🚀 François Chollet's New AI Adventure: Ndea Lab!

François Chollet (a.k.a. the AI wizard behind Keras) 🧙‍♂️ has teamed up with Zapier’s Mike Knoop 🛠️ to launch Ndea, a shiny new AGI lab aiming to crack the ultimate AI code! 🧩

What’s the deal? 🤔

• Deep Learning + Program Synthesis = 🤖🧠
  They’re ditching the “big data, bigger GPUs” vibe for something more efficient—AI that learns like humans (a little faster, we hope).

• Think Big
  From curing diseases 🧬💊 to solving mysteries nobody’s thought of yet, Ndea is basically building a science factory 🏭 for breakthroughs.

• Bye-Bye Big Data Limits
  Current AI is hungry for data 🍔📚. Ndea? They’re cooking up an AI that can learn smarter, not harder.

Bonus Points 🏆

Chollet also started the ARC Prize Foundation 🏅, which makes benchmarks to test if AI is actually as smart as humans.

Why it’s Spicy 🌶️

Chollet is a big deal in AI, and now he’s bringing fresh ideas to the AGI party 🎉.
With Ndea, Ilya Sutskever’s SSI, and other AI geniuses in the mix 🧠👩‍💻👨‍💻, the race to AGI could have some wild surprises ahead! 🚀✨
