Reddit’s home for Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Welcome to /r/artificial The rules here are outdated, please check New Reddit for updated rules - here is the link https://www.reddit.com/r/artificial/about/rules /r/artificial is the largest subreddit dedicated to all issues related to Artificial Intelligence or AI. What does AI mean? Find out here!
Guidelines: Check New Reddit for updated rules - here is the link -https://www.reddit.com/r/artificial/about/rules, and do not complain to us in Modmail if you get banned. Submissions should generally be about Artificial Intelligence and its applications. If you think your submission could be of interest to the community, feel free to post it.
Please note that just because something else is a technology buzzword (e.g. blockchain, quantum computing, virtual reality, augmented reality, etc.), that doesn't automatically make it AI. We've had such a problem with blockchain posts that they will now need to be manually approved by a mod before they become visible. If your post is primarily about another technology (like blockchain), please make the relation to AI abundantly and immediately clear (e.g. through writing a comment).
All submissions are moderated through "collaborative filtering" approach. To help better align content with the expectations of the audience and improve the quality of the subreddit, submissions that receive overall negative feedback may be removed.
Submission titles should clearly indicate what the submission is about. In the case of link posts, they should almost always contain the title of the thing you're linking to. Don't make up your own clickbait title, and if the original title is clickbait, please add some nuance of your own. For example, if the link you want to post is to an article called "You won't believe what AI did this time!", then 1) consider if it's really a quality article, and 2) create a title like this: "A neural network gets superhuman performance on <insert task".
When posting about a story, please look on the front page if it is already being discussed. If so, consider replying there instead of making a new submission to the subreddit. If not, please make some effort to post the best link to the story you can find (often this is the story from the original source, rather than some outlet repeating what someone else already reported).
Consider doing a little research before posting a link, opinion or question. For link posts, consider writing a submission statement: a comment that describes what the link is about, why you posted it, what you'd like to discuss, and/or what you think about it.
Read Rule 2 on New Reddit for our self-promotion rule.
Do not personally attack other people (here or elsewhere; including e.g. researchers you disagree with). If you see someone do this (e.g. to you), use the report button and do not retaliate. If you disagree with anything, stick to the arguments.

the ai revolution is here to stay, as it gets stronger and faster each day. not so much because it is so beneficial to the world in ways we're just beginning to imagine. it will succeed beyond what we today understand because of several reasons.
the first is that there is so much money to be made by investing in it. a year ago ai was estimated to generate about $15 trillion for the world economy by 2030. this year a revised estimate has the expected generated wealth at $9 trillion each year.
through campaign contributions, lobbying and ownership of the media, the rich control american politics. they will neither allow the slowdown or stopping of an enterprise that they expect will make them a lot richer sooner than any other investment they could make.
the second is that if we in the u.s. don't dominate the industry, brics countries like china will. i like the chinese, so i don't really have a problem with that. but american millionaires and billionaires may not be so happy with others with more powerful ais earning greater profits than them because of these more advanced ais. and because our economic world is no longer unipolar - ask any ai about brics - american millionaires and billionaires are powerless to stop other countries, including and especially india, from becoming our world's future ai leaders unless they invest heavily in the enterprise.
the third is because smarter people and smarter ais translates to stronger militaries. already russia, china, iran and north korea are ahead of the u.s. in hypersonic missile systems technology that render conventional military advantages like air craft carriers and fighter jets much less effective. we can see this happening today in ukraine.
the fourth is that whoever first said that ais won't take people's jobs but people who use them will was totally on target. luddites who want nothing to do with ai will, very unfortunately for them, pay a huge financial price for their ignorance and dismissal of the technology.
the fifth is that without ai our world hasn't a prayer against runaway global warming that, unless reversed, will render most of our planet uninhabitable by 2100.
the sixth and last reason that i can think of - please add others i've left out in the comments - is that the technology will make life so much better for everyone across every societal domain from medicine to education to governance. our world is much better in many ways today than it was hundreds of years ago because very smart people came up with very smart inventions like electricity and artificial fertilizer. now imagine the discoveries that lie ahead as millions of scientist agentic ais that are much more intelligent and much better informed than our human inventors are unleashed on our world.
yeah, it promises to be amazingly good. in fact those of us who understand this have a moral obligation to explain it to those who don't so that they aren't so far left behind.
who would have thought that a technology to a great extent developed by video gamers would be so completely game-changing!

