ALIBABA CLOUD & NVIDIA

šŸš–Alibaba Cloud and Nvidia Supercharge Autonomous Cars

Alibaba Cloud and Nvidia are collaborating to develop an enhanced AI solution for autonomous cars.

Key Details:
  • Alibaba Cloudā€™s ā€œQwen2-VL,ā€ a Vision Language Model (VLM) that processes images and text to understand visual information, will integrate into Nvidiaā€™s Drive AGX Orin Developer Kit, which provides hardware and software for autonomous car applications.

  • This collaboration aims to allow in-car voice assistants to conduct more dynamic conversations and offer intelligent recommendations based on visual environmental data.

  • The companies are also adapting Alibaba Cloudā€™s AI models for Nvidiaā€™s DRIVE Thor Platform, a centralized brain for autonomous cars that features adaptive cruising or lane-keeping assist.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • Alibaba Cloudā€™s AI models, paired with Nvidiaā€™s AI hardware, have already dramatically reduced computational costs and minimized latency in the real-time processing of complex tasks for in-car voice assistants.

  • This collaboration demonstrates the potential of combining cloud-based AI models with powerful AI hardware to fuel autonomous car advancements.

OpenAI is rolling out ChatGPTā€™s Advanced Voice Mode to Enterprise, Plus, and Team plans throughout next week.

Key Details:
  • OpenAI planned to roll out ChatGPTā€™s Advanced Voice Mode within weeks of Mayā€™s Spring Update event.

  • However, the startup delayed it to continue refining the featureā€™s ability to detect and refuse certain content.

  • ChatGPTā€™s Advanced Voice Mode can reason across audio, vision, and text in real-time to offer more natural human-computer interactions.

  • It boasts more natural conversational tones and responds to various emotions and non-verbal cues.

  • It has five new voice options (i.e., Arbor, Maple, Sol, Spruce, and Vale) and can also say, ā€œSorry Iā€™m late!ā€ in over 50 languages.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • OpenAI improved the conversational speed, smoothness, and accents of ChatGPTā€™s Advanced Voice Mode.

  • It can help you prepare for interviews, be a late-night study buddy, or be a best friend who gives you opinions on decisions.

AI RESEARCH

šŸŒ‚IBM and NASA Monitor Climate With AI

IBM researchers and NASA scientists developed ā€œPrithvi WxC,ā€ a general-purpose AI model that predicts weather patterns and monitors climate variations.

Unlike standard AI models, general-purpose AI models can be customized for various use cases without requiring extensive retraining.

ā€œPrithvi WxCā€ contains 2.3 billion parameters and was trained using 160 variables from the Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications, Version 2 (MERRA-2).

In general, more parameters make AI models more powerful, efficient, and faster. MERRA-2 is a high-resolution dataset that reconstructs past atmospheric conditions using an advanced climate framework.

ā€œPrithvi WxCā€ relies on an Encoder-Decoder Architecture that processes input data to generate output data.

  1. Encoder (i.e., ā€œinput dataā€): Sequence of observations (e.g., temperature, pressure, or humidity).

  2. Decoder (i.e., ā€œoutput dataā€): Analyze the sequence of observations to generate a response.

ā€œPrithvi WxCā€ can offer short-term weather forecasting and long-term climate projections to help with agricultural sectors, transportation services, or disaster response plans.
