🎉 HUGE news! You can now listen to our newsletters as a podcast on Apple, Spotify, or YouTube.

The robotics startup 1X, backed by OpenAI, just outpaced Elon Musk's Tesla, winning the race to deploy the first humanoid robot in a professional environment.

Their EVE robot has been integrated as a security guard in an android manufacturing site, propelling surveillance into an entirely new dimension. 

The robots have advanced monitoring systems such as cameras, alarm sensors, and motion detectors. But here’s the craziest part: if an android misbehaves, it can enter its body through virtual reality and take control.

The agility of the EVE Robot is astonishing. It can open doors and windows, seize objects, and perform tasks similar to humans.

Prepare for a world where humans and robots work together, hand-in-hand. It’s coming.

The Yellowbrick Road built an AI tool that reads and summarizes 100s of stock articles every day and sends the ten best in a free, daily email.

They get articles from free and paid resources, including investor letters, research reports, blogs, newsletters, forums, Seeking Alpha, Motley Fool, etc., to ensure they find the best stock ideas every day.

The oh-so-popular AI image generator, Adobe Firefly is now available for everyone to try- all you need is an Adobe Id.

Firefly is one of The Rundown’s top AI tool picks. Their text-to-image might be slightly lesser quality than Midjourney, but they make up for it with their incredible UI and ease of use.

Not only that, but Firefly has a range of innovative image editing features in the pipeline, including generative refilling, 3D-to-image conversions, and image extensions. RIP designers? No, not quite! But by using these tools, many beginner designers will be able to unlock design at an advanced level.

OpenAI just dropped a fascinating new article. It takes a deep dive into the ‘Governance of Superintelligence’ - future AI systems on track to outshine even AGI.

Here's a rundown of the key insights:

  • Collaboration is key: Coordinating among top development efforts is crucial.

  • International oversight: The idea of an international authority, like the IAEA, is floating around.

  • Beyond building: Building Superintelligence isn't the endgame. We also need the technical capacity to ensure safety.

  • Public involvement: Governance of high-power AI systems should have substantial public oversight.

  • Irreversible progress: Despite risks, stopping the creation of Superintelligence isn't a feasible or desirable option.

In sum, we're looking at a future that's as challenging as it is promising, and the stakes have never been higher. 

One thing is sure: the world will look completely different in the next few years.
