Can AI take control of a robot?

The AI researchers at Andon Labs, the people who gave Anthropic Claude an office vending machine to run, and hilarity ensued, have published the results of a new AI experiment.

They wanted to see if LLMs were technically capable of functioning as a robot s brain, that is, connecting their thinking (textual decision-making) with real sensors and movement.

How to Use AI to Make Movies Better (Hint: It’s Not by Replacing Creatives)

I've been making short films for as long as I can remember. 

My first short was back in middle school, where my brother and I pretended we were in Star Wars, dueling with dowel rod lightsabers. By the time I met my co-founders, Spencer and Charlie, in college, my storytelling had (I hope) evolved well past my VFX-obsessed origin story.

We met on the set of a feel-good student short I directed last fall. But this wasn t backyard filmmaking anymore. We quickly got stuck in a hellish landscape of spreadsheets. Nobody s availability lined up, everyone was overwhelmed, and it took forever to finish the film.

Founders: what is your favourite channel for growing your audience?

I m pretty sure most founders grow mainly on Twitter. Or LinkedIn.

But I ve realised it really depends on what kind of product you ve built.

If you re a fashion-focused founder, you probably grew up on Instagram or Pinterest.
