Deep Dive 🔍

• Stability AI audio chief quits over fair-use 🚫
  
  Ed Newton-Rex's departure from Stability AI spotlights a growing industry debate on fair use in AI model training. Newton-Rex argues that there is no fair use and that it is morally wrong to train generative AI models without permission, and hopes that other employees of AI companies will advocate for a change in attitude towards creative humans. 🤝 The US Copyright Office's investigation into these practices further fuels this contentious debate, underscoring the moral and legal complexities in the AI sector. ⚖️
  

• Phi-2: Microsoft's new language model with 'Models as a Service' integration 🌟
  
  Microsoft has launched Phi-2, a breakthrough 2.7 billion-parameter language model, surpassing its predecessor, Phi-1.5, in reasoning and security. Outperforming Meta's Llama-2-7B in key areas, Phi-2, along with Phi-1.5, is now available in the Azure AI Model Catalog. Microsoft also introduces 'Models as a Service' for seamless developer access to cutting-edge AI technology. 🌐

• Meta brings us a step closer to AI-generated movies 📽️
  
  Meta introduced Emu Video, an evolution of their image generation tool, Emu. Emu Video can generate four-second animated clips from captions, images, or photos. 🎬 Emu Video's 512×512, 16-frames-per-second clips demonstrate high fidelity, often indistinguishable from real footage. Emu Video suffers from AI-generated anomalies, such as strange physics and objects fading without logic. The technology faces challenges in depicting action verbs and realistic movements. Meta's integration of Emu Video into Facebook and Instagram prompts fears about the replacement of human artists. 🤔

• Copilot comes to Windows 10 with 22H2 update 🌐
  
  The upcoming Windows 10 version 22H2 update introduces Copilot capabilities, allowing users to interact and seek suggestions. While its functionality on Windows 10 is more restricted compared to Windows 11, this expansion caters to the billion active Windows 10 devices globally. However, some editions like Enterprise and Education won't receive this upgrade initially. Microsoft aims to gradually extend Copilot's availability to more markets. 💻

• Bard chatbot: Google opening up education chatbot for global teens 🌎
  
  Google is broadening the horizons of teens worldwide with its AI tool, Bard. Accessible to teens with their own Google accounts, Bard offers support in English, with plans for more languages. It's a resource for creativity, learning, and problem-solving, covering topics from university applications to math equations. Google ensures safety with features like inappropriate content recognition and promoting information literacy. 🤖

• YouTube's Dream Track: AI music generator collaboration with artists 🤝

  
  YouTube introduces Dream Track in YouTube Shorts, an AI music generator collaborating with artists like Demi Lovato and John Legend. Developed with Google’s DeepMind, it produces original songs using AI-generated artist voices.🎤 Artists and industry leaders emphasize responsible development and balancing digital ecosystem protection. YouTube's new policies ensure creators disclose AI-generated content, aligning with their commitment to responsibly amplify human creativity. 🎶

•  X aligns with EU's Digital Services Act 📝
  
  Formerly Twitter, X has revised its approach in the EU to align with the Digital Services Act. This change permits EU researchers to access X's data for studies addressing systemic risks under the DSA. While this move is praised by EU officials for its compliance, the extent of access for non-EU researchers remains uncertain. X's priority is clear: adherence to EU regulations. 📊 

• Too much demand: OpenAI pauses ChatGPT Plus sign-ups 📈

  
  Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, reports an unprecedented demand for ChatGPT, leading to a temporary halt in new ChatGPT-Plus subscriptions. The platform's web traffic is rebounding strongly, likely aided by the back-to-school season and recent product improvements. The ChatGPT Android app, enhanced with voice capabilities, continues to gain global traction. While the growth trajectory has stabilized, the potential of the new GPT-4 Turbo in driving further growth is yet to be seen. ChatGPT maintains a significant lead in weekly traffic compared to Google Bard and character.ai.
