AI will eventually be capable of performing most of the tasks humans can do. My neighbor's child is only 6 years old now. What advice do you think I should give to his parents to develop their child in a way that avoids him growing up to find that AI can do everything better than he can?

Humans seems to always find a way to make it work, so I’d tell them to enjoy their younger years and be curious. Lots of beauty in this world and even with a shit ton of ugly stuff, we somehow make it work and keep advancing forward.

There are people who fall behind though and they vote for politicians who will make the country great again when he promises to bring back jobs.

Where is the link to try it, ChatGPT doesn't know anything about it:

"Sora" is not a video generation technology offered by OpenAI. As of my last update in April 2023, OpenAI provides access to various AI technologies, including GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) for text generation and DALL·E for image generation. For video generation or enhancement, there might be other technologies or platforms available, but "Sora" as a specific product related to OpenAI or video generation does not exist in the information I have.

If you're interested in AI technologies for video generation or any other AI-related inquiries, I'd be happy to provide information or help with what's currently available!

Why would chatGPT know about anything new?

Countdown to when studios licensing this for "unlimited" episodes of your favorite series. There was Seinfeld "Nothing, Forever" AI parody, but once the models improve enough and are cheap enough to deploy, studios will license their content for real and just have endless seasons. Or even custom episodes. Imagine if every episode of a TV show was unique to the viewer.

This is the bit I don't think will happen, at least in big quantities. Half the fun of watching a popular series is being able to discuss it with epople afterwards!

What’s the connection between this and high end game engines (like unreal 5). I would expect 3d game engines to be used at least for training data and fine tuning. But perhaps also directly in the generation of the resulting videos? For example this looks very much like something from a modern 3d engine: https://twitter.com/OpenAI/status/1758192957386342435

They almost certainly trained on video game output and this is clearly bleeding into the style of some of these demos.

The SUV video for example looks very much like something you'd see in a modern video game which probably makes sense because most videos with kind of perspective are going to be from video games.

I don't know how they would use game engines directly for training and fine tuning though. It would be far too labour intensive to render high quality scenes using a video game engine for every prompt.

This is the harbinger that announces that, as a technologist, the time has come for me to witness more and more things that I cannot understand how they work any more. The cycle has closed and I have now become my father.

This comment describes with precision what I was feeling and was unable to name or frame. Marvelous times for sure.

Why would it?

This book is great: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/730887/understandin...

It's comparatively easy to understand and it does cover everything from basic networks to LLMs and Diffusion models.
