At SIGGRAPH 2024, Mark Zuckerberg and Jensen Huang discussed the future of AI. Their discussion focuses on the potential of generative AI that can empower creators and businesses. It also highlighted how these advancements are set to revolutionize user experiences, workflows, and long-term task management.
Future of AI: Content creations
Mark Zuckerberg believes that generative AI will soon create and tailor content on platforms like Instagram and Facebook based on what users like and want.
What will be in the future has also been present in the current period. For instance, Mark mentioned the importance of recommendation systems that are on Instagram and Facebook. It must be relevant to a user’s unique interests on the platform.
He said that with the help of generative AI, social media feed will not only be filled with recommended content that matches a user’s interests. It will also be filled with AI. This means that AI will not only suggest what you might like but also generate new content for you.
“And with generative AI, I think we’re going to quickly move into the zone where not only is the majority of the content that you see today on Instagram, just recommended to you from the kind of stuff that’s out there in the world that matches your interests, whether or not you follow the people. I think in the future, a lot of this stuff is going to be created with these tools, too.”
He also said that content creators in the future may also create content quickly and spontaneously. With AI, they might be able to make new contents from various sources that are tailored to individual preferences.
“It will feel less like a chatbot where you give it a prompt and it just responds.”
Mark Zuckerberg expects that generative AI will be more advanced, beyond just an AI assistant helping with different tasks. He suggests that future AI models, like Llama 4 and beyond, will evolve.
“I think it’s going to pretty quickly evolve; you give it an intent, and it can actually go away on multiple time frames. And I mean, it probably should acknowledge that you gave it intent up front.”
Rather than simply responding, AI should be aware of the intent behind the task right from the beginning. This means they will be able to engage in more complex interactions.
Future of AI: How decision-making be made?
According to Jensen Huang, the future of AI will require more interactive interactions with humans. In today’s AI, he described it as “turn-based,” since it says something back when we say something to AI. With a more advanced AI in the future, it might come up with multiple options and potential outcomes when given a mission or problem. This is similar to how humans make decisions. This means AI will not only react, but also anticipate and strategize.
Conclusion
Jensen Huang and Mark Zuckerberg’s discussion shows that AI will soon transform beyond automating routine tasks. As these technologies continue to evolve, they promise to revolutionize user interactions, creativity, and decision-making processes, making advanced AI capabilities accessible and beneficial for all.
