📌 This week's AI Brew summary:

• AI Spotlight 🚀: Elon Musk launches TruthGPT

• Real-Life AI Stories 🤖: META launches SAM and Adobe is taking video customisation to another level

• AI Jargon Buster 🤷‍♂️: What are GPUs?

• Cool Corner 😎: Humane’s Wearable AI Projector - is this the “iPhone” killer?

• 🚀 Elon Musk is at it again, teasing a potential rival to OpenAI and recruiting Deepmind scientists to lead the effort. 😎 More recently, Musk incorporated X.AI, adding more fuel to the speculation around his AI plans. 🔥

  In a recent interview with Fox News, Musk announced his plans to create a new chatbot called TruthGPT to combat political bias in AI. Musk expressed concerns about current AI systems being trained to be politically correct, which he believes can lead to a dystopian future. 😱

  He explained that he's creating a maximum truth-seeking AI that seeks to understand the universe, as this will be the best path to AI safety.

  Musk warns that the risks of AI going wayward are far beyond poor aircraft design and automobile production. He even shared that his one-on-one meeting with Obama as President was to encourage AI regulation rather than promote his companies. 👀

  With X.AI in hand and Twitter renamed to X Corp, who knows what master plan Musk is crafting? One thing's for sure - things are definitely going to move pretty fast with Elon around. 🚀

• 🤖 META's latest innovation, the Segment Anything Model (SAM), can identify objects in images and videos with insane accuracy - even things it hasn't been trained on! This means you can prompt it to segment virtually anything you want - and I do mean anything! 🤯

  With this breakthrough technology, you can achieve pixel-perfect precision in identifying objects and people in an image, which is a total game-changer for various applications. 🚀 For instance, autonomous vehicles can use this technology to stay aware of their surroundings, which is pretty awesome. 🚗

  I even gave it a try myself through a demo, and let me tell you, it's absolutely fantastic! 🔍 Overall, this new development is super exciting and opens up new possibilities in the world of AI. Try yourself here —>

• 🎥 Adobe is taking video customization to the next level with its Firefly generative AI suite, now available on Creative Cloud! 😎 With text-to-video-editing capabilities, Firefly allows users to edit videos using simple text prompts. 💬 

  This means you can change a video's color grade, background, and shade, create subtitles, logos, and custom graphics, all without lifting a finger! 🤯 No more struggling with complicated video editing software or hiring expensive specialists. 🔍

  Plus, with the ability to convert scripts into detailed storyboards and b-roll recommendations, Firefly is a dream come true for content creators everywhere. 🤩 Adobe's latest offering is sure to supercharge its existing millions of creative users, and we can't wait to see the amazing content they'll produce with this new tool. 🚀

👀 Elon Musk has reportedly bought thousands of GPUs for his Twitter AI project. But what are GPUs, and why are they so important for AI development?

In simple terms, GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) are like the muscle cars of computer processors - built for speed and power! 💪

In the world of AI development, GPUs are crucial for processing and analyzing large amounts of data quickly and efficiently. Think of them as the caffeine shot that AI needs to get its work done. ☕️

For example, let's say you want to train an AI model to recognize objects in images. This requires analyzing thousands, if not millions, of images to identify common patterns and features that correspond to specific objects. Using CPUs alone, this process would take forever! But with GPUs, you can speed up the process by performing parallel calculations on the data, resulting in faster and more accurate results. ⚡️

Plus, GPUs are also essential for the development of generative AI, which can automatically create new content, such as images, videos, and even text. This requires massive amounts of computational power to create realistic and accurate content. By leveraging the parallel processing capabilities of GPUs, developers can create more sophisticated and realistic generative AI models that are practically indistinguishable from the real thing. 🤯

So, in Musk's Twitter AI project, the thousands of GPUs are likely being used to train and run generative AI models that can automatically generate natural language responses to tweets. By using GPUs, the project is able to process massive amounts of data and generate responses more quickly and accurately than would be possible using CPUs alone. Talk about a power move! 💥

• It’s been widely speculated that Humane’s “iPhone killer” would be a projector of sorts, and that appears to be the case. Humane, the top-secret tech startup founded by ex-Apple vets Imran Chaudhri and Bethany Bongiorno, just showed off the first demo for its projector-based wearable at a TED talk.

  Humane AI is a new standalone wearable device that's built entirely from the ground up for artificial intelligence. It has a "catch me up" feature that gives you a quick summary of important things you might have missed, and you can ask the AI anything from where to find a gift for your spouse to whether you can eat that candy bar. The device also has a translation feature that translates your voice into another language using your own voice model for natural conversation.
