🗞️ FRESH OFF THE PRESS

AMAZON

Summary: Amazon's CEO reveals all departments are now focusing on generative AI initiatives, suggesting exciting new AI-driven services on the horizon. (source)

Key points:

  • Every Amazon department is engaged in AI initiatives, according to CEO Andy Jassy.

  • He said that AI is embedded in every product/service Amazon builds

  • Alexa might announce new AI-based features at the upcoming Amazon event on September 20th.

Why it Matters: I’m particularly excited to see what updates Alexa and Siri will have in the upcoming updates. Imagine having an AI assistant controlling your devices with intelligence comparable to ChatGPT

INSTAGRAM

Summary: Instagram is working on labeling AI-generated or edited content. Their goal is to boost transparency and accountability within the platform. (source)

Key points:

  • The update aligns with Meta and other tech giants' recent commitment to the White House for responsible AI development, including watermarks for AI-generated content.

  • Misinformation potential of AI-generated content was demonstrated earlier with a viral, AI-altered image of the Pope.

  • Google is also developing a tool to verify if images were AI-generated, launching this summer.

Why it Matters: It’s great to have systems that detect AI generated contents, which are highly spreading in the web, but will Meta succeed in doing that? OpenAI was trying to build a system that detects ChatGPT-generated text but they failed. They failed to detect their AI!

GOOGLE

Summary: Google's Search Generative Experiment (SGE) is stepping up its AI game. Not only does it offer AI-powered results, but now also related images and videos, making searches easier and engaging. (source)

Key Points:

  • Google's SGE now displays images and videos related to your search query.

  • Publication dates are also shown, so you know how fresh the information is.

  • Sign up to test these features via Search Labs

Why It Matters: This update takes Google's AI search to a new level, providing a richer and more dynamic user experience. Getting information from searches will become easier than ever.
