OpenAI has been busy the last few days. Last week it was revealed that they're teaming up with Microsoft to build a US$100b on a supercomputer dubbed Stargate. It would need up to 5GW of power, which to put into perspective, is roughly the peak power generation of the entire state of Victoria. ETA on that bad boy is 2028. They also announced Voice Engine, "a text-to-speech AI model for creating synthetic voices based on a 15-second segment of recorded audio" that they're not releasing because it's too good and society isn't ready for it. As Dave Karpf explains, there's no way this thing isn't being primarily used for crime. Meanwhile, Sam Altman was in Hollywood giving demos of its Sora model that can make videos from a text prompt to major studios. Fun times ahead!
