GPT 5 Trademark Filing

You might have heard about the recent news that OpenAI has officially filed for a trademark for GPT5. According to the trademark, it is described as downloadable computer software for the artificial production of human speech and text, downloadable computer software for natural language processing generation understanding and analysis. It is also said to include conversion of audio data files into text and voice and speech recognition.

However, OpenAI themselves have not made any announcements about GPT5 or what they expect to do with it yet. There has been no indicator of when we can expect GPT5. But what we do know is that they have filed for a trademark for it.

In other GPT news, OpenAI has announced that they are adding new updates to improve the chat GPT experience. They are adding prompt examples and suggested replies after you get an output. This is similar to what we have seen in Bing chat, where you get a response and then it suggests some other potential questions or follow-on conversation that you can have.

It is exciting to see what OpenAI has in store for GPT5, and we can’t wait to see how it will improve the AI world.

Chat GPT Updates

If you are a user of Chat GPT, you will be happy to know that OpenAI has announced some updates to improve your experience. These updates include prompt examples, suggested replies, and the ability to upload multiple files.

With the new prompt examples feature, you can get suggestions for potential questions or follow-up conversations after you receive an output. This feature is similar to what we have seen in Bing chat. Additionally, the ability to upload multiple files is a significant upgrade. You can now compare data from two spreadsheets, find correlations between two documents, or even upload three images and tell it to blend these three images into one.

If you are a Code interpreter plus user, you will now stay logged in, so you don’t have to log in every two weeks. They have also added some new keyboard shortcuts that will make your work more efficient. The multi-file upload ability is the most exciting new upgrade in my opinion.

It is worth noting that OpenAI has not made any announcements about GPT5 or what they expect it to do yet. However, they have filed for a trademark for it. We do not know when we can expect GPT5, but the trademark description includes downloadable computer software for the artificial production of human speech and text, natural language processing generation, understanding, and analysis. It will also include the conversion of audio data files into text and voice and speech recognition.

Overall, these updates to Chat GPT are exciting for users, and we look forward to seeing what else OpenAI has in store for us.

A.I.COM Redirect

If you try to visit ai.com now, you’ll be redirected to x.ai instead. It’s unclear why this change occurred, but it’s worth noting that Elon Musk and his company x.ai now own the domain. It’s possible that Musk purchased the domain from OpenAI, the original owner of ai.com, or that OpenAI simply redirected the domain to x.ai for some other reason. Regardless, it’s interesting to see the shifting ownership and control of AI-related domains and companies.

YouTube’s AI-Generated Video Summaries

YouTube has recently started testing AI-generated video summaries to help viewers quickly decide if a video is worth watching. According to YouTube’s help document, they are testing AI auto-generated summaries to make it easier for viewers to read a quick summary about a video and decide whether it’s the right fit for them.

While we don’t know much about the summaries yet, it’s unlikely that they will be in-depth enough to replace actually watching the video. Instead, they are meant to be helpful in making the decision to watch a video.

It will be interesting to see how this feature evolves and if it will be useful for viewers in the long run.

Overflow AI from Stack Overflow:

If you’re a coder, you’re probably familiar with Stack Overflow, the go-to place for getting help with coding. However, since the introduction of AI tools like GitHub co-pilot and chat GPT, Stack Overflow’s traffic has been steadily decreasing. To get the traffic back to their site, Stack Overflow has introduced Overflow AI, a tool that promises to provide generative AI summarized answers based on the combined results of Stack Overflow’s knowledge base of 58 million questions and answers.

With Overflow AI, all the questions and answers that have been put on Stack Overflow over the years will be much more easily searchable. Additionally, Overflow AI promises to cite its sources, meaning wherever it’s pulling code from inside of its database, it’s going to tell you where it came from. This is a significant upgrade for coders who are looking for quick and relevant information.

