Facebook parent company Meta on Wednesday detailed several research efforts that it insists are key to its project of building a metaverse.: While some of the work, like a new type of haptic gloves, is closely tied to virtual reality, a number of the efforts Meta talked about on Wednesday predate the company's metaverse push and have wide use beyond it.
Bordes also said that computer vision systems based on self-supervised AI have the potential to be less biased, since humans aren't adding their own labels to the data.capable of converting texts directly between 100 different languages in real-time without needing to use English as an intermediary step.
That means being able to solve for 10,000 different language-to-language pairings, but allows the technology to go "beyond the populations that have been well served with technology," Bordes said — something that wasn't possible two years ago. Overall, Meta says that currently more than 20 percent of the world's population uses a language not covered by commercial language translation systems. "We don't have to wait for the metaverse to happen to have impact," Bordes said.: Facebook tried to paint its work as a contribution to the broader field of artificial intelligence. The company pledged to be transparent about its research as well as to share some of the code through open source releases.
Good timing! Way to not turn off automated tweeting die to a fucking war!
Can we have nukes in the meta verse?
