  • GPT-4o release

    ,

    Saw the OpenAI GPT-4o showcase video that was released today. In it, several new features are showcased: I just tested it myself and it now also easily generates Venn diagrams for any three concepts you throw at it. It also does any other kind of chart visualization of data that it has. It’s also much…

  • AI-assisted software teams

    Great insights by Henrik Kniberg (whom I regard highly as he was the author of the “Scrum and XP from the Trenches” guide that helped spark my interest in the new approach at the time) looking ahead to the next 5-10 years where AI-assisted work will become the norm in software development, and what it…

  • Advent of Code 2023

    The yearly Advent of Code event has commenced again. It’s a great way to tiptoe into programming or refresh some rusty skills by solving daily puzzles that get increasingly difficult. Typically, the first daily challenge is a breeze, but this time it is actually quite a challenging one straight off the bat. I wonder if…

  • VR night life

    Look closely behind the DJ! 👀 Spotted these VR headsets in a club in Utrecht, the Netherlands. Makes for some pretty dystopian scenes, especially considering the music 😁 Of course I tried them as well. The VR headsets ran a static “flyby” experience of some polygon-based landscapes and trees. It was fun for a bit,…

  • Openai GPT creator available

    After Monday’s announcement the OpenAI GPT creator has now become available to the public. As my kids love to color, I experimented with creating an agent that generates coloring pages on demand for any given subject. This saves me a lot of time previously having to use Google image search to find suitable images and…

  • OpenAI introduces “GPTs”

    Yesterday’s announcement of “GPTs” by OpenAI creates exciting new possibilities for easily creating agents that work based on specialized knowledge (which could be real domain knowledge or some specific made up fictional stuff like sci-fi worlds) as well as having access to custom functions that can interface with other services. The backdrop shown during the…

  • AI features in Unity

    This is huge: Unity just one-upped Epic Games‘ Unreal Engine by introducing an option to embed a full AI model into any experience that can be used for generating dialogue and other texts, which does not depend on external sources like ChatGPT. They also made available a set of plugins that allows creators of virtual…

  • Avatars in Microsoft Teams

    Cool stuff! Just found out Microsoft has *finally* enabled their new avatars feature on their Teams app. It is VERY elaborate in how it allows you to customize the looks. The lips and head move automatically based on what you say. Pretty cool, but it would definately have made more impact if it was released…

  • Apple VR

    One thing that I find remarkable about the Apple VR headset is that while everyone in the promotion pictures is present through webcam, the person wearing the headset clearly is not. 👀 So what would those people meeting her see instead? For me, this signifies that *if* the VR headset does take off as means…

  • AgentGPT

    While toying around with Agentgpt (which basically concatenates lots of normal GPT conversations to reach a defined “goal”) I realized that the moment this tool can post to Twitter will be the moment the general public will be exposed to a relentless amount of AI-controlled influencing with drastic effects. Attached an example where it attains…
