Henry Minsky, son of AI pioneer Marvin Minsky, co-founded Leela AI, an MIT-connected startup using novel visual intelligence to optimize manufacturing production lines through video analysis.
Combined with the growing trend of multimodality, or models that combine language, image, and other types of capabilities, we may see a trend of AI models operating more like a committee of different components rather than a monolithic block. This approach actually has many conceptual similarities to a set of interesting ideas described by Marvin Minsky and Seymour Paypert from the early days of AI.
