What TED Will Look Like in 40 Years — According to Sora, OpenAI’s Unreleased Text-to-Video Model
Sora, an unreleased AI model from OpenAI, generates realistic and imaginative video from text prompts. Acclaimed filmmaker Paul Trillo was granted early access just before the TED2024 conference. This year marks TED’s 40th anniversary — but instead of looking back, we asked Sora to show us what the next 40 years could look like. (Footage…

KindMindfulness
August 17, 2023 at 6:14 pm
@JoseRX95 Absolutely! I would look forward to stop stacking boxes and find training to become a robot controller, or robot maintenance worker, or robot tester, or anything that would help the robot work the mindless, dangerous jobs. Any industry that “hires” robots should provide training to move its workforce into other positions. Just look back at the times when we depended on human strength to move pulleys, pull carts, push wagons in mines, dig holes for tunnels, so on and so forth… Back then there was also a furor of fear that men would starve for lack of jobs. Instead, men became conductors, controllers, drivers, planners and so on. Robots will also increase productivity, which in turn can allow for humans to work less hours/week with same income. We need to move forward. And we will move forward. Those who refuse to accept it and don’t start looking at work opportunities alongside robots will be the only ones without a job.

@UserName-sv8sf look up agility robotics Salem factory in Google it should lead to an article about this company opening up a factory in Salem, OR to build these robots. In it, the article states that the average cost of the a robot costs 250K. I could’ve read it wrong though. You could also look up the price on their website. I found out about this company through that article and came to see what the robot was and why it cost so much. I was kinda disappointed. I thought I was going to get an I robot style robot but I guess we’re not there yet in terms of tech level. 💁♂️
