If developed and implemented ethically, emotionally intelligent AI can greatly enhance how we interact with and benefit from AI technologies in our daily lives. But basically it seems that Google was late to the LLM game because Demis Hassabis was 100% focused on AGI and did not see LLM’s as a path toward AGI. Perhaps now he sees it as a potential path, but it’s probably possible that he is just now focusing on LLM’s so that Google does not get too far behind in the generative AI race. But his ultimate goal and obsession is to create AGI that can solve real problems like diseases.
In 2024, Gemini and ChatGPT caught the spotlight, but now Claude 3 has emerged as the leader in AI benchmarks. While benchmarks matter, only the practical usefulness of Claude 3 will tell if it is truly superior. However, with AI models becoming more common and diverse, it’s unlikely that one single model will emerge as the ultimate winner. So, for now, my recommendation is to keep experimenting and find a model that works for you.
Anthropic has implemented safeguards against this attack on its systems and has also shared the findings openly so other AI companies can work on mitigations. Stable Audio 2’s capability to generate 3-minute songs is a big step forward for AI music tools. But it still has some issues, like occasional glitches and "soulless" vocals, showing that AI has limits in capturing the emotion of human-made music. Also, a recent open letter from artists like Billie Eilish and Katy Perry raises concerns about the ethics of AI-generated music.
RT-Sketch focuses on the essential parts of the sketch, ignoring distracting details. This could change the way we interact with devices like smartphones, smart speakers, and virtual assistants. Imagine having a more natural, engaging conversation with Siri, Alexa, or other AI helpers.
While AI video quality has taken mind-blowing leaps, the tooling to reliably and accurately shape outputs hasn’t scaled with it—until now. This upgrade signals the start of AI video generation transitioning from luck-based ‘slot machine’ outputs into a real tool that creators can confidently control. By harnessing the power of
