「AI株を揺るがすDeepSeek」 DeepSeekは、中国のスタートアップAI企業で、コスト効率の高い大規模言語モデルを開発しています。主力のR1推論モデルはOpenAIのo1相当と同等の性能を持ち、最新のJanus ProマルチモーダルAIはStable DiffusionやDALL-E 3を上回ると主張しています。 「OpenAIのリサーチャーがまた辞職」 OpenAIのセーフティリサーチャーのスティーブン・アドラー氏は、4年間の在籍後、昨年末に退職したと発表しました。Xでの投稿で、主要AI研究機関と超大国間のAGI競争を批判しています。 「Samsung Android XRヘッドセット」 MKBHDがYouTubeでSamsungのAndroid XRヘッドセットを初めて公開しました。Apple Vision Proや、Meta QuestやPicoと同様のスキーマスク型フェイシャルインターフェイスを採用していますが、Samsungのヘッドセットは、Meta Quest ProやPS VR2に似たヘイローストラップを採用しています。 「Threads、アメリカと日本で広告のテストを実施中」 XのライバルであるThreadsは、現在アメリカと日本で厳選したブランドと広告のテストを実施していると発表しました。Instagramの責任者アダム・モッセリ氏は、他の市場へ拡大する前にユーザーのフィードバックを収集し、改善を図る方針を示しています。 「Netflix、iPhoneとiPadアプリの不満を一つのボタンで解消」 Netflixは、iPhone・iPad向けにシーズンダウンロードボタンを追加しました。Androidでおなじみのこの機能で、ワンタップで全エピソードをダウンロード可能になります。 「Boom XB-1、超音速飛行に成功 民間機としては初」 Boom Supersonic社のXB-1実証機がカリフォルニア州モハーベ砂漠上空で超音速飛行に成功し、民間航空機として初めて音速の壁を突破しました。12回目のテスト飛行でマッハ1.1に到達し、約4分間超音速を維持したそうです。 「Pebbleのスマートウォッチ復活」 Googleは、Fitbit買収で得たPebbleソフトウェアをオープンソース化しました。これにより、誰でもPebble風のスマートウォッチを開発可能になります。オリジナル開発者Eric Migicovsky氏が約10年ぶりにPebble復活を計画しているそうです。 「ミシュランお断りレストラン」 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 【ユカスタポッドキャスト // Podcast by Yuka Studio】 ユカスタポッドキャストは、テックとクリエイティビティがもっと身近になる、トーク番組です。 ニューヨークを拠点に、テック系クリエイターとして活動する大石結花がメインホストとして、テックニュースや、インタビューコンテンツをお届けします。 🌟Youtube: 日本語YouTubeチャンネル 🌟Youtube: 英語YouTubeチャンネル 🌟Community by Yuka Studio (ユカスタコミュニティ): メンバーシップに加入すると、特別なバッジ・絵文字が使えるようになり、メンバー限定のDiscordチャットや、もくもくLIVEに参加できます。 🌟ニュースレター: 月に一度ほど、Yukaのコラムやアップデートがメールで届きます。 🌟 Instagram: Podcastや動画、そのほかのby Yuka Studio 関連の最新情報をお届けします。
