🥊Elon Musk Blocks OpenAI’s For-Profit Transition?

Tech billionaire Elon Musk filed a Preliminary Injunction against OpenAI to prevent the company from engaging in “anticompetitive behavior.”

Key Details:

• A Preliminary Injunction is a court order that prevents OpenAI from taking specific actions until a final judgment is made on Musk’s lawsuit against OpenAI.

• These specific actions include OpenAI’s plan to restructure into a For-Profit Benefit Corporation (“B Corp.”) that’s no longer controlled by a non-profit Board of Directors (BofD) after securing $6.6 billion at a $157 billion valuation.

• The Preliminary Injunction also claims that OpenAI discouraged investors from backing rivals like Musk’s xAI, and the company benefited from “wrongfully obtained competitively sensitive information” through connections with Microsoft.

Why It’s Important:

• OpenAI CEO Sam Altman called Musk’s fourth legal action against his company a “recycling of the same baseless complaints.”

• Investors from the latest funding round are pressuring OpenAI to convert into a “B Corp.” within the next two years, or else they’ll claw back their cash.

🧠Google DeepMind’s New “Socratic Learning” Approach

Google DeepMind introduced “Boundless Socratic Learning With Language Games,” a framework that enables AI agents to improve themselves by interacting with other AI agents.

Key Details:

• This framework is inspired by the Socratic Method, a teaching style that involves professors asking open-ended questions to help students evaluate their own beliefs.

• Here’s a concise breakdown of how it works:

  1. Training Data: The AI agents are trained on a dataset of text and code.

  2. Language Games: The AI agents pose questions, debate over the answers, and critique each other’s responses.

  3. Self-Improvement: The AI agents learn to identify errors and develop new insights through these interactions.

• This process continues repeatedly, with the AI agents building upon their knowledge to become more capable problem-solvers.

Why It’s Important:

• Google DeepMind outlined three levels of Self-Improvement: Basic Learning (i.e., “Inputs and Outputs”), Game Selection, and Code Self-Modification.

• Code Self-Modification would equip AI agents with the ability to modify their own code to improve their performance on specific tasks.

AI IN ROBOTICS

🦾Tesla’s “Optimus-Gen 2” Hand Upgrades

Tesla just showcased “Optimus-Gen 2” catching tennis balls with an upgraded hand that boasts 22 Degrees of Freedom (DoF). For comparison, a human hand has 27 DoF.

Tesla leverages Neural Networks (NNs) with End-to-End Learning to build software stacks that enable “Optimus-Gen 2” to balance, navigate, and interact with the physical world.

NNs are an AI architecture designed to mimic the human brain. In this case, they’re trained on a large dataset filled with balancing, navigating, and interacting data. End-to-End Learning allows NNs to perform the actions in the raw data without explicit instructions from programmers.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk explained, “Optimus-Gen 2 is designed to be an extremely capable humanoid robot in very high volumes. Ultimately, in millions of units.”
