Been working on some cool stuff with the BCI team at @sigrobotics ! We got the Chrome Dino game to jump by flexing our biceps using EMG signals to test our data recorder. Huge shoutout to the team for making this happen! @a2th2tn @AVMishra08 @sids347 @rzheng1232

Check out our BCI team. They got their EEG electrodes up and running and it can now pick out eye-movement blinking signals. It proves the hardware works and the procedure is dialed. Next up: mind control 🧠

Decided to test out the new @xAI Voice Agent Builder by calling @forwarddeploy’s agent. I asked about xAI and how I could connect with Umesh. The agent said it’d redirect me… and it actually did. 😂 Very impressive.
Built an entire voice clone of myself in around 3 mins! Call my voice agent: (571) 366-2813 > downloaded granola notes (1 min) > gave to grok to sanitize any sensitive info (30 sec) > voice cloned my voice (1 min) > setup my voice agent (30 sec) > got a new phone number (5 seconds)

Today I'm excited to introduce Hark, a new artificial intelligence lab building the most advanced, personal intelligence in the world We've been in stealth for 8 months, assembling one of the greatest AI and hardware teams on the planet I want to explain why I started Hark and what we're focused on I've spent the last 3 years working on the hardest AI challenge imaginable: giving AI a humanoid body. On the digital side, I've been using all the existing LLM chatbots - and I have to say, they feel incredibly dumb to me AGI, in the limit, should feel like a sci-fi movie. It should be able to listen and talk. It should have persistent memory and be highly personalized. It should see and touch the world. But we're far from this today We are crafting a new interface to AGI. Intelligence that lets you offload your mental workload into a system that begins to think like you and sometimes ahead of you We started Hark with one goal: build the world's most advanced personal intelligence - paired with next-generation hardware designed to serve as a universal interface between humans and machines hark.com

We've uploaded a fruit fly. We took the @FlyWireNews connectome of the fruit fly brain, applied a simple neuron model (@Philip_Shiu Nature 2024) and used it to control a MuJoCo physics-simulated body, closing the loop from neural activation to action. A few things I want to say about what this means and where we're going at @eonsys. 🧵
