    Not Slowing Down: GAIA-1 to GPT Vision Tips, Nvidia B100 to Bard vs LLaVA

    From GAIA-1 and UniSim showing that new worlds can be imagined with synthetic data, to Nvidia B100 and X100 suggesting no slow down in compute, this video will argue that AI is not slowing down. I’ll cover what that means in Robotics, Audio, Vision and even fraud, from Disney to LLaVA, Elevenlabs to exclusives from The Information (Nov 6 OpenAI Developer Conference) and Semianalysis. https://www.patreon.com/AIExplained GAIA-1 9B: https://wayve.ai/thinking/scaling-gaia-1/ GAIA 1 Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.17080 Semianalysis Tesla: https://www.semianalysis.com/p/tesla-ai-capacity-expansion-h100 and B100 plus X100: https://www.semianalysis.com/p/nvidias-plans-to-crush-competition UniSim: https://universal-simulator.github.io/unisim/?s=09 Tesla Optimus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2vj0WcvH5c Disney Bot: https://www.theverge.com/2023/10/10/23911040/disney-imagineering-robot-bipedal-balance-free-walking-concept Levatas ChatGPT robodog: https://twitter.com/svpino/status/1650832349008125952?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1650832349008125952%7Ctwgr%5Ea9dcf33fe398752911e6868838cdef45850dd2e1%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fastcompany.com%2F90889271%2Fboston-dynamics-spot-chatgpt-brains Somatic Cleaner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xY5zqKRy8A8&t=38s The Information Report: https://www.theinformation.com/articles/openais-revenue-crossed-1-3-billion-annualized-rate-ceo-tells-staff?utm_source=ti_app&rc=sy0ihq Reuters Report: https://www.reuters.com/technology/openai-plans-major-updates-lure-developers-with-lower-costs-sources-2023-10-11/#:~:text=This%20could%20theoretically%20slash%20costs,developing%20and%20selling%20AI%20software.

    Blink and you missed it, but there have been 4 developments this week that could have major consequences. From a change of heart on maximising engagement from OpenAI - and doubts growing over whether to pursue superintelligence at all - to a startling new survey of 2778 AI researchers - full 38 page highlights.
