At SIGGRAPH 2024 edition (Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques), which is currently ongoing at the Colorado Convention Center until 1 August, Jensen Huang and Mark Zuckerberg engaged in an energetic debate about the future of artificial intelligence.
The SIGGRAPH 2024 discussion was transmitted live on Nvidia’s website.
The discussion took place on Monday, the first day of SIGGRAPH 2024. Among other topics, the CEOs of Nvidia and META discussed what is coming next in AI and how the new technology will be integrated.
Mark Zuckerberg news quoted him from the SIGGRAPH stage: “It’s exciting. There is a lot of new stuff to build. Progress on [AI] fundamental research is accelerating. It’s a pretty wild time.”
Meta’s CEO said that they can develop new technology for the next five years based only on the existing AI model technology. He also estimates that every company will eventually have an AI-powered representative who will discuss and interact with the public.
Other Mark Zuckerberg news reports claim that he expects a world in which the company’s following 4.0 edition of its Llama AI model will be capable of becoming an agent. This would involve giving the program a direction, and it will respond with a firm answer after a few weeks or months after doing its research and measurement. Meta launched version 3.1 of Llama last week.
Huang responded by praising the SIGGRAPH 2024 stage’s Meta’s work in developing the Llama open-source AI model family. He said Llama supports more creators and businesses entering AI model technology.
In other Mark Zuckerberg news, we found out that he expressed his dissatisfaction with closed platforms at SIGGRAPH 2024: “There have been too many things I’ve tried to build and told ‘nah, you can’t really build that’ by the platform provider, that at some level I’m just like, ‘Nah…..We’re going to build all the way down for the next generation.”
Mark Zuckerberg news claims that he mistakenly said an unkind word during that specific part of the discussion. The same Jensen Huang news claimed that the Nvidia CEO taunted Zuckerberg, saying: “There goes our broadcast opportunity.”
However, the episode took a lighter turn when, at the end of the discussion, Zuckerberg and Huang swapped their customized jackets, recreating a previously famous meme early in the year.
Jensen Huang's news affirmed that his jacket was a present from his wife to celebrate his role at the SIGGRAPH 2024 edition, while Zuckerberg’s coat was portrayed as “black and leather and shearling.
In other Jensen Huang news, it seems that the chief of Nvidia wasn't affected by the 1.30% slump. Between June 13 and July 24, he sold 3.36 million shares of Nvidia for $424 million.
