The above considerations have to be carefully factored in while selecting the approach to model different subsystems and modules, hardware or physics-based twins in the digital twin.

Data recording and logging are crucial components of any digital twin project. This data not only serves as the basis for simulation and testing but also facilitates debugging, system optimization and performance analysis. Effective data recording strategies can also assist in the validation of model assumptions, further enhancing system accuracy and reliability.

Digital twins are not merely simulation tools; they represent a fundamental shift in the way we can plan, design, deploy and optimize robotic automation systems in warehouses. A well-designed digital twin, factoring in the aspects outlined in this article, empowers reliable, predictable and efficient order fulfillment, catalyzing innovation and progress in customer satisfaction.

Freely accessible large language models have accelerated the pace of innovation, computer scientists say.

Open-source AI can be defined as software engineers collaborating on various artificial intelligence projects that are open to the public to develop. The goal is to better integrate computing with humanity. In early March, the open source community got their hands on Meta’s LLaMA which was leaked to the public. In barely a month, there are very innovative OpenSource AI model variants with instruction tuning, quantization, quality improvements, human evals, multimodality, RLHF, etc.

Open-source models are faster, more customizable, more private, and capable. They are doing things with $100 and 13B params that even market leaders are struggling with. One open-source solution, Vicuna, is an… More.

This article explores AI in the context of open-sourced alternatives and highlights market dynamics in play.

The team’s research demonstrates a working device that captures, processes and stores visual information. With precise engineering of the doped indium oxide, the device mimics a human eye’s ability to capture light, pre-packages and transmits information like an optical nerve, and stores and classifies it in a memory system like the way our brains can.

Summary: Researchers developed a single-chip device that mimics the human eye’s capacity to capture, process, and store visual data.

This groundbreaking innovation, fueled by a thin layer of doped indium oxide, could be a significant leap towards applications like self-driving cars that require quick, complex decision-making abilities. Unlike traditional systems that need external, energy-intensive computation, this device encapsulates sensing, information processing, and memory retention in one compact unit.

As a result, it enables real-time decision-making without being hampered by processing extraneous data or being delayed by transferring information to separate processors.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has put AI in the hands of people, and those who don’t use it could struggle to keep their jobs in future, Jaspreet Bindra, Founder and MD, Tech Whisperer Lt. UK, surmised at the Mint Digital Innovation Summit on June 9.

“We never think about electricity until it’s not there. That’s how AI used to be. It was always in the background and we never thought about it. With generative AI it has come into our hands, and 200–300 million of us are like, wow!” said Bindra.

He noted that while AI won’t replace humans at their jobs, someone using AI very well could. He urged working professionals to “recalibrate” and embrace generative AI as a “powerful tool” created by humans, instead of looking at it as a threat.

Meta-formerly-Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has a genius new plot to add some interest to Meta-owned products: just jam in some generative AI, absolutely everywhere.

Axios reports that in an all-hands meeting on Thursday, Zuckerberg unveiled a barrage of generative AI tools and integrations, which are to be baked into both Meta’s internal and consumer-facing products, Facebook and Instagram included.

“In the last year, we’ve seen some really incredible breakthroughs — qualitative breakthroughs — on generative AI,” Zuckerberg told Axios in a statement, “and that gives us the opportunity to now go take that technology, push it forward, and build it into every single one of our products.”
