Check out what I've been working on lately. Immersive View for Routes.

We've been shipping NeRFs to Google Maps for a few months now. As of this morning, you can read about how we do it: ai.googleblog.com/2023/06/recons…

Immersive View gives users a virtual, close-up look at indoor spaces in 3D! Learn how it uses neural radiance fields to seamlessly fuse photos to produce realistic, multidimensional reconstructions of your favorite businesses and public spaces → goo.gle/3X6L9G8

What a week for AI! Not yet scary, but a feeling is in the air. Things are heating up and people are conflicted. Why are the brightest minds in AI asking for a 6 month pause, while others say it doesn't go far enough? 🤯 Here's why this debate deserves our attention. 🧵 Thread

🤯 Hiroshima dropped and there was pin drop silence. Weights for a powerful large language model by Meta are now being torrented into ubiquity ☁️ 🧠 What this means is everyone now has access to a GPT caliber model, without the (often) acutely limiting trust & safety layer of an OpenAI API. This is sex without a condom, and I don’t mean waifu diffusion 😂 💬 This will do for text as a modality what stable diffusion did for imagery this past year vs. DALL-E 2. Of course new capabilities will arise working in concert with it, RLHFing it, empowering use cases aplenty 📈 🏛️ Calls for government intervention are fascinating. I get that position but have also seen the benefits of open source first hand. Make no mistake — it’s a double edged sword ⚔️ 💸 Guaranteed awesomeness will ensue with a level playing field in LLMs eroding OpenAI’s advantage, but also unleashing large scale spam and misinformation on the internet 📧 ⚖️ It’s a fine balance to strike. You can let things acclimatize in open source or you can treat AI like nuclear — system level surveillance to stop rogue AI while also controlling access to GPU clusters ☢️ 🏰 Will be interesting to see how USG reacts. Other nation states already had these systems. And now the community does too. What do you think — How might this play out? 🤨 #LLaMa #artificialintelligence #machinelearning

Are you the sort of person who needs to get the feel of somewhere before you commit? 🗺 With immersive view on Google Maps, you can see what a neighborhood is like before you even set foot there📍 ✨ Coming to more cities in the next few months ✨ #googlelivefromparis

@Creepstown @axl99 @CrypticStudios makes coins for titles shipped and years served. They are indeed wonderful little tokens to have!

@axl99 Yeah, I was originally thinking like an olympic medal, but a coin is better.

If you were at a studio for 5 years, what would you rather have instead of a sword or shield or suit of armor?

@Corgiboltz Congrats on the launch dude!

What an absolutely amazing day. Core memories that I will cherish forever. Love this team. #GodofWarRagnarok is out! Hope you all enjoy!

AI short film created with text-to-video. phenaki.research.google imagen.research.google/video/ At the rate of advance in this area of research, we are likely ~2 years out from seeing a major tv show fully created using similar techniques. prompt in comments! #generativeart #AIart

AI art is fun, especially when you use it to edit reality! I used DALL-E to transform the Palace of Fine Arts into something out of this world 🪄 Can’t wait till AI video generation become even more accessible! 🎥 #dalle2 #aiart #ArtificialIntelligence #augmentedreality

Goshhhh.... FINALLY !!! 3rd attempt to fluid simulations 🫠 Big thanks to @IRCSS for detailed explenation of GPU fluids simulation and @_kzr for clean and simple implementation ( Links in thread ) #madewithunity #gamedevelopment

@cman2k @LumaLabsAI What phone sid you use?

Using NeRF and AI to capture objects and spaces with your phone is really going to blow people's minds. Captured with @LumaLabsAI beta. #NeRF #NGP #3DScan

@ImPaulGale @LumaLabsAI I made a floating box in the center of the room with no focus objects as a hack, but later found out there's a free form mode apparently?

@cman2k @LumaLabsAI Out of curiosity do you remember which objects you chose as the subject in these scenes?

@KayVriend @LumaLabsAI Yes, if you view the 3d mesh you can move the camera around as you wish.

@cman2k @LumaLabsAI Can you explore with a unrestricted camera? I know most scenes would fall apart when looked at from certain angles, but it would be so cool still.
