Summary:
MAICON 2023 was an incredible event that brought together over 700 marketers and business leaders to learn and grow together. We’ll recap the highlights of the event, discuss The Atlantic’s story on Sam Altman, explore McKinsey’s report on generative AI and the future of work, and cover other AI news.
The Atlantic’s article dives deep into Sam Altman and the history and future of openai. It covers how openai has evolved from struggling to develop basic AI models to the creation of GPT-4, which Altman describes as an "alien intelligence." It’s a must-read for anyone interested in the progress and potential of OpenAI.
McKinsey’s report on generative AI and the future of work forecasts the impact of AI on employment in the U.S. It predicts that by 2030, up to 30% of hours currently worked in the U.S. economy could be automated, driven by generative AI. However, the report also highlights that generative AI has the potential to enhance the work of professionals in STEM, creative, and business fields rather than eliminating jobs.
Sam Altman has launched Worldcoin, a cryptocurrency project aimed at distributing universal basic income (UBI) to people worldwide. Additionally, publishers are increasingly demanding billions of dollars, rather than millions, from AI companies that use their content. Netflix is hiring for a new AI-focused role, potentially with a starting salary of up to $900,000, and Elon Musk may face trademark issues with his use of "X" in various ventures.
Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Anthropic have jointly launched the Frontier Model Forum, an initiative aimed at addressing the risks and benefits of large-scale language models like GPT-3. Microsoft’s Copilot, an AI-powered coding tool, might face delays until 2024 due to concerns around the laws and regulations of AI. Cohere has introduced Coral, a new tool that allows developers to integrate natural language processing models into their applications.
On the tech front, iPhone has introduced a new Rewind feature that allows users to create personalized photo collections. Additionally, AWS has expanded its Amazon Bedrock service, which simplifies the deployment and management of on-premises workloads, facilitating the adoption of AI in organizations.
