Deepmind Gato News Today

AI has moved from the realm of science fiction to become a practical and powerful asset

AI's promise and perils are profound. This demands deep wisdom and caution in building models that benefit (and don't threaten) humanity.

The company turns to AI-powered solutions to help its business bounce back in an uncertain economy.

A report from Accenture says that while AI still in its infancy, a subset of the field called foundation models could have an overwhelming impact on businesses.

Generally Intelligent, a research startup with backing from OpenAI vets, is aiming to develop general-purpose AI systems.

What does it even mean to understand?. “AI Doesn’t Understand Much—But Maybe A Little” is published by Sam Brinson.

Possible U.F.O. sightings, A.I. breakthroughs and the Jan. 6 hearings all help us understand how hard it to grasp what is happening right in front of us.

There are many paths on the road to AGI. Nando de Freitas recently wrote that “Scale is all you need” following the release of Deepmind’s Gato paper. Larger and larger transformers, with language interfaces doing supervised learning on large datasets is one such touted path. While Gato trains and evaluates on data from physical robots, there is a larger paradigm on getting to AGI that fully bypasses embodiment or robotics. This is the path pursued by OpenAI/Anthropic, who once famously dis...

Google DeepMind lead researcher Dr. Nando de Freitas has claimed on Twitter that artificial general intelligence is all but here.

Big tech's all-in on deep learning as the path to human-level AI. But who says we can even achieve such a feat with a binary computer system?
