GPU inception, with graphics cores processing AI workloads to generate graphics again.
Scientists trained an AI system to think before speaking with a technique called QuietSTaR. The inner monologue improved common sense reasoning and doubled math performance.
Figure 1 learned how to make coffee by watching a human do it, and now it can speak to you like a person.

Mercedes-Benz is partnering with U.S.-based robotics firm Apptronik to explore ways that the latter’s humanoid robots can be used at its factories.
A month ago, we were impressed by these robots being able to pick things up, put them in the right spot, open doors and charge themselves. But new video released hours ago makes it clear that autonomous humanoid work is starting to accelerate like mad.
Norwegian robotics company 1X is OpenAI’s other bet in the humanoid game – the bigger recent headline being its investment in, and collaboration with American company Figure.
1X’s Eve robots don’t have legs; they roll around on wheeled platforms. They don’t have the extraordinary hands that companies like Sanctuary AI, Figure and Tesla are making, settling instead for stumpy-looking claw grippers. And they’re pretty underwhelming to look at, too – their smiley faces, frankly, look silly, and as we’ve noted before, they’re draped in little tracksuity arrangements that make them appear like they’re late for their luge race.
Trials in UK, France and the Netherlands indicate tool can predict if patient will experience problems from surgery and radiotherapy.
Researchers taught an AI to think before it speaks like a human’s inner monologue — and found that it made the model smarter.
Stability AI Is Falling Apart
Posted in robotics/AI
AI image generation company Stability AI is in big trouble.
Several key AI developers who worked on Stable Diffusion, the company’s popular text-to-image generator, have resigned, Forbes reports.
Stability AI CEO Emad Mostaque announced the news during an all-hands meeting last week, per Forbes, revealing that three of the five researchers who originally created the foundational tech that powers Stable Diffusion at two German universities, had left.
