🕹️AI can operate your phone and computers now 🤖

Good morning,

As you have seen in the title, AI agents are becoming more and more capable. These so called agents are getting scary good at doing human tasks and we are not just talking about chat based tasks like writing.

Oh and we also have a very cool template for you 😉

The Rise of AI Agents 🤖

In the bustling world of tech, a new brainchild has emerged, christened Devin by its creators at Cognition. Picture this: an AI that doesn't just mimic the average software engineer but strives to outdo them, coding independently with a flair that's causing quite the stir in Silicon Valley's coffee-laden corridors. Devin, heralded as the pioneering fully autonomous AI software engineer, is at the heart of a simmering debate—will it usher in a new era where coders are left to ponder their existence, or is it merely a digital sidekick, freeing up human minds for the creative conundrums that machines can't fathom? As it turns out, Devin is more of a code-conjuring companion than a job-snatching juggernaut, poised to revolutionize how we approach the mundane, leaving the brain-teasing challenges to its human counterparts.

Meanwhile, stepping out from the shadows is the O1 Lite, the brainchild of Open Interpreter that's about to turn your average Joe's home into a scene straight out of a sci-fi flick. With a simple "Hey, O1," this nifty gadget transforms verbal whims into action, controlling everything from your emails to your home's thermostat, all while teaching itself a few new tricks along the way. What's truly groundbreaking is its open-source spirit, a nod to the Linux ethos, promising a future where innovations flourish in the wild, unfettered by proprietary chains. The vision? A world teeming with AI-powered helpers, from pocket-sized physicians to domestic robots, all interconnected in an open ecosystem that's as vibrant and diverse as the developers who nurture it. With plans to unleash an open-source language model and a suite of tools that promise to democratize AI, the O1 Lite is not just a device but a declaration of the dawn of an accessible, collaborative future in technology.

Have a look at the O1 Lite in action with this video.

These are the first real use case agents, now imagine these agents in a year or few months. There is no more denying the rise of these agents, be prepared and stay open minded.

The weekly rundown 📬

The Third biggest company in the world and AI 🚀

At GTC 2024, Nvidia's grand maestro, Jensen Huang, donned his trademark leather jacket to take us on a whirlwind tour through the fantastical realms of accelerated computing. The spotlight shined bright on Blackwell, Nvidia's latest marvel—a processor so advanced, it's pushing the boundaries of what we thought possible with chip design. This isn't just any chip; it's a titan of technology, boasting speeds that leave its predecessor, Hopper, eating digital dust.

But Nvidia didn't stop at just flexing its silicon muscles. The event was a treasure trove of innovations aimed at revolutionizing how we interact with AI. From AI-optimized GPUs that promise to turbocharge our computing experiences to cutting-edge tools designed for the automotive and robotics industries, Nvidia is all in on the AI revolution. The introduction of the Nvidia NIM software platform is like handing a magic wand to developers, making the deployment of AI models as simple as a flick and a swish.

In essence, Nvidia's keynote was a technophile's dream—a deep dive into a future where computing speed and efficiency open up new horizons for how we live, work, and play. It was a clear message that Nvidia is not just part of the AI revolution; it's leading the charge, with innovation as its banner and accelerated computing as its steed.

Google’s AI got fined big for violating copyrights ⚖️

Google's adventure in the digital realm took a $270 million tumble when France's competition watchdog waved the red card, fining the tech giant for a sneaky move in the AI game. The bone of contention? Bard, Google's clever AI, got a bit too smart, secretly learning tricks from France's news publishers without so much as a "by your leave." This wasn't just any oversight; it was a breach of the trust and deals Google had previously set up with these content creators.

France's Autorité de la Concurrence wasn't having any of it, calling Google out for playing fast and loose with the rules—no transparency, no fair play in payments, and certainly no excuses. This fine isn't just about the money; it's a stern message about respecting copyright and ensuring creators get their due, especially when their work trains the next generation of AI.

Google, usually ready to duke it out in the courtroom, has decided to take this one on the chin, agreeing not to contest the Autorité's decision. This might be a tale of tech titans and legal wrangles, but at its heart, it's a reminder that in the rush to the future, we can't forget the rights and contributions of those who help us get there.

What are AI agents?

Imagine AI agents as smart robots or computer programs that can do tasks on their own, kind of like how a video game character can move around and do things without you telling it what to do every second. Here's how they work, explained in a really simple way:

Seeing and Listening
First, these agents can see or listen to what's happening around them. They might not use eyes or ears like we do, but they can take in information, like reading weather reports online or noticing which way a robot is moving.

Thinking and Deciding
After they get this information, they need to think about what it means and decide what to do next. Sometimes, their "thinking" is pretty straightforward, like "if it's raining, then grab an umbrella." Other times, they learn from experience, getting better each time, like learning the best way to win a game by trying different moves.

Doing
Once they've decided what to do, they go ahead and do it. This could be typing a message, moving a robot arm, or picking the next song to play based on what you seem to like.

Goals
All of this is done with a goal in mind, like helping you get your work done faster, keeping your house at the perfect temperature, or making sure a robot lands safely on Mars.

Independence
Some of these helpers are really independent and can do a lot on their own, while others might need a bit more help or instructions from us.

Types of Agents

• Simple Ones: They react to what's happening right now, like turning on the lights when it gets dark.

• Smart Ones: They remember things and use that information to make better decisions, like knowing you prefer quiet places and suggesting the perfect restaurant.

• Goal Getters: They have a specific goal, like finishing a puzzle, and they try different ways to achieve it.

• Happiness Maximizers: They try to make the best decision to keep you happy, like finding the quickest route home in traffic.

• Learners: They get better over time, learning from what works and what doesn't, like a game character that gets smarter every time you play.

Think of AI agents as your smart assistants, always learning and working to make things easier or more fun for you. They're like having a little helper with you all the time, figuring out the best way to do things based on what they see and learn.
