🚨 Week’s Update 🚨
This week we are starting strong. Former NASA, DARPA, and Deepmind alumni got together to create Field AI, a company that creates robots that adapt to ever-changing environments.
They aim to create Field Foundation Models, the equivalent to Language FMs like ChatGPT but applied to the real world. They claim the robots require little-to-no supervision, are fully autonomous, and don’t require guidance (no need for GPS, maps, and so on) to work in unknown environments.
Take this with a pinch of salt, sounds too good to be true. Even if they are the best at it, navigating out-of-distribution (unknown and very different) environments is the hardest thing in AI robotics.
If true, this is the holy grail. Let’s see if they actually deliver.
Moving on, OpenAI, while playing games with all of us (more on that below) continues to ship interesting features to their ChatGPT Plus subscription. This time, it allows the model to learn about you with a new memory feature.
Hold your horses just one second. Interesting feature, but not an extraordinary one. They are simply adding this to the ‘system instructions’ part of the prompt they send every time you ask something.
Don’t be fooled, this is prompt engineering, not a model enhancement.
On the robotics side, Freethink has released an interesting article that pretty much sums up all the humanoids currently being developed at the frontier of AI.
Furthermore, as you know, AI will play a huge role in warfare. Among the companies that will make sure this happens is Anduril, which just released a next-generation vehicle with insane capabilities.
But AI also…
