Yann Lecun says his estimate for the creation of human-level AI is not that different from Sam Altman or Demis Hassabis - it is possible within 5-10 years

We're about to see a ton of new AI-enabled video game studios in the next couple of years.
The tech is already allowing game developers to operate at a massively higher output.
For example, Nvidia recently announced Edify 3D, which turns prompts into an entire 3D scenes that you can manipulate, pull apart, and edit.
The rundown of how it works:
—Uses 2 AI image generation models (diffusion guided by ControlNet) to create color and depth views from multiple angles
—Then uses a reconstruction model to convert them into 3D artifacts
—Then adds detailed 4k textures using physical based endering
—The result? A holodeck like scene creation in minutes.
An equivalent workflow using Epic Games’ Unreal Engine would require weeks of skilled 3D artist time, as the user would have to click through multiple layers of menus to make detailed edits.

Eric Schmidt says he has been shocked recently by how quickly China are catching up to the US in AI and that the "threat escalation matrix" goes up with each level of improvement in the technology

Runway just dropped a suprise AI image generation model called Frames — and the outputs are absolutely indistinguishable from reality.
Just days after the impressive video expansion tool launch, Runway is now cooking with a new image model.

AI image editing just got another massive upgrade.
BlackForestLabs just dropped FLUX.1 'Tools,'which allow users to add way more control to creations.
The release includes four new features:
—Fill: Next-gen inpainting (including text) that beats Ideogram 2.0 and open-source alternatives
—Depth: Structure-preserving image edits using depth maps, outperforming Midjourney retexture
—Canny: Edge-based image control that outperforms current solutions
—Redux: Mix and recreate images with text prompts
Each tool was released with two versions: A full [Pro] model and an open-access [Dev] model for development purposes.
The [dev] versions outperform paid solutions, while [pro] sets completely new heights across benchmarks.
These type of tools are a Photoshop-type moment for AI image manipulation—but this time, it won’t be locked behind expensive software.
Plus, with Black Forest Labs’ integration with xAI’s Grok, millions of users are likely about to have access to easy-to-use, professional-g...

ChatGPT can now use your Apps on Mac
This is (probably) a first step toward ChatGPT seeing everything on your computer and having full control as an agent
What you need to know:
It can write code in Xcode/VSCode
It can make a git commit in Terminal/iterm2
If you give it permission of course
Available right now to Plus and Team users
Coming soon to Enterprise and Edu
It’s an early beta
>The OpenAI team has been building towards this for almost a year
>The next step beyond this would be to allow ChatGPT to control see and control your desktop as an agent
>Bloomberg just reported that this agent,called the “Operator” will be released in January (covered in depth in The Rundown AI newsletter this morning)
>So App Usage could essentially be the OpenAI team doing bug fixes with humans in the loop feedback prior to Agent release
>Google DeepMind, Anthrophic,and several other startups (some which are in stealth) also reportedly have ag...

NEW: ChatGPT’s ‘Live Camera’ video features were just found in the code of the latest beta.
Six months after their initial demo, OpenAI's visual AI could be ready for testing — and Advanced Voice Mode could soon be getting ‘eyes’
The code discovered in v1.2024.317 reveals:
—Live camera functionality
—Real-time processing
—Voice mode integration
—Visual recognition capabilities
The tech was initially showcased in an OpenAI demo in May, with Advanced Voice Mode interacting with a dog in real time

Shoplexity is Here
Perplexity is taking on Amazon with its new Shopping experience.
It allows you to search for your plans (rather than just what you want to buy),and it will figure out what you need.
You can also take a picture of any item, find it online, and buy it all on Perplexity.
This essentially converts the entire world into a showroom and makes it shoppable.
This is a direct threat to Amazon.Some quick stats:
>54% of product searches in the US start on Amazon
>50% of all products sold on Amazon is sold by third-party sellers
>In effect Amazon leases out space on its website to external sellers, and provides various services including shipping, storage and money back guarantees.
>Perplexity is starting to create an Amazon like experience out of the open web
And also finally we see a path to revenue for Perplexity:
> That pair of Bose headphones you took a photo of is expensive
> Have you considered this pair of very well reviewed [No Brand] headphones?
>Ad revenue that doesn’...
