QFM009: Machine Intelligence Reading List - March 2024

We kick off this month with NVIDIA's ambitious Project GR00T which aims to create a general-purpose foundation model for humanoid robots, then move to DeepMind's SIMA, which explores the use of generative AI in handling 3D virtual environments.

We also explore the use of AI with infrastructure and tools with Meta's development of large AI clusters and then take a quick look at Noi a neat macOS desktop wrapper for interactions with LLMs.

On the theoretical and safety fronts, we have articles covering the intriguingly unexplained abilities of LLMs, the security concerns surrounding AI metacognition, and innovative defence strategies against jailbreaking attacks, demonstrating the field's ongoing attention to understanding, securing, and ethically advancing AI tech.

We explore the implications of AI on creativity and human authenticity as well as its potential disruptions to the ad industry and traditional software development roles.

Finally we look at the democratisation of AI alongside philosophical inquiries into human uniqueness in the age of AI.

As always, the Quantum Fax Machine Propellor Hat Key will guide your browsing. Enjoy!
