🚀Elon Musk Challenges the AI Giants: Plans to Develop a Chatbot to Rival OpenAI's ChatGPT

Hold on to your hats, AI enthusiasts, because Elon Musk is reportedly on a mission to take on OpenAI's high-profile chatbot, ChatGPT! According to sources, the billionaire tech entrepreneur has been in touch with AI researcher Igor Babuschkin, who used to work with Alphabet's DeepMind AI, to create an alternative to ChatGPT.

Now, if you're not familiar with ChatGPT, it's a cutting-edge chatbot that can generate responses to emails, summarize reports, and even answer questions in a conversational and creative tone. But it seems Musk is ready to give it a run for its money with his new project, which is still in the early stages of development.

It's no secret that Musk has a passion for AI and its potential to transform our lives. He co-founded OpenAI in 2015 to keep an eye on AI development, but stepped down as chairman in 2018 due to concerns of a conflict of interest. However, he's not letting that stop him from pursuing his AI dreams, and who knows what kind of revolutionary product could come out of this new project.

So, AI fans, keep your eyes peeled for updates on this exciting new development. Will Musk's team be able to outdo ChatGPT and other competitors like Google's Bard? Only time will tell, but we can't wait to see what they come up with!

🚀 Meta's Mark Zuckerberg Reveals AI Team Working on Developing 'Personas' and Advanced Tools

Meta, the parent company of Facebook, is making a big bet on artificial intelligence (AI) with the creation of a new team dedicated to developing AI tools and "personas" aimed at helping people in various ways. In a post on Monday, CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that the team would work on AI "experiences" with text, images, video, and multi-modal formats across Meta's apps and services, including Messenger, WhatsApp, and Instagram.

Ahmad Al-Dahle, Meta's vice president of AI and machine learning, who previously worked on Apple's special product group, will lead the new AI team. Zuckerberg said the team would focus on "generative AI" to "turbocharge our work in this area." The move comes as Meta faces increasing competition in the generative AI space from companies like Microsoft, Google, and Snapchat.

Meta has also been working on its own AI language generator called LLaMA, and recently launched two AI chatbots, Galactica and Blenderbot. While these chatbots may not have been impressive, Meta's new AI team could help the company improve and incorporate AI features within each of its apps.

As OpenAI's ChatGPT continues to gain popularity, it will be interesting to see how Meta's new AI team develops its own AI tools and personas to stay ahead in the game.

🚀 Snapchat Unleashes AI Chatbot Using OpenAI's Powerful GPT Technology

Snapchat has announced the launch of a new chatbot called "My AI" that uses the latest version of OpenAI's GPT technology, customized for Snapchat users. My AI is an experimental feature available exclusively to subscribers of Snapchat+, the social network's $3.99 monthly subscription service. The chatbot has been designed to have a unique voice and personality that aligns with Snapchat's values of friendship, learning, and fun, and adheres to the app's trust and safety guidelines.

My AI can assist users in various tasks, from answering trivia questions to recommending gift ideas or writing a haiku. Users can customize the chatbot's name and wallpaper for their Chat. However, Snapchat warns that as with all AI-powered chatbots, My AI can be tricked into saying anything. The company assures users that all conversations with My AI will be stored and may be reviewed to improve the product's experience. However, users should not share any secrets or rely on the chatbot for advice.

Snapchat believes that incorporating AI into its messaging platform has the potential to deepen connections among its 750 million monthly users, especially the 75% of 13- to 34-year-olds in over 20 countries. The company acknowledges the importance of safety, particularly for its young user base, and notes that My AI has been designed to avoid harmful or misleading topics and responses.

My AI may also boost Snapchat's paid subscriber numbers, which recently surpassed two million. While AI has become an increasingly popular and trending topic over the past few months, Snapchat hopes that My AI can provide a unique and fun way for its community to interact with AI.
