NEWS OF THE DAY
Robot gives ChatGPT a body
What: Figure AI, who recently received $675m from OpenAI, Microsoft, Nvidia and Amazon has released a video showing their Figure robot.
Key points:
"All behaviors are learned (not teleoperated) and run at normal speed (1.0x).
We feed images from the robot's cameras and transcribed text from speech captured by onboard microphones to a large multimodal model trained by OpenAI that understands both images and text.
The model processes the entire history of the conversation, including past images, to come up with language responses, which are spoken back to the human via text-to-speech. The same model is responsible for deciding which learned, closed-loop behavior to run on the robot to fulfill a given command, loading particular neural network weights onto the GPU and executing a policy."
Noteworthy: Not only is AI a technology that will change our society in more ways than one, it gives us the ability to fast forward a lot of sci-fi use cases for other tech like robots.

Example how Advertising will change with this new feature
What: At long last, Midjourney has added a new feature that ensures character consistency, completing the final piece of the puzzle. Why is this significant? Because with this enhancement, you can now use Midjourney for any type of visual content creation. Expect to see a surge in ads generated by Midjourney, as it becomes possible to create a fictional model to showcase a hundred types of t-shirts, or have the same model try out various types of burgers, and so on. You get the picture.
Noteworthy: This will accelerate the job displacement in the marketing industries. Sam Altman recently said: “95% of what marketers use agencies, strategists and creative professionals for will be handled by AI at nearly no cost.” Jobs are being lost a lot faster then they are being replaced in the AI revolution.
