TRENDING STORY

🤖 USA AI Spending Spree…

A bipartisan group of four senators led by Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is recommending that Congress spend at least $32 billion over the next three years to develop AI and implement safeguards around it.

The senators argue that the U.S. needs to "harness the opportunities and address the risks" of rapidly advancing AI technology.

Their recommendations come after a yearlong review of AI's potential impacts.

📫️ The details:

  • The senators urge emergency spending of $32 billion on AI research and development over three years.

  • They emphasize the need for regulation and incentives to promote AI innovation while mitigating risks.

  • The proposed funding aims to boost U.S. investments in AI and maintain the country's leadership in this field.

🧠 Our thoughts:

The United States is currently a global leader in AI, but China is rapidly catching up, making the race for AI supremacy increasingly competitive.

It makes sense that the US wants to spend $32 billion to maintain its lead in the AI war.

As AI continues to reshape various industries, the geopolitical landscape may shift in favor of the country that can harness this transformative technology most effectively.

 Your Guide To Asset Hacking

AI Asset Hacking is the process of taking images and recreating them using AI tools like Midjourney.

Here’s a quick guide on how this process works:

  1. Collect assets. - Gather all brand-related visuals such as logos, colors, and images to ensure that the AI-generated content aligns with the brand’s identity. This foundational step ensures consistency and recognition in the recreated assets.

  2. Use describe feature with MJ. - Accurately describe the visual assets using the describe feature to help the AI understand and categorize the elements, which is crucial for effectively utilizing these assets in later steps.

  3.  Iterate prompts with GPT. - Use AI to refine and experiment with different textual prompts based on the initial descriptions to guide the generation of new images, enhancing creativity and alignment with specific branding goals.

  4. Combine brand assets + prompts. - Merge the descriptive prompts with the visual brand assets to create specific image requests that the AI can process, ensuring that the outputs are both innovative and on-brand.

  5. Combine brand assets + iterate prompt. - Continuously refine and adjust the combined assets and prompts based on feedback and desired outcomes, which allows for optimization of the AI’s output toward the ideal brand representation.

Additional Steps:

  1. Review and evaluate AI-generated images. - Assess the images created by the AI for quality, brand consistency, and alignment with creative goals. This step is essential to ensure that the assets meet the intended brand standards and campaign objectives.

  2. Implement a feedback loop for continuous improvement. - Establish a mechanism to incorporate feedback from the evaluation step to further refine and enhance the asset creation process. This continuous improvement loop ensures the generation of higher quality and more effective brand assets over time.

These steps create a comprehensive workflow for asset hacking using AI, ensuring the images are brand-consistent and creatively aligned with the brand’s evolving needs.
