Sanctuary AI, a company on a mission to create the world’s first human-like intelligence in general purpose robots, has announced a strategic partnership with global mobility technology company Magna. Sanctuary’s CTO Suzanne Gildert explained their mind and hands first approach. Sanctuary AI views humanoid robots as a means to an end, where the end is …
The Unitree H1 Humanoid robot can outrun a human being. In this video we review the Unitree H1 robot and other humanoid robots and briefly consider the expected impacts on our world. Brian WangBrian Wang is a Futurist Thought Leader and a popular Science blogger with 1 million readers per month. His blog Nextbigfuture.com is …
Devin is an AI that was used on the SWE-bench, a challenging benchmark that asks agents to resolve real-world GitHub issues found in open source projects like Django and scikit-learn. Devin correctly resolves 13.86% of the issues end-to-end, far exceeding the previous state-of-the-art of 1.96%. Even when given the exact files to edit, the best …
Investors close to Elon Musk are in talks to help xAI raise $3 billion in a round that would value the artificial-intelligence startup at $18 billion. The venture-capital firm Gigafund and Steve Jurvetson, a prominent Musk backer and co-founder of another venture firm, are among the backers considering investing in the round, the people said. …
June 27, 2023 Elon and Tesla realize that FSD version 12 would be good enough to get off beta. Version 12 won’t be beta — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 27, 2023 March 11, 2024 Said FSD Beta 12.3 is such a big release it should be called Version 13. Elon: FSD Beta 12.3 is such …
Tesla FSD is improving rapidly with FSD 12.3.X going to all Tesla buyers in the North America. FSD 12.4 should be out this month and it is reported to be substantially better. There were reports two weeks ago from some Tesla engineers who believed that FSD would reach robotaxi level by July 2024. There was …
In the first quarter, Tesla produced over 433,000 vehicles and delivered approximately 387,000 vehicles. They deployed 4,053 MWh of energy storage products in Q1, the highest quarterly deployment yet. The delivery numbers were bad for Tesla in Q1. There were fires in Berlin from ecoterrorists and delays in the supply chain because of Persian Gulf …
The all-treatments group is still taking roughly twice as long as the all-controls group (starting from 19 months old, when the experiment began) to get down to a given survival percentage in males. The all treatments female mice are lasting 50% longer than controls. It’ll still be a few months before we can start to …
Elon Musk has targeted an orbital launch cost of $10/kg for Starship, with propellant costs accounting for roughly one-third. Orbital launch cost would be about four times more than the cost of point to point on Earth rocket delivery. Point to point rocket delivery would only need the Starship upper stage. There are only six …
BitNet is paving the way for a new era of 1-bit Large Language Models (LLMs). In this work, we introduce a 1-bit LLM variant, namely BitNet b1.58, in which every single parameter (or weight) of the LLM is ternary {-1, 0, 1}. It matches the full-precision (i.e., FP16 or BF16) Transformer LLM with the same …
Diamond CMOS needs symmetrical doping control like we have for semiconductor silicon and diamond n-MOS is needed. The n-channel diamond MOSFETs are demonstrated. This work will enable the development of energy-efficient and high-reliability CMOS integrated circuits for high-power electronics, integrated spintronics, and extreme sensors under harsh environments. Currently, p-channel diamond MOSFETs have been extensively developed …
