Instead of reading out a script, I decide to film myself reading out a script instead to prove I'm not AI. As I talk about AI in this heavily edited video
I love the fact you can watch Philips finger scrolling the mouse, as he reads through his script. No teleprompter needed, just a monitor with a Word-document behind the camera. Great stuff
You used Google's Ai to write this comment! :) haha! I typed my comment and asked the AI to help me edit it and it gave me the same exact comment as yours! Interesting!
It’s a neat format but I prefer the standard. I don’t see why we should be able to seem him talking - it doesn’t really add anything to the video and robs precious space from more radical images he could bestow upon us.
The NPUs are just accelerators. The future is going to involve more and more bespoke accelerators for specific tasks. Computer vision, audio comprehension, low precision integer linear algebra. All of these will have specific chips for them that will be branded together as an AI coprocessor
"Everything is now suddenly AI" me making it to the end of the Game Making Journey playlist and realizing the last video was two years ago and 2kliksphilip since then has been mostly content about AI upscaling
philip really displaying his godlike professionalism as he continues to perfectly deliver the script as fluffykins places her entire bodyweight on his goolies
By far the most annoying thing about "AI" is that it is now an umbrella term for any of 6+ different things, most commonly referred as a machine learning or a trained ML model, a.k.a. statistical guesswork.
But it IS an umberalla term. Artificial intelligence. If it is artificial, and shows signs of intelligence, it is AI. It's not the same sort of intelligence animals have, because we have much more complex neural networks ourselves, yet it is still intelligent. It understands concepts and patterns, it can continue and combine patterns, it can learn new patterns. We need to recognize that denying it is intelligence is just moving the goal post. We don't have a well defined border. The Turing test has been beat. It writes better original poetry than I do. It writes better music than I do, it's better than me in everything except meta functions, like planning, short term memory, social intelligence, physical movement estimation, sensory perception etc.
@@carlpanzram7081 We didn't call weather forecasting models as intelligent, even though they outperformed humans by a very large margin. Models now outputting things that also humans do does not suddenly transmute it into an intelligent being. Computers are effectively perfect at statistics and it just so happens that a lot of things can be reduced to a statistical formulation. AI as a term was chosen by and large because it's a more mainstream and familiar term than ML, not because of any actual good reason which would make it a more accurate way of referring to the thing.
It's called "mood affiliation" when people form their opinions based on how something makes them feel, and then that mood forms their views. AI ads -> negative "mood" / feeling -> AI bad.
I had a business lecture for my minor in college, I actual major IT. So we all had to propose a business idea for a project. 2/4 groups all used it repeatedly in the presentations thinking it was this magic bullet that could do their entire application, platform and everything and while we the other groups were supposed to give them honest grades, I gave every group max points as let's be honest its a dick move to fail another classmate. But I certainly gave them my peace during the questioning section.😊

Man, despite recent questions you've had about making videos, I hope you continue for years to come. I've enjoyed your videos since the rally video. Your insightful, thoughtful, and even-tempered analysis is a breath of fresh air compared to most of the people making videos on YT. Please, keep it up.
Big fan of the more face to face video. probably best suited for tech related stuff rather than other topics. reminds me of techlinks content which i also really love.
7:25 The most poetic ending I ever seen ! It perfectly illustrates the struggle of the users to keep a balance in an ever changing industry in order to not let anyone down.
I think NPUs will be useful for things that are not "AI" related tasks just like how people are using GPUs for things that are not actually related to gaming even though the first 3D graphics cards were meant for gaming. The NPU will be a different type of co-processor to do matrix math or something. I hope it can be used in a "general purpose" sense like that anyways. This way we have yet another co-processor alongside the traditional x87 FPU, our dedicated GPUs, and the hardware associated with SIMD on the CPUs themselves.
I find myself loving that shade of blue more as the video went on. Its very striking and I haven't seen a fireplace all painted the same as cupboard and wall. Its something I would do if I actually had a fireplace now I've seen it.
Phillip, if you really want to fool us, you're going to have to have at 6 cameras all surrounded around you while the video is in a 360 cubemapped version of your life
I really liked this style of video - I hope you do more of them (not every video of course as I still like your editing) but for topics like these it would be welcome :-)
Phillip I could hear you talk about anything for hours on end. You're such an interesting and unique bloke and you have a level of realness that is not present anywhere else on RU-vid. Pair that with your dad's music and it's a match made in heaven
I really like this new format where 2kliksphilip talks to the camera. It's a nice change of pace and it's also great to see the infamous Fluffykins make an appearance.
as with pretty much every technology jumping on at this stage doesn't really make sense for the consumer I have to mention tho that you are the new king of youtube titles
I thought my inner mom had gone dormant but apparently not because I kept hearing Norman Bates mother shouting, "Sit up straight, boy! That isn't how you recieve guests!"
As a software engineer, I really dislike the topic of AI. It's not because it's a bad topic-quite the opposite; it's great and interesting and im using it every day. However, I dislike how many people are uninformed and completely miss the point of AI, and how the media overuses the term. That's why I'm annoyed when this topic comes up.
Well... This "NPU" cores, as far as my understanding goes, might just been a replacement for AVX512., something that these "AI" accelerators happily use. IT's not a replacement for a GPU's 10k cores or whatever, but it does add some boost.
0:24 I don't like being the tech bro guy, but it bothers me so many "tech experts" say AI has no practical use yet when I use it almost every week at my job. Linus Tech Tips specifically likes to laugh at it a lot. AI has been solving problems without anyone knowing for years. One of my college professors wrote like 15 academic papers on ways to speed up internet with AI, and actually proved it by speeding up the internet for our entire school by about 15%.
Right now the technology is most useful for researchers, coding with LLMs, enterprise robotic, quant and in general statistics (data science's use). In the future it would be nice seeing more uses for everyday users, especially in games where we could instead predict each rendered pixel instead of rendering them statically one by one to improve performance like dlss does. Giving us more frames, or even improving frame times to remove the stuttering in some games.
Phillip there's a slight delay on your audio / mouth movements when speaking. I think some software can fix that, not sure which or how though. Maybe ask Tom Scott? His always looks fine.
To me the best strategy is to delay the upgrade until ether a solid use case emerges that makes me want to get new tech, or enough time would pass to cut the hype/marketing markup. Plus - if you don't get the first gen right away, you'll have a choice to get it later at a discount, if second gen would be marginally better. And if the second gen would run laps around the first - then you didn't waste money for the privilege to become an early adopter
I imagine within a few years open world rpgs will make great use of NPUs and AI. Imagine a Nazeem that disses you in infinite different ways whenever you walk past him instead of repeating the same tired line about the cloud district.
I think this video style with you actually in frame works well, at least partially, for some of the content you make. Nice change of pace and good video as always !
That was an amazing use of AI video generation by adding a cat dynamically as the video progressed. It's as if it was there in your lap. Impressive! Maybe this AI has something to it.
We just got a Nuc 14 to put in our robot and the NPU and GPU combination on that thing is God tier for the power it consumes. Going to help make our robots way better at navigation.
imagine real time ai based theme changes so youre playing tf2, but in the style of van gogh, or some other trippy shit josalt did a video like this on bonelab vr, and damn it would be an awesome experience real time and in vr
I actually really like this style of video philip! i dont even know if thats your proper name. i do actually hope you make more like this, but with weirder and weirder reading locations, eventually having you read a script behind a dumpster or something
Never expected seeing your face saying words so much, plus a Fluffykins cameo. What a win Anyways, I always enjoy your AI coverage videos, always insightful
