If you thought OpenAI’s Gpt-4o model was fascinating, think again.

Tech giant Google, on Tuesday (May 14), unveiled a new prototype from its DeepMind lab, called Project Astra that can answer real-time queries across video, audio and text.

In a demonstration shown during the company’s annual developers conference, the Google I/O, Astra could be seen responding almost immediately to queries based on what it saw through the phone’s camera.

It was able to write an alliteration about crayons, identify programming code functions, suggest improvements to electrical circuit diagrams, give a name to a rock duo consisting of a golden retriever and a stuffed tiger, and identify King’s Cross neighbourhood in London just by looking through a window. It was also able to locate glasses for the user when asked if it had seen them.

When Google revealed Gemini in December last year, it received a lot of backlash for faking the capabilities of the AI model in the demo video, where Gemini seemed to instantly recognise objects it was shown. So this time, Google added a disclaimer saying the Astra demo was filmed in two parts, in single takes.

The competition between Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT seems to be getting close with both models looking to potentially change how we interact with our devices. Google will bring Project Astra — or whatever it will be called officially — to the Gemini app on Pixel smartphones later this year and Apple is said to be closing a deal with OpenAI to power the AI features on its upcoming devices, including the iPhone 16 series. It is possible that the updates Siri could be based on the GPT-4o model.

OpenAI has stated that in the future, improvements will allow for more natural, real-time voice conversation and the ability to converse with ChatGPT via real-time video. Currently, it understands and discusses the images it sees. For example, solving a math problem or understanding your expressions or giving you details about your food.

Google smart glasses are likely on table

Google is probably aiming at two birds with one stone with a probability of smart glasses to accompany Project Astra.

The video demonstration during the morning keynote included a pair of glasses that appeared to have a camera and some kind of visual interface.

During interviews with Google DeepMind Chief Executive Officer Demis Hassabis and Google co-founder Sergey Brin, the executives confirmed that the company is experimenting with the idea of making glasses for Project Astra.

“Obviously, it works amazingly on the phones,” said Hassabis, who oversees AI research at Google. “But the whole Valley’s debating this — there probably needs to be other form factors as well, when these systems are fully developed. It seems to me like Glass is an obvious one.”

Brin called Project Astra a “killer app” for an AI-powered glasses effort — adding that Google was 10 years too early to the game. “It’s funny because it’s, like, the perfect hardware,” he said, while stopping short of confirming that Google was actively working on glasses.

“Hands-free is the idea,” Brin said. “A lot of things you want commentary on: You’re cooking or doing some sport, or you want this thing to help you. It’s awkward to do it with your hands also holding your phone.”

Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

Among the various announcements at this year’s Google I/O, the tech giant introduced two new generative media technologies — Veo, its latest video generation model, and Imagen 3, its most advanced text-to-image model yet.

Veo, according to Google, can generate high-quality 1080p resolution videos in various cinematic styles, exceeding a minute in duration.

“With an advanced understanding of natural language and visual semantics, it generates video that closely represents a user’s creative vision — accurately capturing a prompt’s tone and rendering details in longer prompts,” the company said in a blog post.

The model is also said to understand cinematic terms like “timelapse” or “aerial shots of a landscape” and creates videos that are consistent and realistic. During the announcement, Google also showcased how it is working with filmmaker Donald Glover and his experience with the model.

Google has rolled out Veo to select creators in a private preview through VideoFX, with future integrations expected in YouTube Shorts and other products.

On the other hand, Imagen 3 is Google’s latest text-to-image generation model, capable of photorealistic rendering with minimal visual artefacts, the company said.

“Imagen 3 better understands natural language, the intent behind your prompt and incorporates small details from longer prompts. The model’s advanced understanding helps it master a range of styles,” it added.

Imagen 3 is said to excel in rendering text, something that has been a challenge for image generation models. Google believes this could open up avenues for personalised content creation like birthday messages, title slides in a presentation, etc.

Today we’re introducing Imagen 3, @GoogleDeepMind’s most capable image generation model yet. It understands prompts the way people write, creates more photorealistic images and is our best model for rendering text. #GoogleIO pic.twitter.com/6bjidsz6pJ

Spam calls to soon become ‘unfair trade practices’, will attract hefty fines

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

If you are plagued with spam calls, you can expect some good news as early as this month. Reports suggest that the government is planning to unveil long-awaited guidelines for unnecessary promotional calls by the end of May.

