control Robots from Your Thoughts 💬

In a move towards seamless human-robot collaboration, researchers at Stanford introduce NOIR, a Neural Signal Operated Intelligent Robot system that allows individuals to effortlessly control robots for everyday tasks using their brain signals.

Key Highlights:

1. NOIR lets users effortlessly delegate 20 diverse household activities, from cooking to cleaning, through EEG. Unlike previous systems confined to specific tasks, NOIR's accessibility requires minimal training, making it a practical addition for users of all backgrounds.

2. The system equips robots with a spectrum of skills for autonomous action. These machines adeptly interpret human goals through parameterized primitive skills, such as Pick(obj-A) or MoveTo(x,y).

3. NOIR also involves modular neural signal decoding pipeline, effectively breaking down complex human intentions into object manipulation, interaction method, and location, enabling nuanced and direct communication with robots.

OpenAI Data Partnerships 👬

OpenAI is inviting organizations to collaborate with them and create both open-source and private datasets for training AI models. The goal is to develop AI models, and ultimately make AGI that is safe and deeply understands various subject matters, industries, cultures, and languages, which would require a broad training dataset.

OpenAI's Data Partnerships offer two avenues - the Open-Source Archive encourages contributions to a publicly accessible dataset, promoting transparency. Private Datasets provide a tailored approach for organizations seeking to keep their data confidential while benefiting from AI models with a nuanced understanding of their domains.

Tools of the Trade ⚒️

• Skybox AI: Utilizes AI to create and customize immersive 360-degree panoramic images, offering creative control like sketching and applying new styles without altering geometry.

• Design Copilot: A UI-UX feedback platform powered by GPT-4V for instant design analysis, guidelines consistency checks, accessibility compliance validation, user flow analysis, and seamless integration with a Figma plugin for efficient design workflows.

• Lightrail: An open-source AI command center for software development, enabling context-aware interactions with active applications and offering extensibility through tracks and a developer-friendly API.

• Encord: Streamlines computer vision workflows with AI-assisted annotation, customizable pipelines, and model-assisted labeling for efficient AI model development.

Hot Takes 🔥

1. you will have a centralized digital clone / personal knowledge base connected to context streams from wearables, your financials, social media, etc. there will be specific agents/chatbot interfaces built off this data for individual purposes (entertainment, “work?”, etc). these will be the new “apps”. ~ Avi Schiffmann

2. Machines are still learning. And always will be. ~ Bojan Tunguz
