Anthropic's Ambitions in Robotics Examined

**SPEAKER_1** (0:00)
Samsung held acquisition talks with Physical Intelligence, the robotics company, and this is making the OpenAI robotics push a little bit more complicated. Meta has launched something called Content Seal AI Watermarking. This is three years after they promised to put AI labels on content. Synthesia launched roleplay sessions. Their goal is to let employees talk with AI to improve their conversations in a bunch of different areas, and they get judged on it. Samsung is in talks to back Mistral at a 20 billion euro valuation. NextEra, Duke and 200 other utility companies signed Trump's AI Electricity Pledge. Last week, I just started running my first ever Facebook ad campaign for my startup AI Box.AI, which up until now has grown completely organically. We're ready to invest a little bit into paid marketing. The top performing ad I wanted to tell you about because I thought it was pretty funny. It's basically, it looks like a news clip. It's like says Tech Alert, and it's me in the kind of big banner image looking shocked. And there's like in the top corner, there's like a zoom in on like an image and camera lens. And the headline on it says, now Claude makes images, no extra apps needed. And the caption on it says, get Claude to generate images, every top image model right inside the chat, no new apps, no API keys. Anyways, I thought it was funny. This is basically, I've tried 77 different ad types and styles and variations, and that is the winner of 77 So I figured if I was gonna tell you guys about the new MCP on AI Box that let's you generate 80 different AI models inside of Claude, I was gonna just tell you guys the top performing Facebook ad. And yeah, it's super cool. I've been using it all week. Anytime that you want to generate an image inside of Claude, you could just say Claude generated an image of XYZ, and you just basically put in the prompt that you give to ChatGPT or any other image generator, and it will pull the image straight into Claude. Claude can then go use it. The thing that I mostly am using it for, work number one, Facebook ads, because I've been creating 77 of them this week. Also though, I've done it with a bunch of different websites, where I'm like, hey, I generate this website, and we all know what a Claude website looks like. It's pretty generic. And so I'll say, hey, generate custom graphics for each section of this website. Sometimes I'll even say, hey, go generate, I'll take a screenshot of what the website looks like, and I'm like, regenerate this website, an image of this website where the design looks a lot better, and it will use an image generator to kind of fill it out and make custom graphics look better. And then I'll say, hey, now go and take each of the little custom graphics in this image and generate an image for each of those and embed it into the website. This has basically turned my websites and apps that I've done from looking super basic and generic to looking super customizable or custom, right? So anyways, very cool use case. If you want to check it out, it's aibox.ai.
I'll leave a link in the description. Speaking of Cloud and Anthropic, Anthropic held acquisition talks with Physical Intelligence this spring. It is an $11 billion robotics startup. And the deal didn't actually close, but both Anthropic and OpenAI are now really racing to try and build robotic capabilities because they're both going for the new big IPO. They're both going to debut on the stock market later this year. And robotics is such a hot area. It's kind of interesting. SpaceX went the space datacenter route, which Sam Altman says is a scam. Elon Musk says it's going to happen. But whatever way you want to cut it, it was a very novel, very new kind of competitive advantage that SpaceX had.
OpenAI and Anthropic, I think both want to get into something physical. OpenAI has done a lot with physical datacenters. I think that's going to bode really well for them. But I think both of them want to get into robotics, which is kind of the new phase of AI, where we're going to have robots that have AI embedded into their brains. One thing I wanted to clarify is that while physical intelligence is a quote unquote robotics company, they don't have robots. They've raised a billion dollars and they make a very popular AI model that's used for controlling a lot of robots. It's used in academic research. It's called Pi 0.5 and that's, you know, the symbol Pi.
