Meta last Thursday, December 12, announced that it was releasing a new artificial intelligence model called Motivo, which can control the movements of a human-like digital agent and potentially enhance the Metaverse experience.
The mentioned company has invested tens of billions of dollars in machine intelligence, augmented reality, and other Metaverse technologies. The technology giant also raised its capital expenditure forecast for 2024 to an all-time high range of $37 billion to $40 billion.
It is worth noting that Meta releases many of its artificial intelligence models for free use by developers. The technology giant suggests that an appropriate open approach can benefit its business by contributing to improving the tools for its services.
Meta’s statement noted that the company believes this research could pave the way for fully embodied agents in the Metaverse, leading to more lifelike NPCs, democratization of character animation, and new types of immersive experiences.
The new artificial intelligence model addresses body control problems commonly seen in digital avatars, enabling them to perform movements in a more realistic, human-like manner.
The technology giant also introduced a different training model for language modeling called the Large Concept Model (LCM). In this case, the goal is to decouple reasoning from language representation.
It is worth noting that during the period of active development of artificial intelligence, the issue of cybersecurity has become more relevant. Scammers also have access to AI technology. Personal awareness of users is important to counteract the corresponding threat. For example, a query in an Internet search engine, such as how to know if my camera is hacked, will allow anyone to get information about signs of unauthorized access to the device.
