That statement, now signed by twice as many concerned citizens, warned about the risk of human extinction from AI, which was perhaps a bit of an overreach, because … well, extinction? Come on! That’s just a movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger.

What they should have warned about was jobs — the redundancy and destitution of most of humanity, unless there’s some kind of universal income funded by taxes on robots.

What no-one talks about, as the AI revolution unfolds in stock market hype and scientific gung-ho, is what they’re all really trying to do.

The development of artificial intelligence has entered a pivotal phase. With groundbreaking advancements in large models such as ChatGPT and Sora, AI is approaching what has been termed as “technological singularity”.The allure of AI’s potential is undeniable, but its immense potential is accompanied by significant risks including deepfakes, frauds and autonomous weapons systems.

The complexities and interconnectedness of AI pose a new global challenge. Hence, building a coordinated global governance framework for AI is no longer optional; it is an urgent necessity.

AI transcends national boundaries, creating both global opportunities and risks that no country alone can manage. Hence, countries across the world need to work together to eliminate the risks.

Basically chat gpt can allow people that need to do more jobs can actually do several if not all jobs needed. Also essentially increase ones mental capacity and mental health due to that chat gpt can be almost like an external brain interface that can do nearly any job so that people can make even more money. Also people think this would replace people I believe it augments people like Ironman from marvel comics allowing to do tasks in seconds.#Ironman

A new breed of overemployed workers has emerged, turning to artificial intelligence (AI)-powered language models like ChatGPT to handle a significant portion of their job responsibilities.

“ChatGPT does like 80% of my job,” stated one worker, while another, currently holding down four robot-performed jobs, says, “Five would be overkill.”

As the popularity of AI-powered tools like ChatGPT continues to soar, concerns are growing about the impact on the global job market. With the potential for jobs to be automated and replaced by chatbots, experts are warning of a possible future where human workers become obsolete.

In today’s AI news, When rivals take a different approach and succeed, it sometimes pays to change course. This is what Sam Altman said OpenAI will do, according to a Reddit AMA session on Friday. Altman was asked about DeepSeek, which has taken the tech world by storm after rolling out top-performing AI models that are relatively cheap to use.

Then, Andreessen Horowitz general partner and Mistral board member Anjney “Anj” Midha first spied DeepSeek’s jaw-dropping performance six months ago. That’s when DeepSeek introduced Coder V2, which rivaled OpenAI’s GPT4-Turbo for coding-specific tasks, according to a paper it released last year.

S V3 and R1 models. These efforts “achieved significant bypass rates, with little to no specialized knowledge or expertise being necessary.” ‘ + And, MLCommons, a nonprofit AI safety working group, has teamed up with AI dev platform Hugging Face to release one of the world’s largest collections of public domain voice recordings for AI research. The dataset, called Unsupervised People’s Speech, contains more than a million hours of audio spanning at least 89 languages.

In videos, in this episode of “How To Build The Future,” YC President and CEO Garry Tan sits down with Bob to discuss the lessons learned from his time at OpenAI, scaling laws, his advice for startups, and what all of this means for the jobs of the future.

Then, “Maybe I Got Carried Away” is an experimental short film that fuses playful visuals with a surreal narrative. It was created by [@panaviscope](https://www.youtube.com/@panaviscope) using Sora generated shots. The story follows a protagonist who begins releasing vibrant balloons into the sky as a personal act of rebellion against her city’s monotony.

Welcome to our comprehensive guide on “Nano Robots.” In this enlightening video, we will take a look at what nano robots are, how they work, and the ways in which they are being used today. We will examine the potential of nano robots and how they could be used in the future. We will also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using nano robots.

Nano robots are made up of very small robots that are only a few nanometers across and are powered by electricity, magnets, or light. These robots can be used for many different things, like fixing damaged cells, keeping an eye on and controlling the environment, and fighting off diseases and infections. Nano robots can also be used to do hard jobs like surgery, making things, and even going to space.

These robots are very accurate and good at what they do, which makes them perfect for use in medicine and industry. Nano robots can be programmed to do many different things, like keep an eye on and control the environment, find and fix damage, and even fight off diseases and infections. They can also be used for more complicated jobs, like surgery, making things, and going to space.

Nano robots have a lot of benefits, such as being small, accurate, and fast. They are also very flexible because they can be programmed to do many different things and used in many different ways. But there are some problems with using nano robots, such as the cost of making them and the chance that they will break down.

In today’s AI news, Mark Zuckerberg announced a huge leap in Meta Platforms’s capital spending this year to between $60 billion to $65 billion, an increase driven by artificial intelligence and a massive new data center.

Zuckerberg plans to increase the company’s capital expenditures by as much as roughly 70% over 2024.

In other advancements, Hugging Face has achieved a remarkable breakthrough in AI, introducing vision-language models that run on devices as small as smartphones while outperforming their predecessors that require massive data centers. The company’s new SmolVLM-256M model, requiring less than one gigabyte of GPU memory, surpasses the performance of its Idefics 80B model from just 17 months ago — a system 300 times larger.

And, Anthropic has launched a new feature for its “Claude” family of AI models, one that enables the models to cite and link back to sources when answering questions about uploaded documents. The new feature, appropriately dubbed “Citations,” is now available for developers through Anthropic’s API.

Meanwhile, can AI agents reliably click on all images showing motorcycles or traffic lights for us? It might be too early to tell, considering that a robot will essentially have to tell a website that it is not a robot. However, it looks like at least one of OpenAI’s Operator users was able to have the AI agent beat CAPTCHAs for him.

The Stargate Project is a new company which intends to invest $500 billion over the next four years building new AI infrastructure for OpenAI in the United States. We will begin deploying $100 billion immediately. This infrastructure will secure American leadership in AI, create hundreds of thousands of American jobs, and generate massive economic benefit for the entire world. This project will not only support the re-industrialization of the United States but also provide a strategic capability to protect the national security of America and its allies.

The initial equity funders in Stargate are SoftBank, OpenAI, Oracle, and MGX. SoftBank and OpenAI are the lead partners for Stargate, with SoftBank having financial responsibility and OpenAI having operational responsibility. Masayoshi Son will be the chairman.

Arm, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Oracle, and OpenAI are the key initial technology partners. The buildout is currently underway, starting in Texas, and we are evaluating potential sites across the country for more campuses as we finalize definitive agreements.
