An OS For AI, EU Screwing Innovation, AI Audio Is The Next Frontier, and Yet More Legal Woes
AI News To Know
In a week where the Pope released a guide to AI, an AI comedy show fails to crack the DNA of laughter, and AI characters take revenge on scam cold callers.
Yet More AI Legal Woes
OpenAI is facing two class-action lawsuits related to its language bot, ChatGPT.
The lawsuits accuse OpenAI of invading privacy, violating copyright, and causing harm to the public.
One lawsuit claims that ChatGPT was trained on books without the authors' permission, which is a copyright violation. The other lawsuit raises broader concerns about the potential dangers of AI.
These lawsuits may be the first of many legal challenges faced by companies working on AI technologies. The lawsuits seek damages and changes to ChatGPT's functionality. Experts predict that more lawsuits will follow as the legal landscape for AI is still unclear.

EU AI Act Set to Screw Innovation
Businesses and tech companies are criticizing a proposed law in the European Union called the AI Act. They argue that the law has too many restrictions and is too bureaucratic.
They want the EU to have a more hands-off approach to regulating artificial intelligence (AI) because they believe it will make Europe less competitive in AI technology. The law could also lead to major AI innovators leaving Europe.
The AI Act includes bans on using AI for biometric identification, requirements for labeling AI-generated content, and safeguards against AI and illegal content.
The law still needs to be ratified by each EU country to become official.

The Race To Build An OS For AI
Many companies are just starting their journey in harnessing generative AI and face challenges in transforming their processes and systems. They need a new infrastructure to support generative AI applications, which can make autonomous decisions and require coordination.
Intuit's chief data officer likens this infrastructure to an operating system for generative AI. Building such an operating system involves four main layers: data, development, runtime, and user experience.
Other companies are also advancing generative AI through open software frameworks and platforms. Enterprise developers can leverage foundational large language models (LLMs) and customize them for specific tasks. They can also use frameworks to query structured and unstructured data sources and convert them into formats understandable by LLMs.
The future of generative AI lies in building an operating system for it, which will provide a strategic advantage to enterprises.

AI Audio The Next Frontier
Voice.ai, a company that offers real-time voice-changing technology, has raised $6 million in funding.
The company has over 480,000 users and a library of 50,000 voice filters. Its tools are used by gamers, content creators, and others on platforms like TikTok, Zoom, and Discord.
Voice.ai plans to use the funding to hire more talent, develop new software development kits (SDKs) and application programming interfaces (APIs), and expand to new platforms. The company aims to make its affordable voice-modifying technology accessible to consumers and democratize voice AI technology.
The investors believe that Voice.ai has the potential to revolutionize the AI developer community and build a network of developers using its technology.

Next week in Prompt Hackers
This week we met some Robotic Chibi Super Kids, created some Bold Romantic Posters, explored some Mysterious Jungles, created some beautiful Human Computer Icons, and finished off with some Creepy Character Art.
Added to the Text2Text Cookbook were two Personas: Emma Etsy - The Crafting Queen and Stella "Starlight" Adams - The Social Media Influencer. We also added a couple of Prompts: Social Media Influencer - to generate insights on how to grow your online audience and create a following of raving fans; Etsy Off-Platform Marketing - generate recommendations on effective strategies for the off-platform promotion of an Etsy store (should work for any sales store!).
Next week, in addition to more ChatGPT cookbook recipes and ingredients, we will meet some futuristic robots (thanks for the inspiration Ben), generate some drawings of medieval times, airbrush some elves, visit some busy places, and join some idiots at play!
