President Donald Trump on Friday added some electronics to the list of products exempt from reciprocal tariffs. Imported smartphones, flat panel display modules and a broader list of electronic integrated circuits will no longer be subject to the 10% baseline reciprocal tariff worldwide, as a result of a presidential memorandum. The president included those products in a list of 20 harmonized tariff system codes that he said would qualify as “semiconductors.” In previous orders, the president had expressly exempt semiconductors — along with…

NVIDIA has announced a foundation AI model for humanoid robots called NVIDIA Isaac GR00T N1, aka GR00T N1. The chip maker announced that this pre-trained AI model is available as open-source. The announcement came at the company’s annual GTC conference, which took place in San Jose, California, on March 18. NVIDIA has announced the GR00T N1, a foundation AI model for humanoid robots NVIDIA reportedly trained the GR00T N1 AI model on existing datasets and synthetically generated data. For those unaware, synthetic data is artificially created using computational methods and simulations and mimics the statistical properties of real-world data. The…

There’s been a lot of talk recently about whether large language models (LLMs) are replacing a considerable amount of Google searches. While Google is clearly still the market leader, with 14 billion searches per day worldwide, an estimated 37.5 million “searches” on ChatGPT represent an opportunity for your brand. SEO professionals have years of experience testing optimization tactics on Google, but we’re still at the beginning stages of understanding how to get your brand cited in generative AI chatbots. This is an exciting opportunity because it forces people to test and learn rapidly. Through some testing and research, here are some…

A new paper co-authored by the former CEO of Google has outlined a future where AI training data centers could be blown up by foreign nations.Eric Schmidt, along with Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang and the Center for AI Safety’s Dan Hendrycks, warned that “destabilizing AI developments could rupture the balance of power and raise the odds of great-power conflict.”The paper lays out the concept of Mutual Assured AI Malfunction (MAIM), modeled on nuclear mutual assured destruction (MAD), where any “aggressive bid for unilateral AI dominance is met with preventive sabotage by rivals.”This could involve espionage, cyberattacks, or kinetic strikes…

C3.ai experienced a 5% price increase last week, potentially driven by its recent strategic alliance with PwC. This partnership aims to implement AI-powered business transformation across industries such as banking, financial services, and manufacturing. The focus includes tailored solutions like C3 AI Reliability and C3 AI Anti-Money Laundering. Amid broader market downturns, where the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq experienced declines of up to 1.5%, C3.ai’s gains appear noteworthy. While major indexes saw negative sentiment driven by economic concerns and high-profile events in the tech sector, the company’s strategic moves and industry-specific offerings possibly provided positive investor sentiment and…

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang appears to have struck a deal with the Trump administration to avoid export restrictions on the company’s H20 AI chips. The H20, the most advanced Nvidia-produced AI chip that can still be exported from the U.S. to China, was reportedly spared thanks to a promise from Huang to invest in new AI data centers in the U.S. According to NPR, Huang made the proposal during a dinner at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort sometime last week. Nvidia declined to comment. Many in the semiconductor industry feared H20s, which are modified to have lower performance than other Nvidia chips,…

We propose a new problem, In-2-4D, for generative 4D (i.e., 3D + motion) inbetweening from a minimalistic input setting: two single-view images capturing an object in two distinct motion states. Given two images representing the start and end states of an object in motion, our goal is to generate and reconstruct the motion in 4D. We utilize a video interpolation model to predict the motion, but large frame-to-frame motions can lead to ambiguous interpretations. To overcome this, we employ a hierarchical approach to identify keyframes that are visually close to the input states and show significant motion, then generate smooth…
