Hello community member,

Virtually every app/ website you use today has an AI assistant to help you with one task or the other. Google saw this and said "hold my cup". News reaching us is that soon enough, we would have an AI writing assistant integrated into Gmail. Sounds like an outstanding feature, don't you think? This week, Elon musk also had a thing to say about his company and we can't wait to see you immersed in these stories - so, grab a seat, sit back, and indulge. It's time to savor the excitement of what the AI world has served up this week!

Here's your curated dose of the most significant events in the AI ecosystem this week:

1. Google might be introducing AI writing to Gmail soon

2. Elon musk says Tesla should be valued as an AI robotics company, not an automobile company

3. Synthesia’s new update allows AI video avatars to now express emotions

4. Adobe launches new AI image generation model, Firefly Image 3

Google is warming up to launch Gemini AI on Android phones, starting with Gmail's email summarization feature. This was discovered after a user digged into the app's code, revealing a fully functional but hidden gem awaiting a public rollout, possibly at Google's upcoming event in May 2024. Gemini will allow users to summarize emails with a simple tap, easing the burden of lengthy messages. Feedback options are also in place to enhance AI performance. However, past hurdles like image generation biases have led to cautious testing, with Google committed to refining Gemini to avoid any embarrassments. We will keep you updated as Gemini evolves to serve users seamlessly across various Google apps.

Elon Musk sparked up alot of conversation this week leveraging the unused computing power in Tesla vehicles, likening it to Amazon's cloud service, AWS. He envisions tapping into this untapped resource during idle moments to run AI models, potentially distributed globally. While this concept is intriguing, questions arise about compensation and feasibility. Would Tesla pay for this service? The answer remains uncertain. However, exploring this idea requires careful consideration. Experts note challenges such as power source reliance and connectivity issues, particularly for electric vehicles. While the concept of distributed computing is feasible, its practical implementation raises critical questions about energy costs and efficiency. As Elon continues to innovate, the utilization of Tesla's compute power remains an evolving narrative.

Synthesia, an AI startup known for video avatars for businesses, is launching an update to improve emotion, lip tracking, and natural movements in its avatars. This release follows the company's success in creating human-like video avatars, distinct from other generative AI players like OpenAI. Synthesia aims to excel in creating lifelike avatars for business applications such as training and marketing, distinguishing itself in a competitive AI market. Despite challenges like AI misuse concerns, Synthesia remains committed to safe AI usage and has taken steps to address potential issues. With a valuation of $1 billion and a track record of millions of video presentations created, Synthesia's latest would most certainly enhance user experiences and attract more clients, including prominent enterprises like Zoom and the BBC.

Adobe announced its latest AI image generation model, Firefly Image 3, at the Creativity Conference in London. The beta version is now available in Photoshop and the Firefly web app, showcasing significant enhancements in image quality and control. With improved photorealism, including better lighting and detail, Firefly Image 3 offers higher-quality outputs and increased creative flexibility. Some features we took note of include auto-stylisation capabilities, structure reference and style reference for precise control, and an expanded range of styles for illustrations. Adobe also introduced Content Credentials to address AI-generated content concerns, promoting transparency and accountability in content creation. Firefly Image 3 is accessible through the Firefly web app, supporting various Adobe applications and ensuring compliance with copyright and intellectual property rights.
