A New AI Lab Aims to Teach Machines Like Humans
A new artificial intelligence lab called Flapping Airplanes has recently secured $180 million in funding from major investors, including Google Ventures and Sequoia. Unlike many other labs that focus on training AI using vast amounts of data from the internet, Flapping Airplanes is taking a different approach. The team, which includes brothers Ben and Asher Spector along with their co-founder Aidan Smith, believes that the brain should be seen as a starting point for AI development, not a limit. Their goal is to create models that learn in a more human-like way, which could lead to significant advancements in AI technology.
This innovative approach has the potential to change how we understand and develop artificial intelligence. By focusing on learning methods similar to those used by humans, Flapping Airplanes hopes to unlock new possibilities in the field. Their funding success indicates strong support from major players in the tech industry, suggesting that this lab could play a crucial role in the future of AI research and development.
