Somehow the relevance of this research using LLM, AI to train robots is not fully appreciated i think. If we can train robots in simulated worlds and that learning can be applied in real world applications, it seems that learning for Robots has no problems with regard to enough trainingdata or am i missing something ? Also this could really accelerate the applications for all kind of tasks. https://eureka-research.github.io/dr-eureka/ #AI#Robots#DrEureka#LLM
a crazy development over the last couple years is the revival of computer architecture
for most of my career, CPUs and GPUs just worked, and while there were some wild ideas, the problems hadn’t yet emerged
with #AI, we’ve moved so far from the low level, that the existing chips aren’t working all that well anymore. I’d argue that computer architecture is now a skill needed for AI engineers these days
The #media problem: best be demarcated by the necessity to create better incentives for profitable media bus models *put pursuit of truth at the center of the value hierarchy -a challenge: given -lion’s share of the media IDU: become reliant on advertising as the sole profit engine. & with: #AI & advanced ad targeting capabilities, consumers have been relegated to pushing buttons while entrapped in our indiv. Skinner boxes-.
I keep seeing these stories about huge investments Microsoft, Amazon, and other major tech companies are making around the world. They’re almost always for massive, resource-hungry data centers to power their AI ambitions.
I would like to see if I can interact with my own writing and scribbles I have saved over the past years.
Could I use a chatbot for that?
So: What would you advise me to use if I would want to create a chatbot to interact with my own digitalised thoughts? ;-)
I would rather not have my data, so my writings or my prompts, go to any company, or if I have to because that's not possible, I want to pay them so that my data stays private.

#Apple#iPad#AI#GenerativeAI#Marketing: "Smartphones and tablets were invented to enhance our lived experience, to make it easier to leave the house and go to the beach and meet up with friends — just a good camera-computer combo that fits in your pocket.
Theoretically, our phones and tablets will become even more useful with AI, serving as virtual assistants that can do all the boring stuff we don’t want to, like summarizing all your new emails and filtering out junk. There’s a world in the not too distant future, according to AI proponents, where you can simply tell Siri or Google “order my usual breakfast from the coffee shop near the office, I’ll be there in 10 minutes to pick it up,” and the bot will do just that.
We’re not there yet, however. And so far, the consumer applications for AI are simultaneously underwhelming and dystopian.
Distorted images may be harmless social media fodder, until they become propaganda spread by bad actors."
#AI#GenerativeAI#HumanRights: "You point out that AI isn’t just some benign cloud floating above our heads. It’s based on material extraction and the exploitation of workers, mainly in the global south, and it’s incredibly polluting to run. But so much of this is hidden from view. How do we go about tackling these impacts?
It is a huge question. One way of dealing with it is by looking at the question of AI adoption from an ESG [environmental, social and governance] perspective. All of the equipment that we use, the phones that we’re talking on now, are built from minerals often taken from conflict regions, including with child labour. Being aware of that hopefully can help shift societal demands and consumer habits. You can use generative AI to make a hilarious meme, but how much water and energy are you expending? Couldn’t you just pick up a pencil, and might that actually be more satisfying?
Do you sometimes wish that AI could be put back on the shelf?
It’s not an all-or-nothing equation between banning AI or embracing it into every aspect of your life. It’s a question of choosing what we want to use AI for. Being critical and asking questions doesn’t mean that you’re against AI: it just means you’re against AI hype."
