Google JUST Revealed Its OpenAI ChatGPT TERMINATOR w/ THIS NEW AI From DeepMind? | Sparrow Chatbot
Deep Learning AI Specialization: https://imp.i384100.net/GET-STARTED
Google is preparing to release its Sparrow AI chatbot to compete with OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which was trained on human feedback and uses Google search to answer about current information, may be their answer as its likely going into beta this year. Google Deepmind releases its DreamerV3 reinforcement learning general AI that was trained in a fraction of the time required for OpenAIs similar project, but also needed no human input to be able to complete various tasks in minecraft. German Bionic showed its artificial intelligence powered robotic exoskeleton at CES 2023, which helps workers lift objects of up to 30 kilograms.

Bionic 3rd thumb: The future of human augmentation | Hard Reset
We flew to the UK to learn more about the designer 3D-printing third thumbs. Is this the dawn of human body augmentation?
Watch the Hard Reset series ► https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXthoedLVIdLvnNgiCshQvqKdS7T_qeGY
Motorized prosthetics are nothing new. But what about artificial body parts that don’t replace missing ones, but instead provide us with extended capabilities, while also revealing insights into the relationship between brain and body?
That’s the main research focus of augmentation designer Dani Clode, who developed the Third Thumb, a 3D-printed extension for your hand that is controlled by your toes.
Through collaborative neuroscientific research with The Plasticity Lab at University College London & Cambridge University, Clode and her colleagues hope to better understand how the brain adapts to augmentation, learn more about the limits of neuroplasticity, and explore how to best utilize it to improve the control and usability of prosthetics and augmentative devices.

God, Human, Animal, & Machine | Meghan O’Gieblyn, Feedback Loop ep 54
This week our guest is Meghan O’Gieblyn, who has written regularly for entities such as Wired, The New York Times, and The Guardian, in addition to authoring books such as Interior States and her latest book: God, Human, Animal, Machine: Technology, Metaphor, and the Search for Meaning.
Interestingly, much of Meghan’s work pulls on her experience losing her faith in religion while simultaneously being drawn into transhumanism from reading the Age of Spiritual Machines by Singularity’s very own Ray Kurzweil. This exploration of Meghan’s background and her latest book takes us on a journey through the ways in which technology and spirituality have historically woven together, the current ways in which they are conflicting, and the future philosophical questions we’re going to be forced to reconcile. For those of you interested in this subject, I highly recommend going and listening to episode 52 with Micah Redding, which lays a lot of the foundation that we build on her in this episode.
Find out more about Meghan through her website meghanogieblyn.com, or find her book on Amazon.

Ability Hand — a revolution in bionic technology
It is the first bionic hand with a multi-touch feedback feature and boasts a 32-grip pattern.
Psyonic, a bionic device manufacturer, presented the Ability Hand at CES 2023, the world’s first touch-sensing bionic hand. The hand can feel the things it holds, even the most delicate objects. It is a bionic prosthetic device, and the company aims to deliver it to more people than ever.
Psyonic.
The product is the first bionic hand with a multi-touch feedback feature. It weighs only 490 grams, which is 20 percent less than the average human hand. It has a 200-millisecond closing speed that makes it faster than any other bionic hand available on the market. It means it closes its fingers at a lightning-fast speed that shows its capability to grasp things faster than other bionic hands.
