I would do that again, but
oh yeah the, uh, recording.
Oh, now it doesn't even lift up.
Hi I'm Matt, the in-house
 GPTologist here at redpepper
and welcome to another edition of Touch on Tech,
where we cover the latest in
emerging technologies.
Join us, will you?
Emerge and stick with us
in new technologies.
So OpenAI has released
their GPT-3 model, which is an upgraded
version of their GPT-2 model. So the 
GPT-3 model is trained on 175 billion
parameters which is just
tons of internet data, and it's able to
recreate text and even
 code that seems like it
was generated from a human. So this
model's got a lot of people turning
their heads because 
they're wondering 'what
can this thing do that we haven't even
thought about yet?!'
We thought that if you gave this 
model more data
it would get less accurate, but it's the
opposite! It's gotten
scarily accurate. It's able to generate
all types of things
that we thought only humans could do.
They can generate funny jokes, like
what's the worst thing
about a fish? It's wet.
That's a joke from an AI,
and I like that joke. The dead sea is so
dead, it's starting to rise!
Yeah.
Over the next few weeks we're going to explore 
some of the other experiments
that are happening with this GPT-3 
and see what it can do,
or can't. We're going to even try and
write a Touch on Tech
from this thing, see what it generates,
and I'll just say what it tells me to say.
So is your hair getting out of control
after all this quarantine action, and 
you just need a haircut but maybe you
still can't get out or don't want to get
out? StuffMadeHere has created
a robot to do just that! You just
sit in this machine
and let it use its scissors to cut right
around your head,
nowhere near your face,
not scary at all, and
give you the perfect haircut just like
that! Before you know it, there's going to
be like a little Roomba version of this
that sticks to your face,
and if you happen to have a beard it'll
just trim it all up
and then run off somewhere.
Did you ever have 
a pair of those Air Maxes?
They're pretty cool. Nike likes them a
lot, and so do a lot of people.
Well, with all the events being cancelled
lately, it's hard to kind of
get out there and promote their things on
the street like they normally would. So
Nike created a way to personalize
 your own shoes from the
comfort of your own house.
It uses augmented reality to make it to
where when you color this coloring book,
it's actually coloring a 3D model of the
shoes you want. So just pull out your
 Crayola, scribble a
little color on top of those
 Air Maxes, and now you
have a perfectly visualized version 
of what those shoes could look like.
Boom add to cart! Boom on 
my feet! Boom out the door!
So, if you remember the Amazon Go Stores 
which are those ones that have a bunch
of cameras, and you just
walk in, scan your phone, go around
collect things and then
 just walk right out the door
like a klepto, it seems like it's
going to be the future of retail,
because they're very social 
distancing friendly.
For the time being, Amazon's
rolled out their own cart
that could actually turn your grocery
cart into a tiny little Amazon Go.
So you can just put these in any grocery
store and it'll work. So all you do is
just grab your cart,
let it scan a QR code on your app, and
it'll connect your phone
to your cart, and so from then on as you
scan stuff and throw it in your cart,
it's actually bringing it up in the
background, and when you walk out the
door, BOOM you're charged!
So are you a fan of my little ponies like I am?
Well, what if you knew you could
create as many my little ponies 
as you wanted
and never run out of them? It would
be nice if an AI could just generate an
infinite amount of ponies.
So using
NVIDIA style
gam, they're able to generate 
visuals of ponies that
are not even real. They're just based on
a bunch of other ponies that existed.
You could have computers dream up all
types of new visuals!
You can dream up humans, you can dream 
up different Airbnbs, you can
generate all types of new designs for
your clothes,
or you can generate a new car, or you can
generate
a new plant, or you can generate a new
universe, or you can generate
a new Milky Way galaxy that you want to
generate.
mmmm. uhhh.
That was exhausting.
Well that's it for
another edition of Touch on Tech
(speaks gibberish) Am I in AI?
Thanks for coming by and spending some
time with us, and we hope to see 
you next time
on another edition of Touch on Tech.