I've been trying to research but can't find any definitive answers.
I tried MS Copilot for the first time today and its voice option is really impressive. I've read that there are AI text readers but I was hoping something exists like MS Copilot where it's the LLM AI with a voice.
Like with Claude I get frustrated by the limitation. I have a paid account with Claude and still hit limits in the chats. It's really frustrating.
I'm a hardware engineer so I don't have a good grasp on how all this works, but I know that some models for generative AI can be downloaded and run locally (e.g. stable diffusion). Is this the case with LLM? Is there a way to run something like MS Copilot locally so I don't keep hitting limits?
There were also a lot of frustrating limitations with MS Copilot that I kept hitting, where I would get a response like "I can't talk about that" even though it seemed I was asking fairly straightforward technical questions.
I can really see getting a lot of use out of an Alexa- or Siri-like platform where it just listens to what I say and speaks back to me. Does that exist yet and/or is that something I can setup locally?
This is a work i started. AI World basically is a Youtube inspired application. It has a site version and an application version. Inside AI World, there will be videos and shorts. The big difference is that AI World will be the only place where AI content will be uploaded. With the future of AI being uncertain, norms will of course be done, and so why AI World's concept exist. by the way, if you are interested,here is a link toward the document that describe AI World and its rules : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16z5QjnSnLoCW1_M7MU6F6lUKyyr-M6aS?usp=drive_link
I've recently discovered NotebookLM and I think it's pretty great. I wonder if there's any other tool alike which is secure and free.

I have strong doubts these people have coding knowledge so if anyone knows the software they are using that would be great!
Here is ChatGPT's second attempt, for example:
Step 1: Train A splits
Train A moves 40 cars and its locomotive into the siding, leaving the other 40 cars on the main track.
Train A's locomotive remains attached to the 40 cars in the siding.
Step 2: Train B moves
Train B (intact with all 80 cars) proceeds along the main track and passes the 40 cars of Train A still on the main track.
Train B stops beyond the siding, leaving space for Train A to maneuver.
Step 3: Train A’s siding cars return to the main track
Now both trains are on their way again, having successfully passed each other. This method uses the siding's limited capacity effectively. Does this align better with the diagram's setup?

Say I have Audio Clip A and Audio Clip B.
They're both entirely unrelated, but I want to make A transition into B for whatever reason.
Is there any website that I could plug A and B into, and get an generated transition between them?
iq estimates for ais have not yet been formally standardized, but based on their scores on various benchmarks and tests, researchers have approximated their "intelligence," or iq-equivalent.
on november 29, 2024 i asked some of the top ais to estimate the iqs of the top five ais. here are the results, (keep in mind that the average iq of the profession with the highest score, medical doctor, is 120, genius-level iq is 130 wais/140 s-b, and the iq of the average nobel laureate is 150):
gpt-4o
co-pilot
claude:
llama3:
gemini advanced: gpt-4: 145-160+ gpt-3.5: 110-130 bard: 100-120 claude: 110-130 llama: 90-110
you may have noticed that the results vary, and some models tend to rank themselves highest. obviously, more objective measures are needed. but the above scores suggest that ai agents are already more than intelligent enough to assist, or in some cases replace, top human personnel in virtually every job, field and profession where iq makes a difference. that's why in 2025 enterprise ai agent use is expected to go through the roof.
so hold on to your hats because during these next few years our world is poised to advance across every sector in ways we can hardly imagine!

The new Alibaba QwQ 32B is exceptional for its size and is pretty much SOTA in terms of benchmarks, we had deepseek r1 lite a few days ago which should be 15B parameters if it's like the last DeepSeek Lite. It got me thinking what would happen if we had this architecture with the next generation of scaled up base models (GPT-5), after all the efficiency gains we've had since GPT-4's release(Yi-lightning was around GPT-4 level and the training only costed 3 million USD), it makes me wonder what would happen in the next few months along with the new inference scaling laws and test time training. What are your thoughts?
