OpenAI teases 12 days of mystery product launches
On Wednesday, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced the start of a "12 days of OpenAI" period, beginning December 5. This will reveal a mix of big and small updates.
Here’s what you need to know:
No GPT-4 successor this year: OpenAI confirmed there will be no new GPT model this year. Rumors about the "Orion" model releasing in December are false. Sam Altman called them "pure fiction."
O1 Model Preview: OpenAI shared a preview of the O1 model, which can handle up to 200,000 tokens and analyze images. While still a placeholder, the full version will likely excel in math and advanced functions, improving AI processing.
Sora Model Update: Updates for OpenAI's Sora model, launched in February, are expected, especially improvements to its video generation capabilities. This could push the limits of AI-driven video creation.
New Voice Features: OpenAI might introduce new voice features, including a holiday-themed Santa voice. These could come with festive animations, like snowflakes, to add a fun touch.
Why it matters:
As AI competition heats up, OpenAI’s O1 and Sora models could set new standards in token processing and video generation, raising the bar for AI development.

SIDE UPDATES
Spotify’s 2024 Wrapped features an AI-powered podcast in partnership with Google’s NotebookLM. The podcast has two AI hosts discussing your music tastes, top tracks, and more. While fun, expect a few robotic quirks like mispronunciations. You can share or download your personalized podcast to relive your year in music.
Google is testing a new conversational AI interface in its Android Search app, called ‘AI Mode.’ This feature offers a more interactive experience with voice input, photo uploads, and real-time query adjustments. If launched, it could change how we use Google Search by combining visual and conversational elements.
Google’s DeepMind has developed GenCast, a system that outperforms traditional weather forecasting methods. It combines advanced techniques and a diffusion model for high-resolution predictions, making it more efficient and accessible for research teams.
Sam Altman downplays concerns about the dangers of AI. He believes artificial general intelligence could be achieved soon but isn’t as impactful as some think. He also addressed tensions with Elon Musk, criticizing the use of political power to harm competitors.
Take it with a grain of salt.
Predictions for 12 days of @OpenAI:
* o1 release
* sora release
* new product that isn't ChatGPT
* next version of Advanced Voice mode demo
* computer use demo
* AI agent demo using o1
* updates to the memory feature
* auto-model selector so you don't have to pick which model… x.com/i/web/status/1…— Nathan Lands — Lore.com (@NathanLands)

Google DeepMind unveils Genie 2, an AI that Generates Playable 3D Worlds
Google DeepMind has unveiled Genie 2, a foundation AI model that transforms single images into playable 3D environments.
Here's what you need to know:
Playable 3D Worlds: Genie 2 creates 3D worlds that last up to a minute. Users can explore, jump, throw objects, and interact with non-playable characters (NPCs).
Advanced Spatial Memory: Objects stay in place even off-screen, creating a smooth and realistic experience.
User Control: Supports keyboard and mouse controls, with first- or third-person perspectives and 720p output.
AI-Driven Navigation: The SIMA AI agent can navigate these environments based on simple language commands like “go to the red door.”
Wide Range of Inputs: Works with various image types—from concept art to real-world photos—allowing for rapid prototyping and experimentation.
Why It’s Useful:
Game Developers: Prototype and test ideas quickly, like experimenting with gameplay in different settings.
Filmmakers: Preview scenes before spending on costly CGI or sets.
Architects: Provide clients with interactive, walkable 3D previews of designs.
AI Researchers: Create diverse environments for robot training, improving real-world adaptability.
Educators: Build interactive simulations for immersive learning experiences.
