Deep Dive 🔍

• Meta eyes AI subscription model 💸
  
  Meta is gearing up to join the AI subscription trend alongside Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI! They're developing a premium version of their AI assistant, likely with a monthly fee. Besides this, Meta's creating AI agents for coding help and ad management. Ahmad Al-Dahle, VP of generative AI, dubs this "consumer cloud." With $40 billion invested in AI this year, Meta aims to monetize AI tools, potentially transforming how we use their platforms. 📱
  
  

• Cohere introduces multilingual LLMs 💡
  
  Cohere's C4AI launched Aya 23, a cutting-edge multilingual LLM family with open weights, supporting 23 languages. Aya 23 includes an 8B parameter model for efficiency and a 35B parameter model based on Command R architecture. Building on Aya 101, Aya 23 outperforms its predecessor and rivals like Google’s Gemma and Mistral. This democratization of top-tier AI models ensures global access to AI advancements. 🌍
  

  

  
  

• Spotify's AI DJ to go bilingual with Spanish 🎤
  
  Spotify is working on a Spanish-speaking AI DJ, expanding its personalized music feature. Tech expert Chris Messina found code references to "DJ Livi," indicating language switch capabilities and availability in Mexico. This marks the first language expansion since DJ X's global English launch. Spotify confirmed tests but shared no further details. With Spanish widely spoken globally and in the U.S., this feature could cater to a significant demographic. 🎧
  
  

• OpenAI reverses controversial policy 🔄
  
  OpenAI has reversed its decision requiring former employees to sign a non-disparagement agreement to retain vested equity. An internal memo confirms that vested equity will be preserved regardless of any agreement. OpenAI is updating its departure process, removing nondisparagement clauses, and releasing former employees from existing obligations.
  
  

  

• Mistral 7B enhanced with function calling 🆕
  
  Mistral unveils an upgraded version of its 7B Mini language model, Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3, optimized for instruction tasks with advanced tokenization and function calling. Developers can interact via the mistral_inference Python package and the mistral-chat CLI tool. The model is also compatible with the Hugging Face Transformers library. Notably, it lacks moderation mechanisms and showcases the customizability of the 7B base model. 💻

• OpenAI partners with News Corp while regulators sleep on its media strategy 📰
  
  OpenAI has entered a long-term partnership with News Corp, gaining access to their current and archived news content to improve AI products and user queries. A leaked deck for the "Preferred Publisher Program" shows OpenAI's discretion in defining quality journalism without clear selection criteria. This could lead to favored media and marginalized smaller publishers, while politicians overlook the potential concentration of media power. 📚

  
  
  

• China and Cambodia use robot dogs in military drills 🐕‍🦺
  
  China and Cambodia incorporated robot dogs with machine guns in the Golden Dragon exercise, a 15-day anti-terrorism training mission. Concerns about weaponized robots spark calls for an international ban, though companies like Spot Mini pledge not to arm their robots. Ethical debates around autonomous drones and robot dogs continue, despite US military investments. China funded Cambodia's largest military exercise and renovated the Ream naval base, raising geopolitical concerns. 🐕🤖
