📔 Case Study: Empowered Slack Collaborative Workspaces

Slack, the globally popular communication platform, is where work discussions, decisions, and delegation occur for millions. While there’s currently a waitlist, the integration of ChatGPT, will reinvent the way we work by providing real-time support for complex problem-solving and decision-making.

In an environment like Slack where professionals grapple with information overload and rapid decision-making, ChatGPT proves invaluable. It delivers instant conversation summaries, provides efficient research tools, and lends support in drafting content, improving productivity across the board.

🤖 This week in AI

• Google has introduced new features to its AI-powered search experience, including AI image generation and alternate draft writing. Users can now generate images based on prompts and export their writing to Google Workspace apps.

• Meta has developed an AI system that can decode visual representations in the brain, using magnetoencephalography (MEG) to capture brain activity and reconstruct how images are perceived.

• Amazon is launching the Sequoia robotics system in its warehouses, using AI to enhance efficiency and safety. It improves product retrieval speed by 75% and order fulfillment by 25%, while eliminating the need for reaching high shelves.

• New research by Klick Labs finds that artificial intelligence can analyze vocal recordings to detect Type 2 diabetes with around 90% accuracy. Klick Labs plans to expand the study to look for pre-diabetes, hypertension, and more.

• IBM has announced an expansion of its partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to provide generative AI solutions and services to clients. IBM Consulting aims to train 10,000 consultants on AWS generative AI services by the end of 2024.

• NVIDIA is expanding its Jetson platform with generative AI models and cloud-native APIs for robotics and real-time tracking. This will accelerate AI development and deployment in various applications.

• Researchers have successfully used AI to extract the first legible word from an ancient scroll destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD79. The word found was "πορφύραc", meaning "purple".

• Rapper Pras Michel's lawyers have requested a new trial, claiming that his former attorney used generative AI to craft closing arguments, resulting in a mishandled defense. Michel was convicted of 10 federal charges.

• A group of writers have filed a lawsuit in New York federal court, accusing Meta and AI research group EleutherAI of copyright infringement. The authors claim that the companies used their books without permission to train their AI systems.

• Music publishers Universal Music, ABKCO and Concord Publishing sued artificial intelligence company Anthropic in Tennessee federal court, accusing it of misusing an "innumerable" amount of copyrighted song lyrics to train its chatbot Claude.

• YouTube is developing an AI tool for creators to use popular artists' voices in their videos, but negotiations with major labels are delaying the beta release. AI training, artist consent, and monetization are the main discussion points.

That was all.
