Deep Dive 🔍

• OpenAI’s store for GPTs will launch next week 🚀
  
  Next week marks the debut of OpenAI's GPT Store, an innovative platform enabling users to distribute and monetize their own AI agents, designed with the GPT-4 language model. The initial rollout was pushed from November, the service is launching exclusively for ChatGPT Plus and enterprise members. Details on creator compensation linked to AI popularity remain undisclosed, yet this initiative represents a significant stride towards user-centric, commercially successful AI applications. Amidst recent intense activity, OpenAI is forging ahead with this bold endeavor.

• Bard Advanced could be Google's answer to ChatGPT-4 💡
  
  Google is rumored to be crafting "Bard Advanced," an upgraded version of its Bard AI, supercharged by the Gemini Ultra language model. Available exclusively to Google One subscribers, this advanced AI excels in complex math and logic. Potential new features include "Motoko" for custom bot design, a unique tool to enhance user queries, a "Gallery" for exploring Bard's capabilities, and a "tasks" section for tracking longer activities. However, these features are still awaiting official confirmation.

• OpenAI, Apple face publisher discontent over lower-than-expected AI training deals 📈
  
  Content licensing discussions between OpenAI, Apple, and news publishers are ongoing to train AI systems, yet the deals are smaller than the industry anticipated, with some as low as $1-5 million yearly. This has led to dissatisfaction among publishers. The sector is closely monitoring the New York Times' lawsuit against OpenAI for further direction. With AI companies eager to acquire unique data and show solidarity with creators, an increase in legal actions from publishers seems probable.

• AI Copilot key is coming to the new Microsoft keyboard ⌨️
  
  Microsoft is revolutionizing PC keyboards in 2024 with the addition of a Copilot key, a move aimed at making 2024 the “year of the AI PC.” This new key is designed to streamline user engagement with AI-powered applications and tools, demonstrating Microsoft's commitment to improving AI's ease of use and functionality in personal computing.

• Intel spins out a new enterprise-focused GenAI software company Articul8 AI 📊
  
  In a strategic move by CEO Pat Gelsinger, Intel is introducing Articul8 AI, an AI firm operating independently from its primary business. In partnership with Boston Consulting Group, Articul8 AI emerges from Intel's generative AI technology for processing text and visuals. The venture, led by former Intel VP Arun Subramaniyan, focuses on data privacy and efficient AI implementation. Although financials are confidential, backers include DigitalBridge Group, Fin Capital, and more. This spinout is consistent with Intel's approach of external funding for its divisions, similar to its actions with Mobileye and the impending IPO of its programmable chip unit.

• CES 2024: The epicenter of AI innovation and consumer tech 🚀
  
  CES 2024, poised to take place in Las Vegas, is set to emphasize artificial intelligence, drawing an impressive crowd of over 130,000 and 4,000 companies. Expect Nvidia's AI content creation tools, LG's latest AI-equipped OLED TVs, and Samsung's AI-driven home appliances. Sony's tech in film and gaming and Honda and Hyundai's new EV and eVTOL updates will also be featured. The conference will feature insights from leading CEOs in retail, health, and tech, including those from Intel, Qualcomm, and Snap.
  
  

• Mozilla broadens horizons with AI and Firefox evolution 💻
  

  Mozilla is expanding beyond Firefox, focusing on startup investments and its new venture, Mozilla.ai, dedicated to open source and trustworthy AI. Their AI strategy involves enhancing open source large language models with privacy and affordability. Mozilla emphasizes transparency and freedom in software development, aiming to enrich internet accessibility through AI. They plan to integrate AI into Firefox, enhancing the browsing experience and adding 450+ new extensions to their Android browser.

  
  

• Google outlines new methods for training robots with video and large language models 🤖
  
  The year 2024 is set to mark remarkable progress in generative AI and robotics. Google's DeepMind Robotics team is leading the charge in this field. Their AutoRT system, which utilizes large foundational models, enhances situational awareness and enables collaborative robot fleets. Additionally, the RT-Trajectory system, incorporating video input for robotic learning, has doubled the success of traditional training methods.

• AI-powered search engine Perplexity AI, now valued at $520M, raises $73.6M 📈
  
  In a remarkable achievement, AI startup Perplexity has raised $73.6 million, achieving a $520 million valuation. Attracting high-profile investors like Jeff Bezos and Susan Wojcicki, the company's innovative answer engine has quickly captivated a user base of 10 million monthly users. Its growth trajectory is striking, with a leap from 2.2 million to 53 million website and app visits in under a year, positioning it as a strong contender to Google's SGE.
