What's in this week's issue?

At this year's Siggraph event, Nvidia's Jen-Hsun Huang sat down with Wired for an hour-long chat about all things Nvidia, RTX, and AI. Among the varied topics touched upon, including a recognition that AI training and inference have huge energy demands, was Huang's assertion that more computers are going to be needed for AI systems in the future—specifically, three times more.

Huang mentioned how the world of AI is now moving away from its pioneering phase and moving toward the next one, which Nvidia's CEO called the "enterprise wave." After that comes the "physical wave", which, according to Huang, is "really, really quite extraordinary."

He clarified that statement by saying three computers will be required: one computer to create the AI, another to simulate and refine the AI, and finally a third computer to run the AI itself. "It's a three computer problem. You know, a three body problem and it's so incredibly complicated and we created three computers to do that."

A YouTube creator is seeking to bring a class action lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging that the company trained its generative AI models on millions of transcripts from YouTube videos without notifying or compensating the videos’ owners.

In a complaint filed Friday in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, attorneys for David Millette, a YouTube user based in Massachusetts, allege that OpenAI surreptitiously transcribed Millette’s and other creators’ videos to train the models that power the company’s AI-powered chatbot platform, ChatGPT, and other generative AI tools and products.

By collecting this data, OpenAI “profited significantly” from the creators’ work, the complaint alleges, while violating copyright law and YouTube’s terms of service that prohibit the use of videos for apps independent of its service.