Unwanted promotional calls from unregistered phone numbers are expected to fall under “unfair trade practices” and are also likely to be heavily fined.

The forthcoming regulations, dubbed as the ‘Guidelines for Unsolicited and Unwarranted Business Communication 2024’, aim to provide respite to individuals receiving such marketing calls.

According to the draft guidelines, telecom companies will face proposed penalties for violating privacy and trampling consumer rights.

Companies that benefit from unsolicited calls made by commission agents from banks, insurance firms, and real estate entities will be held responsible. They could face penalties as stipulated by the Consumer Protection Act.

Telecom operators are also mandated to disclose the identity of each caller, including their name and sector, so consumers can decide whether to entertain or reject incoming calls.

The guidelines are poised to prohibit all unwarranted calls that deviate from the prescribed number series prescribed by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI). Additionally, telecom service providers will be held responsible for thwarting unethical trade practices, with punitive measures earmarked for violators.

According to a report from Mint, this decision follows a stakeholders’ meeting held last week, attended by officials from the Department of Telecommunications, TRAI, BSNL, Airtel, Vodafone, and Reliance Jio. Mint added that all stakeholders have agreed to adhere to norms issued by the Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA), which reports to the Department of Consumer Affairs (DoCA).

India blocks over 1,000 Skype IDs used for online blackmailing

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), under the Ministry of Home Affairs, in collaboration with Microsoft, has blocked over 1,000 Skype IDs associated with crimes, alongside efforts to restrict the use of SIM cards, mobile devices, and mule accounts used by the perpetrators.

The department has issued a stark warning as reports flood in regarding a surge in cybercrimes involving impersonation of law enforcement agencies.

Perpetrators, posing as officials from police authorities, Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), the Narcotics Department, Reserve Bank of India (RBI), Enforcement Directorate and other law enforcement agencies, are resorting to tactics such as intimidation, blackmail, and even orchestrating ‘digital arrests’ to extort money from unsuspecting victims, according to the Ministry of Home Affairs.

These fraudulent individuals employ sophisticated techniques to dupe victims into believing they are facing legal repercussions, often fabricating scenarios involving illegal goods or the involvement of loved ones in criminal activities.

“A demand for money is made to compromise the ‘case’. In certain instances, unsuspecting victims are made to undergo ‘Digital Arrest’ and remain visually available over Skype or other video conferencing platforms to the fraudsters, till their demands are met. The fraudsters are known to use studios modelled on Police Stations and Government offices and wear uniforms to appear genuine,” the Ministry added.

In addition to this, the I4C has launched an awareness campaign through its social media platform Cyberdost, disseminating vital information through infographics and videos on platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

OpenAI’s GPT-4o model has made sci-fi a reality — how netizens are reacting

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

OpenAI on Monday (May 13) announced its new and upgraded AI model, the GPT-4o, which is capable of realistic voice conversation and is able to interact across text, voice and vision.

GPT-4o, short for ‘omni,’ will power OpenAI’s popular ChatGPT chatbot, and will be available to users, including those who use the free version, in the coming weeks, the company announced during a short live-streamed update.

During a demonstration with Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati and other executives, the AI bot chatted in real time, adding emotion — specifically “more drama” — to its voice as requested. It also helped walk through the steps needed to solve a simple math equation without first spitting out the answer, and assisted with a more complex software coding problem on a computer screen.

It also took a stab at extrapolating a person’s emotional state by looking at a selfie video of their face (deciding he was happy since he was smiling) and translated English and Italian to show how it could help people who speak different languages have a conversation.

If you have watched Spike Jonze’s 2013 sci-fi film Her, starring Joaquin Phoenix and voice-starring Scarlett Johansson, you will immediately notice the resemblance between ChatGPT and Samantha. For those unaware, the plot of the movie revolves around an introverted writer falling in love with the artificially intelligent operating system on his computer (Samantha), taking the viewers through the journey of their relationship.

It can’t be a coincidence that Her also happens to be OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s favourite film, as he revealed during the Dreamforce 2023 event in San Francisco.

Netizens were also quick to point out the similarities between the new ChatGPT and Johansson’s Samantha.

