This Week in the Future
Our ML engineer Tom Gause recaps the top AI news of the week
We’re getting closer to R2-D2. Robotic Transformer 2 (RT-2) is a novel vision-language-action (VLA) model that learns from both web and robotics data, and translates this knowledge into generalized instructions for robotic control.
Global security firm MITRE is steering two new artificial intelligence-focused “exploratory teams” for NATO’s Information Systems and Technology Panel. The NATO military alliance intends to apply the teams’ findings to inform its next biannual AI strategy update.
Chief executives of some of the U.S.’s top semiconductor firms poured praise on India’s technology sector at an event on Friday attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the world’s fifth-largest economy looks to position itself as a global chip powerhouse.
