Green Light: AI-Powered Traffic Light Optimization for Eco-Friendly Cities?
Green Light, a pioneering initiative backed by Google Research, leverages AI and global road network insights to optimise traffic light configurations at city intersections. By reducing stop-and-go traffic, Green Light aims to cut greenhouse gas emissions by up to 10%, significantly contributing to climate change mitigation and urban mobility enhancement. This cost-effective solution is already operational in 12 cities across four continents, impacting over 30 million car rides monthly, and showcases AI's potential to transform cities for a sustainable future.?

Extreme Parkour with Legged Robots – Carnegie Mellon University?
领英推荐
“Even after 4 years of locomotion research, we keep getting surprised by how far we can push the limits of legged robots! Extreme Parkour: extremely long & high jumps, ramp, handstand, etc. all with a single neural net!”?
“Neural networks are trained on data, not programmed to follow rules. With each step of training, millions or billions of parameters are updated to make the model better at tasks, and by the end, the model is capable of a dizzying array of behaviors. We understand the math of the trained network exactly – each neuron in a neural network performs simple arithmetic – but we don't understand why those mathematical operations result in the behaviors we see. This makes it hard to diagnose failure modes, hard to know how to fix them, and hard to certify that a model is truly safe.”?
Training AI to Play Pokemon with Reinforcement Learning – Peter Whidden?
“Right now we're watching 20,000 games played by an AI as it explores the world of Pokémon Red in the beginning it starts with no knowledge whatsoever and is only capable of pressing random buttons but throughout 5 years of simulated game time it gains many capabilities by learning from its experiences eventually the AI is able to catch Pokémon evolve them and defeat a gym leader at one point it even manages to exploit the game's random number generator.”?
“You specify what kind of app you want to build. Then, GPT Pilot asks clarifying questions, creates the product and technical requirements, sets up the environment, and starts coding the app step by step, like in real life, while you oversee the development process. It asks you to review each task it finishes or to help when it gets stuck. This way, GPT Pilot acts as a coder while you are a lead dev who reviews code and helps when needed.”?
“Think of how many times a day you use some type of search functionality across your devices and applications to discover information, find a contact, or a new job opportunity. The truth is we all depend on the ability to search for things online, and finding the right match to the information, organization, or to a job that maps to your skills and interests makes all the difference in our experiences and the knowledge we can gain.”?
Trends?
“A world of AI-assisted writing and reviewing might transform the nature of the scientific paper.”?
?
“OpenAI plans to introduce major updates for developers next month to make it cheaper and faster to build software applications based on its artificial intelligence models, as the ChatGPT maker tries to court more companies to use its technology, sources briefed on the plans told Reuters.”?
