Microsoft and OpenAI Breaking Up?
Welcome back, AI’ers.
Did you hear: Microsoft CEO hedges OpenAI bet, launches new AI organization
Microsoft is establishing a new organization, Microsoft AI, to focus on consumer-facing artificial intelligence products, technology, and research.
Led by Mustafa Suleyman, co-founder of DeepMind and Inflection AI, as CEO, the organization aims to accelerate innovation and ensure AI benefits reach everyone responsibly.
This move consolidates various Microsoft AI teams to drive technological advancements under one umbrella.
What’s even more interesting is Microsoft CEO recently said this on OpenAI:
Doesn't matter "if OpenAl disappeared tomorrow."
"We have all the IP rights and all the capability."
"We have the people, we have the compute, we have the data, we have everything."
"We are below them, above them, around them."
Maybe Microsoft is forming a backup plan in case OpenAI somehow vanishes; either way, that last line sounds like a supervillain said it.

✨ GPT-5 Coming This Summer
OpenAI is gearing up to release GPT-5, the successor to its successful GPT-4 AI model, with reports suggesting a summer 2024 rollout.
Anticipation is high for this next-generation AI model, with demonstrations showcasing its superior performance compared to GPT-4 and its ability to tailor itself to specific use cases.
OpenAI is meticulously training and safety-testing GPT-5 to ensure its readiness for public release, potentially marking a pivotal moment for the company in the AI landscape.
Why does this matter?
GPT-5's enhanced capabilities are expected to have far-reaching implications across various industries, influencing how AI is utilized in real-world applications.
OpenAI's strategic approach to incremental updates, as seen with GPT-4.5, highlights a methodical progression towards more powerful and sophisticated AI models.
The potential launch of GPT-5 in 2024 or 2025 underscores the ongoing efforts to develop cutting-edge AI technologies that can revolutionize how we interact with AI systems.

🤖 AI-Ads Are Here
We posted a video on our Twitter of an ad featuring AI avatars acting as influencers. The avatars in the example promote a product, but it looks natural.
It’s scary.
It’s not surprising that AI is being used in this manner.
AI-generated advertisements are on the rise, driven by the cost-effectiveness and efficiency they offer to brands.
This trend, empowered by AI's ability to create multiple ad variations quickly, is reshaping advertising by enabling brands to reallocate resources and optimize campaigns effectively.
According to The Daily Star, "Traditional ad shoots, with their extensive requirements for actors, crew, and logistical arrangements, incur substantial expenses. In contrast, a subscription to AI-based image generation models slashes costs by over 80%, primarily by eliminating the need for elaborate setups and personnel," explained Sabbir Islam, CEO of Wire Digital Multimedia Marketing.
This cost-saving allows brands to reallocate resources toward other business areas, such as product development or customer service.
However, since AI deployment in advertising is very slow and only used by a small fraction of brands, job cuts aren't a worry - at least so far, according to experts.
