MediaTek introduced direct successors to last year’s Dimensity 7400 and 7400X chipsets. These do not offer a generational upgrade but a refresh. Even their names imply this strongly – Dimensity 7450 and Dimensity 7450X. There’s no CPU upgrade as both chipsets employ the same octa-core setup that consists of 4x Cortex-A78 cores ticking at 2.6 GHz and 4x Cortex-A55 cores running at 2.0 GHz. The GPU is also still Mali-G615 MC2. MediaTek highlights an improvement in AI power. It’s up by 7%, and the company says it’s particularly noticeable in photography-related AI tasks. Connectivity is the main upgrade in the…

David Silver gave the world its very first glimpse of superintelligence.In 2016, an AI program he developed at Google DeepMind, AlphaGo, taught itself to play the famously difficult game of Go with a kind of mastery that went far beyond mimicry.Silver has since founded his own company, Ineffable Intelligence, that aims to build more general forms of AI superintelligence. The company will do this, Silver says, by focusing on reinforcement learning, which involves AI models learning new capabilities through trial and error. The vision is to create “superlearners” that go beyond human intelligence in many domains.This approach stands in contrast…
