EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW TODAY

☕️ Robot Baristas

Get this - Robots are serving up coffee at a Starbucks in South Korea!

The tech company Naver has little wheeled robots called "Rookies" zooming around their office building. They bring people coffee, lunch, you name it! The Rookies even have robotic arm buddies called "Ambidex" to help out.

It's like a full robot cafe running on cloud computing wizardry.

Maybe robot baristas will be the next big thing? 
As long as they don't spill my pumpkin spice latte, I'm in!

Hugging Face Gets an Unwanted Guests

Yo! Did you hear the latest?

The nice people at Hugging Face had some bad guys break into their special space for AI models.

The sneaky hackers stole secret codes that let people into accounts and apps. Hugging Face is very sorry and is changing all the codes.

They are getting cyber cops to find the bad guys too.

Hopefully, Hugging Face can make their space extra secure so no more bad guys can get in and cause trouble!

Wikipedia Survives ChatGPT`s Takeover

Everybody thought Wikipedia was doomed when ChatGPT came along with its fancy AI answers.

But don't count out the crowdsourced encyclopedia just yet!

New research shows Wikipedia is still kicking - more people are viewing and editing pages than before ChatGPT existed.

Looks like we humans still want those long, fact-filled articles sometimes.

Though who knows, maybe AI Wikis will be the next big thing? As long as the robots don't take over completely!

AMD vs NVIDIA start AI Chip Brawl

Look out, 👀 

There's an AI chip battle brewing between tech titans AMD and NVIDIA! Just a day after NVIDIA unveiled their new "Rubin" AI brain, AMD came out swinging with their own Ryzen AI chips for laptops and super-powered desktop PCs.

It's like two playground bullies fighting over who has the coolest toys. AMD says their chips will be the fastest around for gaming and creating stuff.

But NVIDIA won't back down easily in this AI arms race!

May the best silicon win?

Microsoft`s Spy Screenshots Cause Privacy Panic

Oh no, Microsoft is in hot water again! 

Their new ‘Recall’ feature takes screenshots of everything you do on your PC.

While Microsoft says it's just to help you find stuff easier, security experts are calling it a "privacy disaster." Turns out the pics get stored in a regular folder that any old hacker could peek into.

Yikes! Looks like Microsoft will have to do some serious work to make Recall more secure before unleashing it on unsuspecting users.

Nobody wants their computer taking secret pics!

AI Research

Microsoft researchers introduced Aurora, a cutting-edge AI model trained on over 1 million hours of weather and climate data, delivering highly accurate weather forecasts.

Source: Microsoft

The Details:

  • Versatile Accuracy: Aurora excels in predicting a wide range of weather scenarios, including extreme events and data-sparse regions.

  • Fast Predictions: The 1.3 billion parameter model generates a 5-day global air pollution forecast in under 60 seconds.

  • High-Resolution Forecasts: Aurora provides 10-day global forecasts with higher accuracy than top existing models.

Why It Matters: Aurora's advancements could revolutionize weather forecasting, potentially making 100% accurate predictions a reality sooner than expected.

New Tech

Amazon introduces Project PI, an AI tool utilizing computer vision to detect defective, damaged, or incorrect products before shipping.

How Project PI works

The Details:

  • Imaging Tunnel: Products are scanned to identify defects or errors in color and size.

  • Defect Analysis: Project PI checks for similar issues to find root causes, allowing employees to review and decide on discounting and reselling.

  • Customer Insight: A multimodal AI compares customer reviews with Project PI images to understand dissatisfaction.

Why It Matters: Active in some North American warehouses, Project PI aims to enhance shipment quality, reduce returns, and lower carbon emissions from transportation and packaging.
