UNREAL ENGINE JUST GOT A BIT MORE REAL

Luma AI, a leader in NeRF performance for personal use, is adding a plugin to Unreal Engine, a 3-D creation tool for video games and animation.

Check out their promo video:

Okay, cool, but what does this mean for you? For starters, video games are about to get ten times more realistic because this all centers around the technical concept of NeRFs (Neural Radiance Fields).

You’ve seen them used around you whether you realize it or not. A NeRF model takes 2D images and then compiles them into a rendering of the 3D version.

Any AR or VR setup you’ve tried has likely used NeRFs.

Luma AI takes the same idea and empowers everyone to use them. Now, they’re going one step further by helping game developers add real-world objects and environments into their games through a plugin.

You could also use this for more effortless visual effects on a film or any visual media requiring 3D modeling.

By adding their tool to the Unreal Engine platform, they’ll save teams hundreds of hours that it would typically take to make a game or film scene more realistic.

Large Langauge Models are not the only AI making a difference and driving automation. Don’t sleep on NeRFs and Diffusion models, you guys.

OPENAI IS STARTING TO PUSH FOR REVENUE MORE

The team at OpenAI built a great product in GPT-3.5_turbo and GPT-4. They know it, you know it, and companies are clamoring for it.

The rise in interest among enterprise clients shows the growing corporate footprint for AI.

Money talks and the fact OpenAI went from barely any revenue to millions in months proves that AI models have a ton of staying power. More demand for public-facing generative AI tools keeps the momentum going up.

There are long-term ramifications tied up in this trendline.

More companies spending on AI validates the concept, pours new data and use cases into research, and bolsters capital expenses for development. You get a better version of GPT-5 thanks to increased sales.

Plus, a diverse set of APIs and plugin partners opens up distribution and exposes more of the general public to these tools.

Sure, your parents don’t use ChatGPT, but they might sign up for Doulingo’s new tutor that runs on the GPT-3.5 API.

We’re not talking about Web3 hype or some obscure Silicon Valley secret. AI is out in the open and powering more tools that anyone can use. We’re no longer saving them for hidden algorithms that decide what to show you.

It’s mindblowing that all these operational developments are still happening through a small sales team.

What happens when OpenAI starts to turn up the heat and start cooking?

My cousin came to visit me in New York. It’s weird I took him to Times Square, but all he wanted to do was see Central Park.
