Alef Aeronautics has announced that its revolutionary Model A flying car has now received 2,850 pre-orders for a total of $850 million.
Founded by three MIT alumni, Lightmatter aims to revolutionize chip communication and calculation using photonic technologies.
Three weeks after surpassing Google’s parent company Alphabet to become the fourth most valuable company in the world, NVIDIA has now overtaken Saudi Aramco in market value.
This makes the AI chipmaker the third most valuable company in the world and in the United States, trailing only behind Apple Inc. and Microsoft Corp.
At the close of Friday’s trading session, NVIDIA’s market capitalization stood at $2.06 trillion, marking its inaugural venture above the $2 trillion threshold.
Generative AI attracts headlines, but predictive AI delivers greater value. This article covers three ways predictive AI eclipses generative AI.
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.
