French DJ and EDM producer David Guetta has recently sparked a major debate in the music industry regarding the use of artificial intelligence, which goes way beyond sampling. In a video he shared on his Youtube channel yesterday, Guetta played a track at one of his sets that utilized an AI software to synthesize Eminem’s voice. Check out the video below first. The video was captioned, “Let me introduce you to… Emin-AI-em,” showing Guetta hyping up the crowd with an unreleased track that features a replica of Eminem’s voice. The DJ was later interviewed in the video, where he explained…

ChatGPT is the most mind-blowing chatbot to date, having the ability to answer any question and perform any task in a way that makes you believe it’s a genius all-knowing supercomputer. While ChatGPT isn’t really a panacea for life’s woes, it can make yours a lot easier thanks to the myriad of “boring”, repetitive, or inconvenient tasks it can do in your stead. There is a lot of overblown hype on ChatGPT right now, so this post aims to be vividly grounded in reality. All of the tasks listed here have been proven and tested by me to some degree…

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, recently discussed the company’s broad plans for artificial intelligence in 2023, although he couldn’t help but mix in metaverse initiatives despite not being asked. According to Zuckerberg, Meta will be launching multiple generative AI products this year, but they need to tackle an efficiency problem first. “I’d say the two biggest themes [we’ll ] focus on for this year is efficiency… and then [releasing] generative AI work.” Mark Zuckerberg He further stated that Facebook has several work streams across its products, utilizing large language and diffusion models to generate images, videos, avatars, 3D assets, and…

OpenAI, the driving force behind the highly acclaimed AI chatbot ChatGPT, has made a strategic (and secrete) move by recruiting a vast number of international contractors to train its AI platforms in the field of software engineering. According to a recent report by Semafor, these contractors, sourced from various regions such as Eastern Europe and Central America over the past six months, have been entrusted with creating valuable data to educate OpenAI’s models so they can master basic software engineering tasks. Codex Trained by Int’l Software Engineers This significant step, taken by one of 2022’s most notable unicorn startups, is…

The next generation of AI assistance could be a fusion of ChatGPT and Wolfram Alpha. Imagine a platform having the ability to generate human-like responses as ChatGPT, but also having access to the “computational superpower” of Wolfram Alpha, allowing you to perform precise calculations beyond human capabilities. ChatGPT has been the talk of the town for a while thanks to its ability to generate seemingly correct answers, from essays to job interview simulations, to blog content, etc. But as we use it more, we begin to see its limitations. That’s where Wolfram Alpha comes in. As Stephen Wolfram, the founder…

Midjourney is an AI tool that leads to the door of limitless creativity, transforming human imagination into visual art. Only this time, we’ll unlock it not with words but with IMAGES. Yes, you’ve read that right! An image can be used as a prompt on Midjourney, serving as a reference to the art it will generate. All you have to do is combine them with different photos, texts, and other elements; you name it. You can even get more creative outputs with a bit of thinking outside the box. Don’t worry; it’ll be an easy task. The 3D photorealistic version…

OpenAI, one of the world’s leading artificial intelligence research companies, released a report yesterday warning of the dangers of AI-enabled influence operations, or disinformation campaigns. The study was conducted in partnership with Georgetown University’s Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET) and the Stanford Internet Observatory, suggesting that as language models improve, they will become formidable tools for spreading propaganda and disinformation. With the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the potential global ramifications at stake, it is of paramount importance to develop measures to prevent the misuse of advanced AI language models. The potential for a state like…

Solana Mobile, Solana’s mobile technology arm, is set to release a new type of smartphone known as Saga, along with the Solana Mobile Stack (SMS), in early 2023.
