The Importance of Spatial Intelligence

Visual spatial intelligence is a fundamental cognitive capability, akin to language. We now have the necessary ingredients to unlock this powerful form of intelligence - advanced computing power, deeper data understanding, and improved algorithms. This presents a unique opportunity to focus on and unleash the potential of spatial intelligence.

Spatial intelligence is the ability of machines to perceive, reason, and act within 3D space and time. It involves understanding how objects and events are positioned in 3D space, and how interactions in the world can affect their positions over time. Unlocking this capability could lead to transformative experiences, where we move beyond flat images or video clips and instead interact with fully simulated, vibrant 3D worlds.

Part 2/2:

The arc of intelligence, from animals to humans, has enabled the development of civilization through the ability to move around the world and interact with it. Translating this fundamental cognitive capability into a technological form, by imbuing machines with true 3D awareness, is of critical importance. It represents a floodgate of possible applications, from enhanced virtual and augmented reality experiences to more intelligent robotics and autonomous systems.

By prioritizing the development of spatial intelligence, we have the chance to unlock a new frontier of technological progress and human-machine interaction. The time is right to make a concerted effort in this direction, leveraging the powerful tools and insights we now possess.

they said they've got compute that's something I barely understand. I thought compute was a major issue as to why these AI platforms allegedly hit a wall. What exactly is the compute they talk about
