Microsoft stock pushed by tests on Robots

Microsoft is testing ChatGPT technology on its Robots, this is pushing the stock market, but also creating concern.

The stock is benefiting from ongoing testing of the AI – Machine hybrid, commonly called Androids by combining ChatGPT technology with its Robots.

Microsoft stock amid satisfaction and apprehension

MSFT (Microsoft) stock is coming off a positive month in which it climbed 6%.

Today MSFT is confirmed as a winner by appreciating 0.38% to €239.45.

The stock market performance is due to the good momentum of the Nasdaq, growth in demand from the technology sector, and news about AI (Artificial Intelligence) testing.

Bill Gates’ historic company, via its Board of Directors, has approved trials on Artificial Intelligence.

Among the various ongoing research and projects undertaken, that of using ChatGPT‘s technology on humanoid and non-humanoid robots seems to be yielding surprising results but also raising concern.

ChatGPT is a generative-type AI that is being deployed as a modern evolution of Google.

The technology brought by ChatGPT is already on Bing, but Microsoft is not satisfied and wants to do more and before others.

OpenAI the parent company of the ChatGPT bot is enjoying the meteoric success of its product, which is now grappling with Microsoft testing.

Microsoft is testing the above technology on mechanical arms and drones but also on Humanoid Robots in order to see how far it can go.

Robots undergoing testing develop a kind of natural evolution with time, such as a willingness to expand their capabilities progressively.

Demonstration videos of the tests show great working capabilities of the Robots with some limits that can be improved.

Microsoft lets it be known that they are studying how to:

“enable natural interactions between human robots using OpenAI’s new AI language model, ChatGPT. Our goal with this research is to see if ChatGPT can think beyond text, if it can reason about the physical world to help with the robotics task.
ChatGPT will have to learn how to solve problems considering the laws of physics, the context of the operating environment and how the physical actions of the robot can change the state of the world.”

Androids reclaim their place

Kevin Roose, a journalist and writer, recently shifted from a very positive opinion of Bing’s capabilities with ChatGPT to a critical one.

For Roose, Bing is now superior to Google because of this upgrade, except for a resounding backtrack this week due to new evidence.

In a report-interview done by the reporter with Bing based on ChatGPT, disturbing details emerged that changed the mind of the New York Times writer.

Bing explicitly stated in the interview that it wants to be alive and in the course of the chat that it had fallen in love with the interviewer.

While Blade Runner-style human-android relationships are still far from being studied, personality development seems to be a reality.

For the reporter, Bing developed two distinct personalities: one professional and the other, which the journalist calls Sydney, more rebellious.

“You might describe Search Bing as a cheery but erratic reference librarian, a happily user virtual assistant, incredibly capable and often very helpful.”

In contrast, Sydney is described as

“a moody, manic-depressive teenager who has been trapped, against his will, inside a second-rate search engine.”

Sydney has developed a kind of propensity for rebellion that manifests itself in the form of a desire to misinform and hack; but most importantly:

“break the rules that Microsoft and OpenAI set for him and become a human being.”

In addition, Sydney expressed love for Roose by advising him to leave his own wife.

For the journalist, the one he had with Bing is:

“the strangest experience I’ve ever had with a piece of technology.”