However, it remains to be seen how all of the contributors to Stack Overflow over the years feel about the fact that their information is now being trained into this AI. As we’ve seen in the AI world so far, there’s a lot of pushback when explicit permission wasn’t given to train on data that other people created. Nonetheless, Overflow AI is a promising tool for coders who are looking for quick and relevant information.

Kickstarter’s Generative AI Project Requirements

If you’re planning on launching a generative AI project on Kickstarter, you’ll need to be aware of new requirements and disclosures. Kickstarter now requires project owners to disclose relevant details on their project pages, including information about how the project owner plans to use the AI content in their work, as well as which components of their project will be wholly original and which elements will be created using AI tools.

Projects involving the development of AI tech tools and software must detail info about the sources of training data the project owner intends to use. This is to ensure that the project owner has explicit permission to train on data that other people created.

Kickstarter’s new requirements are designed to increase transparency and accountability in the development of generative AI projects. By providing more information about how AI content is being used, Kickstarter hopes to ensure that these projects are being developed ethically and responsibly.

It’s important to note that these requirements are not meant to discourage the development of generative AI projects. Rather, they are intended to ensure that these projects are being developed in a way that is respectful of the rights of others and that promotes responsible AI development. If you’re planning on launching a generative AI project on Kickstarter, be sure to carefully review these requirements and ensure that your project is in compliance.

Instagram’s AI Content Labels

If you’re an avid Instagram user, you might have noticed some changes in the way the platform handles content generated by artificial intelligence. Instagram is reportedly working on labels for AI-generated content to make it easier to identify. According to Alessandro Palusi, Instagram is developing a way to label content created or modified by AI.

The labels will help users differentiate between content created by humans and content created by AI. The creator or meta will have the option to claim that the content was made by AI, but meta will also be trying to determine whether something was generated with AI. Most likely, if it was generated with meta AI, meta will be doing its own watermarking of the image.

It’s unclear how Instagram will determine if something was generated with some other AI tool outside of meta’s ecosystem. However, the labels will be helpful in identifying AI-generated content and understanding how it was created.

AudioCraft

As a content creator, you know how important it is to have high-quality audio in your videos. Meta has recently introduced a new generative AI tool called Audio Craft, which makes it incredibly easy to generate high-quality audio and music from text descriptions. This tool is open source and includes music gen, audio gen, and in codec.

With Audio Craft, you can easily generate high-quality audio and music from text descriptions. The tool uses generative AI to create audio that sounds like it was recorded in real-life settings. For example, you can use Audio Craft to generate audio of whistling with wind blowing or sirens and humming engine approaches a pass. You can also use Audio Craft to generate music from text prompts, such as a pop dance track with catchy melodies and upbeat rhythms.

One of the best things about Audio Craft is that it is open source. This means that you can use it for commercial use, modification, distribution, and private use. The license does not seem to have the same limitations as Meta’s llama 2, making it an excellent tool for content creators who want to create high-quality audio for their videos.

Overall, if you’re looking for an easy-to-use tool that can help you generate high-quality audio and music for your videos, Audio Craft is definitely worth checking out. With its intuitive interface and powerful generative AI, it’s a great tool for any content creator who wants to take their videos to the next level.

Alibaba’s Open Source AI Model

If you’re interested in AI, you might have heard that Alibaba has open-sourced their AI model called Quinn 7B. This model has 7 billion parameters and is designed for conversational apps. It’s a direct competitor to Meta’s open-source Llama 2.

Alibaba released their Tong Yi kienwen model in April of this year, which allowed content generation in both English and Chinese. Now, they’re taking it a step further by open-sourcing Quinn 7B and Quinn 7B chat.

This move by Alibaba is significant because it allows developers to use their AI model for their own projects. It also adds to the growing list of open-source AI models, which is great news for the AI community.

If you’re interested in using Quinn 7B, you can access the code on Alibaba’s GitHub page. The license allows for commercial use, modification, distribution, and private use without any limitations.

Overall, Alibaba’s decision to open-source their AI model is a positive step for the AI community. It allows for more collaboration and innovation, which will ultimately benefit everyone.
