How wind turbines work. Wind turbines use blades to collect the wind’s kinetic energy. Wind flows over the blades creating lift (similar to the effect on airplane wings), which causes the blades to turn. The blades are connected to a drive shaft that turns an electric generator, which produces (generates) electricity.
Google Gemini Outperforms Most Human Experts & GPT-4 I Artificial intelligence I Google’s DeepMind
Google has taken the wraps off from its new AI model, Gemini. This model is designed to behave in human-like ways, better that what other models can achieve. Gemini is a new artificial intelligence model that outperforms other models in tasks like understanding, summarising, reasoning, coding, and planning. It comes in three versions: Pro, Ultra, and Nano. The Pro version is already available, and the Ultra version will be released early next year. Gemini is a large language model (LLM) developed by Google’s DeepMind division. It’s designed to compete with other AI systems like OpenAI’s ChatGPT and possibly outperform them.
Key Features of Gemini
Multimodal Capabilities Gemini is designed from the ground up to be multimodal, integrating text, images, and other data types. This could allow for more natural conversational abilities. Google showcased the abilities of the AI by conversing with it with the help of a direct video interaction, showing it different objects in real time. Gemini is expected to have a significant impact on the AI industry. It’s Google’s most powerful AI model yet and outperforms OpenAI’s GPT-4. It powers applications and devices like the Bard chatbot and Pixel 8 Pro. Google claims it is one of the first models that has been built as multi-modal LLM from the ground up. That should make interaction more natural and “human-like”.
Matt Mullenweg: State of the Word 2023
State of the Word is the annual keynote address delivered by the WordPress project’s co-founder, Matt Mullenweg, celebrating the progress of the open source project and offering a glimpse into its future.

Arm’s Chips Will Be As Essential to AI as to Phones, CEO Says
Rene Haas, the CEO of Arm Holdings, says the firm is positioned to be as essential to the generative Artificial Intelligence revolution as it has been to smartphones, where its semiconductors are ubiquitous. “AI is going to find its way into every single electronics device that we use, whether it’s the smallest device in your home or the largest data center that sits out in the wild,” Haas told Bloomberg’s Tom Mackenzie. “Arm will be foundational to everything going on with AI.”
Google’s Gemini just made GPT-4 look like a baby’s toy?
Take a first look at Gemini – Google’s latest AI model and GPT-4 competitor. Learn how the multimodal Gemini can handle generative AI tasks, solve programming challenges with Alpha Code 2, and how it was trained using TPU superpods.

Generating Geothermal Energy Using Shale Technology || Peter Zeihan
The Google-backed company, Fervo Energy, has launched two geothermal projects that use preexisting shale technology and infrastructure to generate electricity. Could this be a partial solution to the looming electricity shortage?
Deepmind’s New AI GNoME Just Changed EVERYTHING! (Materials Breakthrough)
AI tool GNoME finds 2.2 million new crystals, including 380,000 stable materials that could power future technologies
Modern technologies from computer chips and batteries to solar panels rely on inorganic crystals. To enable new technologies, crystals must be stable otherwise they can decompose, and behind each new, stable crystal can be months of painstaking experimentation.

Next Level AI Characters & Locations, plus: Microsoft’s Gaia and More!
https://youtu.be/yfxZKoTOka0?si=XE6rFJ6BE5czJfdA
Today we’re taking a look at what looks to be the first glimpse of what Creative AI will look like very shortly. A lot has been made about how Image Generators will incorporate new camera techniques into their creations, allowing prompters to have post control over their angles and even explore entire worlds from a Prompt. Until now, this has mostly been theoretical (ahem)– but now, with Latent Consistency Models, we’re starting to see it happen, and….in Real Time. We’ll also be looking at a new project to generate characters within these worlds– and doing so without using previous 3d or video references! More than that, a new model that will create animated characters– and this one comes from a very surprising source. Is the future of E-Commerce going to have an AI Video component? From there, I’m also showcasing Microsoft’s Project Gaia, is this them flexing at Hey Gen? Will your avatar be attending your next Microsoft Teams meeting instead of you?
