Ultra Instinct | Eric Jang
There is a blue ocean of opportunity for AI systems that observe and act at a higher frequency than what most chatbots are capable of today. Visible light occupies a small sliver of the electromagnetic spectrum, which spans radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Though invisible to the human eye, these other bands are very real and very useful. Humans use all wavelengths in everyday imaging and communication technologies. Birds and insects can see infrared and ultraviolet radiation, and cat olfactory bulbs can even sense X-rays. An analogous “frequency spectrum” can be defined for intelligent decision making. Some decision loops happen slowly – what projects should I pursue at work? Other decisions happen more quickly – what should I have for lunch? Others more quickly still – oh shit, I need to swerve my car or I am going to get into an accident! Like the visible part of the EM spectra, there are decisions that happen at such slow speeds
