I have to admit I didn't read the article though, maybe it's less literal.

Wasn't he dissing Anthropic not too long ago?

Wasn't he dissing Anthropic not too long ago?

To be fair various personalities do that for various reasons, but a multimodal Claude would be fairly certain given that's the direction the big companies are moving in to stay current.

Speaking of his mentioning Open Source:

This guy is legit in that he's an actual expert at UCLA and working with ByteDance, but a model more powerful than Gemini which is Open Sourced this soon? Unless this is a case of miscommunication and in reference to GPT-4.5 or something, I find it hard to believe that Gemini Ultra would be outpaced this quickly even if the tech demos are being called into question. Would be world changing if true, but I'll only believe it should it happen this month.

A new model that allows robots to re-identify and follow human users

In recent years, roboticists and computer scientists have introduced various new computational tools that could improve interactions between robots and humans in real-world settings. The overreaching goal of these tools is to make robots more responsive and attuned to the users they are assisting, which could in turn facilitate their widespread adoption.

Researchers at Leonardo Labs and the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Italy recently introduced a new computational framework that allows robots to recognize specific users and follow them around within a given environment. This framework, introduced in a paper published as part of the 2023 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Robotics and Its Social Impacts (ARSO), allows robots re-identify users in their surroundings, while also performing specific actions in response to hand gestures performed by the users.

"We aimed to create a ground-breaking demonstration to attract stakeholders to our laboratories," Federico Rollo, one of the researchers who carried out the study, told Tech Xplore. "The Person-Following robot is a prevalent application found in many commercial mobile robots, especially in industrial environments or for assisting individuals. Typically, such algorithms use external Bluetooth or Wi-Fi emitters, which can interfere with other sensors and the user is required to carry."
