Good Morning from the Promptbox Team!


Hey everyone.

We’re changing up the ā€˜Tool’s section today by removing some of the design element and adding 10 trending tools - and there are some very cool ones today.

Plus we have a bunch of great stories and one of the few Midjourney collections not about ā€˜Gumbo Slice,’ the world’s first AI celebrity.

Have a Great Thursday. Let's get it.

Researchers at Northwestern University developed an AI system that designed a functional walking robot in mere seconds, exemplifying the concept of accelerated evolution. Unlike many of its counterparts that rely on vast datasets and high-power computing, this AI runs on a standard PC and generates designs from scratch. Given the task to "Design a walking robot," it underwent various iterations, transforming a static block into an atypical three-legged form, highlighting its capability for slow and steady movement.

Key Facts:

  • Rapid Creation: Using a common laptop, the AI evolved a walking robot design from an immobile block to a moving entity in just 26 seconds, setting a new pace in robotic design.

  • Novel Designs: This AI system devises entirely original structures, yielding a peculiar yet efficient robot with three legs and a porous structure, devoid of human design biases.

  • Versatile Implications: The potential applications of such AI-conceived designs are extensive, encompassing potential future innovations in areas like crisis-response robots that can sift through rubble to find survivors or nanorobots designed for medical purposes inside the human body.

ā€œWe discovered a very fast AI-driven design algorithm that bypasses the traffic jams of evolution, without falling back on the bias of human designers,ā€ said Northwestern’s Sam Kriegman. ā€œI call this process ā€˜instant evolution.ā€™ā€


Beyond its immediate achievement, this AI breakthrough could redefine how we envision design and innovation. Looking deeper, we see a glimpse into the future of robotics that doesn't necessarily require humans.
