OpenAI introduced an "edit this area" feature for image generation, praised by Sam Altman. Yann LeCun highlighted a NYU paper improving pixel generation with feature prediction loss using pre-trained visual encoders like DINOv2. Long-context LLMs such as llama-3.1-8b and llama-3.2 variants now support up to 131k tokens, offering alternatives to RAG systems. Bindu Reddy announced AI agents capable of building and deploying code from English instructions, signaling AI's replacement of SQL and potential impact on Python. SpaceX's successful Starship rocket catch was celebrated by Andrej Karpathy and others, with Soumith Chintala praising SpaceX's efficient, low-bureaucracy research approach. Privacy concerns arose from Harvard students' AI glasses, I-XRAY, which can reveal personal information. Meta AI FAIR's Movie Gen model advances media foundation models with high-quality text-to-image and video generation, including synced audio. Humanoid robots like Ameca and Azi now engage in expressive conversations using ChatGPT. xAI rapidly deployed 100K Nvidia H100 GPUs in 19 days, with CEO Jensen Huang commending Elon Musk. Leading AI research labs compared include Meta-FAIR, Google DeepMind, and Microsoft Research. Skepticism about LLM intelligence was voiced by Sam Pino, emphasizing limitations in novel problem-solving despite strong memorization.
