While AI systems amaze and alarm the world in equal measure, they’re about to get even more powerful. Nvidia has announced a new class of supercomputer that will train the next generation of AI models, and put us all out of work far faster.

It's too late to close the barn door, as the AI horse has already bolted. Now, experts are calling for urgent guidelines to regulate the use of the tech in healthcare, coinciding with OpenAI's founder urging for AI laws in order to protect humanity.

OpenAI is making rapid advances in a new text-to-3D object system it's been working on. The Shap-E AI, available as an open-source download, can generate 3D assets straight from a text description, or build them from supplied images.

This is no puny chatbot. AutoGPT is a stack of AIs, managed by other AIs. It goes and gets jobs done for you, figuring things out step by step and adjusting on the fly. It's an early, but janky glimpse at how autonomous AI will change your life.

These days, ChatGPT is a hot topic of conversation. New research has found that, compared to human doctors, ChatGPT is more empathetic and provides higher-quality responses to patients, begging the question: are doctors replaceable?

Humanoid robots built around cutting-edge AI brains promise shocking, disruptive change to labor markets and the wider global economy – and near-unlimited investor returns to whoever gets them right at scale. Big money is now flowing into the sector.

Does OpenAI have a responsibility to let GPT-4 off the chain right now as a shock-and-awe demonstration of AI power, a Hiroshima moment that might spur the world into action? In a recent interview, CEO Sam Altman hinted that he's considering it.

OpenAI has allowed its stunning ChatGPT AI to reach out into the world with staggering new powers. It can now access the internet, run its own code to solve problems, accept and work on uploaded files, and write its own interfaces to third-party apps.

If you thought the last 20 years of progress were impressive, then strap in. GPT-4 is here, just months after ChatGPT. It's smarter, more accurate, and harder to fool. It now has an uncanny ability to interpret visuals, and maybe a thirst for power.

ChatGPT's underlying language model, GPT-3.5, is about to be superseded. The CTO of Microsoft Germany has told the audience at the company's "AI in Focus" event that GPT-4 is set for imminent release, unlocking new capabilities, including video.

This year may well be remembered as the moment the world woke up to the power, the potential and the world-inverting threat of artificial intelligence. OpenAI's humble, free-to-use chatbot has made it clear: life will never be the same after ChatGPT.

The greatest artistic tool ever built, or a harbinger of doom for entire creative industries? OpenAI's second-generation DALL-E 2 system is slowly opening up to the public, and its text-based image generation and editing abilities are awe-inspiring.
