This Tool Lets You Program an Entire App With One Voice Command

#artificialintelligence

It uses OpenAI's Codex, an AI system for translating natural language to programming language that launched this week. It's a "descendent" of GPT-3, OpenAI's language model that can generate eerily realistic text conversations--recent examples being someone using it to grieve their deceased girlfriend and writings from a woman processing her sister's death. Unlike GPT-3, which is trained on hundreds of billions of words, Codex also draws from a dataset of publicly-available code, like public Github repositories. In June, OpenAI and Github launched Copilot, a tool that auto-suggests lines of code as the programmer types.


Deepfakes Are Now Making Business Pitches

WIRED

New workplace technologies often start life as both status symbols and productivity aids. The first car phones and PowerPoint presentations closed deals and also signalled their users' clout. Some partners at EY, the accounting giant formerly known as Ernst & Young, are now testing a new workplace gimmick for the era of artificial intelligence. They spice up client presentations or routine emails with synthetic talking head-style video clips starring virtual body doubles of themselves made with AI software--a corporate spin on a technology commonly known as deepfakes. The firm's exploration of the technology, provided by UK startup Synthesia, comes as the pandemic has quashed more traditional ways to cement business relationships.


OpenAI Releases An Improved Version Of Its Codex AI Model

#artificialintelligence

Today OpenAI is releasing a new and improved version of its Codex AI model to the public. Codex is a descendant of OpenAI's GPT-3, which was released last summer. While Codex shares the same data as its predecessor, it has an added advantage in that it can read and then complete text prompts submitted by a human user. The Codex is like the GPT-3 language engine, but it was only trained on coding. In the latest, OpenAI has made some big changes to Codex by now accepting commands in plain English as well. This allows someone who is building a game or web app without naming any variables whatsoever, and they get live working code back quickly with no hassle.


Artificial Intelligence: Week #32

#artificialintelligence

Plainsight was featured in the official blogs for both NVIDIA and Google Cloud! We also announced we're joining the NVIDIA Metropolis program. OpenAI released a new tool called Codex that can translate English into code! Codux is built with OpenAI's GPT-3 model, just like github's copilot that came out earlier this year with some similar capabilities.


OpenAI's Codex looks impressive -- and slightly scary

#artificialintelligence

OpenAI has released a new version of Codex, an AI system that translates written language into code. The company unveiled the upgraded software on Tuesday. It looks like a seriously powerful programming tool -- and a slightly scary one. In a live demo, OpenAI used the system to convert written English commands into simple games and websites. Attend the tech festival of the year and get your super early bird ticket now!

OpenAI has released a new version of Codex, an AI system that translates written language into code. The company unveiled the upgraded software on Tuesday. It looks like a seriously powerful programming tool -- and a slightly scary one. In a live demo, OpenAI used the system to convert written English commands into simple games and websites. Here's how your business can benefit from free citizen data Sam Altman, OpenAI's CEO, said the system is merely a rudimentary version of what's possible.


Watch out, GPT-3, here comes AI21's 'Jurassic' language model

#artificialintelligence

Such is just one of the attributes of Jurassic, a computer program introduced Wednesday by Tel Aviv-based artificial intelligence startup AI21 Labs. GPT-3, of course, is the language program from the San Francisco-based startup OpenAI that rocked the world in 2020 by generating sentences and whole articles that seemed quite human-like. GPT-3 also shocked the world by being kept inside a fairly restrictive beta testing arrangement by OpenAI. AI21 is promising to go OpenAI not one better, but two better, with what it claims are superior benchmark results on a test known as ยซ few shot learning, ยป and a more open program for beta testers. On the latter score, AI21 is making development use of the program available as an ยซ open beta, ยป it said, where anyone can sign up to use the program and there is ยซ no wait list.


OpenAI Codex and GPT-3

#artificialintelligence

A few months ago Sam Altman wrote a blog post called Moore's Law for Everything. In it, he spoke about what the world could look like as AI becomes more advanced. First what is an API and GPT-3? We will start with an API. An application programming interface (API) is a connection that allows computers or computer programmes to communicate with one another.



OpenAI upgrades its natural language AI coder Codex and kicks off private beta

#artificialintelligence

OpenAI has already made some big changes to Codex, the AI-powered coding assistant the company announced last month. The system now accepts commands in plain English and outputs live, working code, letting someone build a game or web app without so much as naming a variable. A few lucky coders (and, one assumes, non-coders) will be able to kick the tires on this new Codex API in a free private beta. Codex is best thought of as OpenAI's versatile language engine, GPT-3, but trained only on code instead of ordinary written material. That lets it do things like complete lines of code or entire sections, but when it was announced it wasn't really something a non-coder would be able to easily interact with.
