OpenAI strikes search deal with Condé Nast

OpenAI has struck a deal with Condé Nast to integrate ChatGPT into the media giant's search functions, marking a significant step in the AI company's expansion into the search market.

The partnership will allow Condé Nast's brands, such as Vogue, GQ, and The New Yorker, to offer AI-powered search capabilities to their readers.
OpenAI aims to showcase the potential of ChatGPT in enhancing the search experience, particularly in niche domains like fashion, culture, and journalism.
This move positions OpenAI as a potential competitor to established search engines like Google and Bing.

Ideogram has launched version 2 of its AI image generation model, offering enhanced customization, photorealism, and design capabilities that rival industry leaders like Midjourney. With an improved text rendering engine, prompt adherence, and new features like custom color schemes and the "design" style, Ideogram v2 delivers stunning AI-generated images across various domains.

Ideogram v2 boasts significant upgrades, including accurate text rendering with customizable fonts and colors, as well as improved prompt adherence.
The new "design" style creates flat, drawn images that are perfect for creating fictional product designs, blueprints, and marketing materials.
While facial rendering still needs improvement, especially for older faces, Ideogram v2 competes head-on with Midjourney in multiple areas and offers design creation capabilities on par with manual tools like Canva and Illustrator.

A viral Instagram meme invites users to have ChatGPT roast their feeds, with over 310,000 people participating so far. The trend involves submitting screenshots of your Instagram profile to ChatGPT and asking it to humorously critique your posts in one paragraph.

Users download the ChatGPT app, submit screenshots of their Instagram with the prompt "roast my Instagram feed in one paragraph", and receive witty, personalized insults about their posts.
The challenge uses an Instagram story template that allows easy sharing and participation, described by some as a new form of "chain mail".
ChatGPT's roasts include remarks like "trying too hard to be spontaneous", "generic dude at a party", "LinkedIn of profiles", "like a midlife crisis", and "a chaotic scrapbook".
