OpenAI’s recently announced GPT-4 version of its ChatGPT text-generating artificial intelligence program is reportedly capable of “human-level performance” on many professional tests, beating 90% of human test-takers. According to the company, GPT-4 reached the 90th percentile on a simulated bar exam, the 93rd percentile on an SAT reading exam, and the 89th percentile on the SAT Math exam. Thanks to advances such as streamlining and large data sets, it produces fewer incorrect answers and is less likely to touch on taboo topics, said OpenAI. Despite some flaws and limitations, GPT-4’s capabilities are impressive, posing concerns about what else AI and…

…LLMs have been in focus since the introduction of ChatGPT and offer great potential when combined with other technologies, the company explained. Sereact noted it has recognized this potential: PickGPT combines the power of LLMs, similar to the models used in ChatGPT, with Sereact's patented computer vision models. This enables robots to process natural language and visual information and correlate multimodal data. They can perceive their environment with unprecedented intelligence and accuracy and understand and execute instructions in natural language. Natural cooperation between humans and robots Employees can now use voice-based instructions or intuitive user interfaces instead of requiring complex…

…Bei Wu, Neurology Live Aging demographic can benefit from ChatGPT In a population health study cited by Surgeon General Murthy, the demographic that is most isolated in America is people over the age of 65. This is also the group that is most affected by physical and cognitive decline due to loneliness. Doctors Xiang Qi and Bei Wu presented to Neurology Live a survey of the benefits of AI in their June paper, “ChatGPT: A Promising Tool to Combat Social Isolation and Loneliness in Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment. “ChatGPT can provide emotional support by offering a nonjudgmental space…

…world state with a single model - similar to ChatGPT for language - but for spatial AI. The robots are designed to be put on the property and turned on. Using only AI, they can understand the lawn around them and efficiently care for it. Electric Sheep’s robots, Verdie and RAM, don’t require an engineer on site. The company says they can be shipped to a campus, HOA or park and begin tasks alongside the crew because of Electric Sheep’s full stack data channel and the large volume of data that the robots are continually trained on. Electric Sheep is…

…are the natives. While the world is abuzz with ChatGPT and big tech layoffs, startups are still on the hunt for top hires. Funding fuels demand for Gen Z talent December 2022 saw a bump in private financing of robotic innovations over 2021 investments, according to The Robot Report. This spike exceeded $1.14 billion over 55 deals ranging from investments in new sensor technologies to full-stack autonomy. For example, European autonomous trucking startup Enride raised $500 million in December, up from $95 million two years earlier. This trend, which is counter to the global tech selloff, will be a boon…

…of roboticists, Viam is luring the engineers that birthed ChatGPT to revolutionize uncrewed systems with new mechanical tasks addressing everyday needs. Imagine generative AI prompts for SLAM, gripping, computer vision, and other highly manipulative tasks with drag-and-drop ease. Ethics and AI as a moving target Interviewing Horowitz recalled my discussion a few months back with Dr. Hal Thorsrud of Agnes Scott College in Georgia. Prof. Thorsrud teaches a novel philosophy course at this liberal arts institution on the “Introduction to Artificial Intelligence.” Similar to Horowitz, Thorsrud envisions an automated world whereby his graduates would be critical in thinking through the…

…Or, they forget that it was happening—we focus on ChatGPT 4 but not on ChatGPT 1 to 4. Volatility is nobody's friend In March, the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Credit Suisse failures shook the robotics industry, especially since many companies had assets with them. Should we still worry? Sharma: The SVB and Swiss bank failures introduced uncertainty. For us, it's difficult because people are less likely to launch new products and indexes. It has dampened things, along with high interest rates, debt ceiling disputes, and the war in Ukraine. However, debtors had a reprieve, and retail banks are also…
