Rumors suggest NVIDIA may introduce a new TITAN AI graphics card based on the Blackwell GPU. Tech leakers hint at this top-tier card's existence, despite NVIDIA's previous decision to not release a Titan variant for the RTX 40 series. The release and actual utility of such a high-performance GPU, potentially 63% faster than the RTX 4090, remain uncertain. Market dominance by the RTX 4090 may make a new Titan superfluous.

Elon Musk says that he will ‘discuss' with Tesla regarding investing $5 billion in xAI, his own private artificial intelligence company.

OpenAI anticipated spending around $4 billion on Microsoft's Azure servers for ChatGPT inference in 2023, potentially causing significant financial losses. Although OpenAI is profiting approximately $2 billion annually from ChatGPT, it may require additional funding within a year to address a projected $5 billion shortfall. It currently utilizes the equivalent of 350,000 Nvidia A100 chip servers, mainly for ChatGPT, with discounted rates from Azure.

A new and improved monocular depth model for a variety of in the wild scenarios.

StreamMOS is a new method for segmenting moving objects using LiDAR in autonomous driving and robotics.

Researchers have developed a method to improve mobile photography by integrating miniaturized spectrometers. This new approach uses a combination of RGB and low-resolution multi-spectral images to enhance image quality.
