Sadly I've not been able to blog anything really this week due to a surgery on Monday that led to unexpected complications. That said, there have been some interesting developments on the AI front this week. There's been a lot around personal AI in that there are more and more options for powerful AI that can be downloaded onto your own PC. It helps if you have a powerful GPU to run these models, but they can also be run on the CPU. I'm still wrestling in my head with the benefits of a local AI though as ultimately the full power of AI would be its ability to sort through a knowledge base being the Internet. It does, however, present more options for specific job based AI to emerge though that is only accessing proprietary data (or mainly proprietary data).

The more interesting development for me was the release of Auto-GPT which looks to be crazy powerful. Sadly, I've not had any time to play with it, but what this does is allow you to specify goals and have Auto-GPT create instances of Chat-GPT to work on those goals. You can set it to have memory, so it remembers what has been created and it can then evaluate which of the responses best meets the goals you set it. It also has the ability to allow Chat GPT to search the Internet. Now, it's currently only text based (command prompt) and requires a fair bit of setup, so I don't think we'll see this version be adopted en masse, but this looks to have huge potential. Here's the link to the Auto-GPT site, take a look at the video on the front page to see what it can do.

As for the Top Secret AI, that really comes back to why I've not been around this week and what my surgery was related to. I will be referencing many films in this blog. For those who remember the scene in Top Secret:
