If you want to understand how the public will respond to your offerings, large language models can simulate users who answer questions about capabilities, features, promotions, or prices.
Generative AI has proven that it can produce text, images, audio, video, and code. The world’s most valuable pharmaceutical company is betting billions that it can produce drugs as well.
Simulating complex physical systems through traditional numerical methods is slow and expensive, and simulations based on machine learning are usually specialized for a specific type of system, such as water in a pipe or atmosphere surrounding a planet.
Google added a music generator to Gemini and YouTube, putting a model that produces synthetic songs in front of hundreds of millions of users.
OpenAI plans to shut down its video generator Sora in a sudden retreat from the video market.
xAI launched a video generator that topped an independent quality ranking at a fraction of competitors’ prices.
Downloads of mobile AI apps and resulting revenue are surging.
Google launched a cheaper, faster successor to its flagship image generator, delivering greater interactivity at roughly half the price.
Makers of software that runs large companies saw their share prices plunge as investors worried that AI systems could undermine their businesses. This week, their stocks rebounded somewhat as Anthropic partnered with some of the same companies.
Image generators often mangle text. An open-weights model outperforms open and proprietary competitors in text rendering.
Current methods that produce 3D scenes from text or images are slow and produce inconsistent results. Researchers introduced a technique that generates detailed, coherent 3D scenes seconds.
AI has a new revenue stream, and it looks a lot like old web banner ads.
