Join me on a tour and a look at what we at @GiantAITalks have been working on.

[Robert Scoble @Scobleizer]

The first tour of @GiantAITalks's Robot Lab.

I hear @reidhoffman just turned a short blog post into a 230 page book using AI. Everyone has been mass producing gibberish on the internet for so long, all they can think to do with AI is produce more gibberish. The value in AI is in reducing the noise, not in amplifying it.

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@claughlin @kittukolluri @nealkhosla @vkhosla Kudos for keeping it real. Still, credit where credit is due. Good investors structure their investment and their portfolios so that their interests are aligned with their companies, and stay aligned, even when things get a little strange.

Am I the only one who has noticed that #chatcpt responds better when you say please?

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@DrHughHarvey You've read Thinking Fast and Slow? There is also Buying Fast and Slow. The fast system makes fast buying decisions, it's easily influenced by bullshit. The slow thinking system avoids BS, but decides slower, and buys slower. Of course, it also writes bigger checks...

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@araskin You had expected otherwise?

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@GaryMarcus There is nothing unreasonable about this. Using web aware LLM's like GopherCite/Sparrow, LaMDA, or WebGPT (etc.) Is an incredibly natural way to retrieve information. Most of us didn't even notice that we had to build a pretty sophisticated skill to use search engines effectively

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

#ChatGPT is amazingly effective at inducing Twitter posts.

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@_jasonwei @LukeZettlemoyer Keep up the good work!

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@zackkanter It's actually quite a challenge to find people with the skill set a board requires and real technical knowledge. I think this reality very much is underappreciated. This becomes even more true for highly technical "deep tech" companies.

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@Scobleizer @samanthagwolfe @_LucasRizzotto What am I supposed to be talking more about?

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@woputz Sometimes a customer has a very real need that they just don't have the language to articulate clearly.

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

Any fool can quote. The point is to provide a citation.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

"Any fool can know. The point is to understand."

@Scobleizer @TZdisruption @Tesla Might be time to get cracking on those virtual beings!

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@mcpli Did anyone notice that one of the markings mentioned specifically in the document is "SI"? Officially "Special Intelligence", this used to be COMINT and generally means signal intercepts. One can only wonder... whose signals?

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

@Scobleizer @elonmusk You will need a hyper scalable low-cost platform that amortizes its R&D cost across all useful tasks.

[Delip Rao e/σ @deliprao]

I am absolutely in love with this mouse-over stuff @huggingface API documentations have. It clearly shows they understand their users' pain -- ML APIs have too many arguments. If you are wondering why 🤗 is so popular, little things like these go a long way in reducing friction.

We are on Reddit with a timelapse of our construction shop building one of our robots: https://t.co/MHfCUw0bp1

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

How @GiantAITalks uses computer vision in its robot, we call "The Universal Worker."

All to help humans with an extra set of hands.

@Scobleizer @GiantAITalks Hey, let's not get carried away.
I think I might just be a regular smart guy. I'm flattered, really, but Andrej is kind of on another level.

[Adrian Kaehler @adrian_kaehler]

More about the AI/ML/Computer Vision work we have been doing at Giant AI to bring an extra set of hands to workers everywhere: https://t.co/oinjG1H6gp

Our goal is to make it easy to train to do a variety of things humans hate to do (like loading a machine).