“‘Her’ is becoming reality right now,” a user pointed out on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), sharing a video of GPT-4o’s demo.

GPT-4o is INSANE 🤯

Altman also posted a single word — “her” — on X after the demo.

— Sam Altman (@sama) May 13, 2024

If we are smart enough, we know what not to do. If not, watch Her on Amazon Prime Video.

Another user was left baffled by how quickly the new model is able to translate languages in real time. This makes the GalaxyAI on Samsung look almost ancient, and the technology was just launched in January.

Wow, RIP 🪦 translators! GPT-4o changing the game, again! #ai #chatgpt pic.twitter.com/yn0nApspiO

The GPT-4o is also capable of solving complex math problems in real time making it easier for students to do their homework.

This demo is insane. 😱

However, it seems that even with its advanced intelligence, the GPT-4o can still let you down sometimes. @kanakonouma tried to ask ChatGPT to be its English tutor but due to loaded servers, it just let her down.

It sounds like GTP4o won’t be able to help me improve my English for a while.🤣😂 But I was thrilled to have her on the phone with me. Hope OpenAI grows even faster down the road. #ChatGPT #ChatGPT4o pic.twitter.com/lYR1Nxqhnv

Photographer Joseph Radikh also took to the platform to share his thoughts on the future, more precisely what Christmas 2025 would look like.

“I still cannot bring myself to type or talk to an artificial being, but I can see so many humans using this for hours on end. Pair it with smart glasses, and full dystopia is here,” he wrote.

Christmas 2025, we are all going to be re-enacting scenes from Her, and Black Mirror. 18 months, full fluency.

I still cannot bring myself to type or talk to an artificial being, but I can see so many humans using this for hours on end.

Pair it with smart glasses, and full… https://t.co/hLgqfsiLKi

— Joe (@josephradhik) May 13, 2024

Down the road, OpenAI says GPT-4o will get even better at talking in real time and understanding live videos. What’s more, it speaks over 50 languages.

Free users can now enjoy GPT-4-level intelligence, web-based responses, and more. Plus, there’s a new desktop app for macOS users, making AI integration seamless.

The announcement of the new model also comes at a time when rumours of Apple closing a deal with OpenAI to bring AI features to its devices seem to get more real. Could the iOS 18 Siri be based on the GPT-4o model? Could 2013’s Samantha be 2024’s Siri? We will find out next month at WWDC.

Google Pixel 9 series images seem to have leaked five months before the launch

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

If there is one thing we can count on Google for, it’s failing to keep their unreleased Pixel devices under wraps.

This time, the real-life images of the Pixel 9, the Pixel 9 Pro and the Pixel 9 Pro XL have reportedly leaked five months before the usual October launch for the flagships.

Tech blog Rozetked posted the photos in a post saying that they were provided to the editors by an anonymous source. The official names of the devices are not confirmed at the moment but all three models have codenames within the company.

Вся линейка Google Pixel 9 на качественных фото.

Анонимный источник вновь предоставил нам большое количество фотографий и информации о всей линейке Pixel 9: размеры экранов, сравнение с iPhone 15 Pro и 15 Pro Max, данные о камерах и не только.https://t.co/ERsENIYqeG pic.twitter.com/TQtJvhjDBK

— Rozetked (@rozetked) May 13, 2024

The report suggests that the Pixel 9 — codenamed Tokay — will come with 12GB of RAM and 128GB of storage; the Pixel 9 Pro — called Caiman internally – will have 16GB of RAM and 128GB of storage; and the Pixel 9 Pro XL, or Komodo, will have the same configurations as the Pro model but with a bigger screen size.

The Pixel 9 is expected to have a 6.24-inch display and the Pixel 9 Pro a 6.34-inch display. They are said to have the same dimensions, the only difference being the thinner bezel on the Pro model. The bigger Pixel 9 Pro XL will likely sport a 6.73-inch screen. All three devices will support a 120 Hz refresh rate.

The camera setup on the Pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL is identical with all three lenses being 50MP with 0.5x, 1x, and 5x zoom capabilities. The Pixel 9, on the other hand, will likely only have 0.5x and 1x zoom.

Design-wise, the leaks are in line with what we have been seeing so far — liking it or not is a discussion for another day — with the flatter edges and the revamped camera visor. All models are expected to run on Google’s latest in-house chip, the Tensor G4.
