Let me show you something. To be precise, I'm going to show you nothing. This was the world 540 million years ago. Pure, endless darkness. It wasn't dark due to a lack of light. It was dark because of a lack of sight. Although sunshine did filter 1,000 meters beneath the surface of the ocean, and light permeated from hydrothermal vents to seafloor, brimming with life, there was not a single eye to be found in these ancient waters. No retinas, no corneas, no lenses. So all this light, all this life, went uns ...

Ladies and gentlemen, prepare for a fun conversation with a very special guest and someone I'm proud to call a friend. Welcome, Elon Musk. Elon, welcome to Riyadh. It's been quite an incredible 90 days for you, my friend. Yeah, XAI Colossus came online 122 days. You're about to double in size again. Extraordinary success of the fifth mission of Starship and the booster capture, amazing. The launch of Cyber Cab, Starlink helping in disaster relief, progress with Optimus, the second Neuralink human patient, n ...

Okay, let's do some tests. Tell me when you see something that makes sound. I see a speaker which makes sound. What is that part of the speaker called? That is the tweeter. It produces high frequency sounds. Give me a creative alliteration about these. Creative crayons color cheerfully. They certainly craft colorful creations. What does that part of the code do? This code defines encryption and decryption functions. It seems to use AESCBC encryption to encode and decode data based on a key and an initializa ...

Dennis, so good to have you here. DLH It's fantastic to be here. Thanks, Chris. CA Now, you told Time magazine, I want to understand the big questions, the really big ones, that you normally go into philosophy or physics if you're interested in them. I thought building AI would be the fastest route to answer some of those questions. Why did you think that? CAWTHON-JOHNSON Well, I guess when I was a kid, my favorite subject was physics, and I was interested in all the big questions, fundamental nature of rea ...

knows about DeepMind and knows what it's doing now. Let's begin briefly with your story because one of the things that's interesting is you started up I think in about 2010 and you had the ideas from before then. And we'd had 40 years of AI winters and AI not happening, and certainly as someone covering science then, AI was not something I was thinking about. But it seems the zeitgeist has been favorable to you. Why did DeepMind happen then? Well, I've been working on AI actually for over 30 years now, so f ...

Get a mask great to see you how are you i mean we're here at the texas gigafactory the day before this thing opens it's been pretty crazy out there thank you so much for making time today i would love you to help us cast our minds i don't have ten twenty thirty years into the future. And help us try to picture what it would take to build a future that's worth getting excited about. You've often said it. The last time you spoke at TED, you said that was really just a big driver. You talk about lots of other ...

Some say that he is an alien, others say that he is an artificial intelligence robot. But when it comes down to it, Elon Musk is a scientist, one who is conquering the business world. Elon Musk has become a futuristic industrialist, a person who took his coding skills to start building machines. Most people don't realize that Elon Musk is a scientist. Even his own friends ask him who is the chief engineer for SpaceX, not realizing it is Elon himself. This video takes a look at how Elon Musk sees the world t ...

Welcome. Welcome to the Wee Robot Party. We have quite a show for you tonight. I think you're going to like it. As you can see, I just arrived in the Robotaxi, the cyber cab. And there's 20 more where that came from. So they've been traveling. There's no people in them, as you can see. The cars are just going by with no people. And we have 50 fully autonomous cars here tonight. So you'll see Model Ys and the Cybercab, all driverless. You'll be able to take a ride in the Cybercab. There's no steering wheel o ...
