We have 16 generative AI news stories from the first two weeks in February. The evolution of assistants topped the news with ChatGPT, Gemini (aka Google Bard), and Hugging Chat. We break that down in depth and how memory and how generative AI personal assistants are attempting to fill in the gaps where their predecessors fell short. There is more funding news, and a number of new products from Slack, AirBnB, and Otter. We talk about smart glasses, a new product in the category that is not from Apple, and the unglorious history of the category. And, we also do a breakdown of the new USPTO guidelines on AI-assistant patent applications.

Generative AI News Rundown - Taylor Swift + Biden Deepfakes, Azure Growth, Indian LLM, Yelp, Shopify, Etsy and More - Voicebot Podcast 371

We have sixteen generative AI news stories again for you this week on the Generative AI News Rundown (GAIN). Watch the video discussion above or click the links below to read the news. ChatGPT went to college this week as Arizona State University announced a partnership with OpenAI, while Washington State adopts new generative AI guidelines encouraging public school systems to “embrace AI.” Those two stories reflect a very different attitude from what the rise of generative AI faced in education circles in early 2023. Beyond that, we have a spotlight on Google relating to a new study showing a decline in search results quality and a thesis from Michael Spencer at <a class="_mention_1qvs5_1" href= "https://open.substack.com/pub/aisupremacy" target="_blank" rel= "noopener" data-attrs= "{"name":"AI Supremacy ","id":396235,"type":"pub","url":"https://open.substack.com/pub/aisupremacy?utm_source=mentions","uuid":"aad22dc2-d3f3-49c7-bd96-bc70c5df7809"}" data-component-name="MentionPub">AI Supremacy</a> about the company’s last moonshot attempt. Plus, the U.S. FTC is conducting an inquiry into generative AI competition, we have some new funding announcements, and a few product updates. Enjoy!
