MIT’s Daniela Rus isn’t worried that robots will take over the world. Instead, she envisions robots and humans teaming up to achieve things that neither could do alone.
We’re still years away from seeing physical quantum computers break into the market with any scale and reliability, but don’t give up on deep tech just yet. The market for high-level quantum computer science — which applies quantum principles to manage complex computations in areas like finance and artificial intelligence — appears to be quickening its pace.
In the latest development, a startup out of San Sebastian, Spain, called Multiverse Computing has raised €25 million (or $27 million) in an equity funding round led by Columbus Venture Partners. The funding values the startup at €100 million ($108 million), and it will be used in two main areas. The startup plans to continue building out its existing business working with startups in verticals like manufacturing and finance, and it wants to forge new efforts to work more closely with AI companies building and operating large language models.
In both cases, the pitch is the same, said CEO Enrique Lizaso Olmos: “optimization.”
Generative AI is an utterly transformative technology that is already impacting how organizations and individuals work. But what does the future have in store for this incredible technology? Read on for my top predictions.
We now have generative AI tools that can see, hear, speak, read, write, or create. Increasingly, generative AIs will be able to do many of these things at once – such as being able to create text and images together. As an example, the third iteration of the text-to-image tool Dall-E is reportedly able to generate high-quality text embedded in its images, putting it ahead of rival image-generator tools. Then there was the 2023 announcement that ChatGPT can now see, hear, and speak, as well as write.
So, one of my predictions is that generative AIs will continue this move towards multi-modal AIs that can create in multiple ways – and in real-time, just like the human brain.
Offshore floating solar projects can help overcome limitations of land while tapping into maximum sunlight in sun rich regions.
The floating energy generator is an ideal energy solution for tropical islands that have conventionally relied on fossil fuels for their energy needs.
Droughts led to a drop in generation from hydroelectric plants, and fossil fuels filled the gap.
By pulling together several different generative models into an easy-to-use package controlled with the push of a button, Lore Machine heralds the arrival of one-click AI.
Elon Musk’s OpenAI lawsuit—and OpenAI’s response—raise questions about generative AI, artificial general intelligence and the relationship between the two.
Generative AI is quickly transforming the way we do things in almost every facet of life, including the evolving landscape of data management and cybersecurity. Cohesity, a company focused on AI-powered data management and security, launched Cohesity Gaia to apply generative AI in a unique way designed to enable customers to access, analyze, and interact with their data.
Cohesity Gaia is a generative AI-powered conversational search assistant. Cohesity blends Large Language Models with an enterprise’s own data and provides organizations with a tool to interact with and extract value from their information repositories. The platform is designed to enable natural language interactions, making it easier for users to query their data without needing to navigate complex databases or understand specialized query languages.
At its heart, Cohesity Gaia leverages generative AI to facilitate conversational interactions with data. Instead of searching through files or databases in the traditional manner, users can engage in a dialogue with the data, asking questions and receiving contextually relevant, accurate answers.
