Microsoft has launched Magma, a new generative AI (genAI) model that can be used to control everything from software to robots. The company says Magma is the first such model that can act on its own based on multimodal data such as texts, images, and video.
It can, for example, use an interface or handle physical objects, Ars Technica reports.
Parts of the code for Magma will be posted on Guthub next week, allowing researchers to test and build on the it.
