[1/2] 3D printed clouds and figurines are seen in front of the Alibaba Cloud service logo in this illustration taken February 8, 2022. “Today, Alibaba Cloud has launched the first training and deployment solution for the entire Llama2 series in China, welcoming all developers to create customised large models on Alibaba Cloud,” Alibaba Cloud said in a statement on Tuesday published on its WeChat account. The U.S. has been actively looking to restrict Chinese companies' access to many U.S.-developed technologies related to AI, particularly in the area of AI semiconductors. Alibaba Cloud did not respond to a request for comment. Alibaba and its peers such as Tencent Holdings (0700.HK) have been aggressively developing their own AI models in recent months.

A journalist breaks down the prompts he uses to identify errors Google Bard introduces. They include telling the bot to list the facts it relied on or to explain its thinking step-by-step. No matter how specific your prompts are, it will occasionally cite made-up sources and introduce outright errors. By using a few carefully honed prompts, I can identify and deal with any inaccuracies at a glance. Sure, I still need to manually verify whatever Bard spits out, but these four prompts help me fact-check quickly, saving me time by making the artificial intelligence do the heavy lifting.

Apple is reportedly working on new artificial-intelligence tools, Bloomberg first reported. Some people at the company are dubbing the new chatbot "Apple GPT," Bloomberg said. Apple has finished working on a foundation for its large language models — the systems that power conversational AI tech — that it calls "Ajax," Bloomberg reported. It will affect every product and every service that we have," Apple CEO Cook said during a February earnings call. So far, Apple has integrated AI into features like "fall detection" found on some Apple Watch Models, and "crash detection" on specific Apple Devices — tools Cook has said are keeping people safe.

Here's the latest AI developments at Salesforce, Apple and Microsoft — along with our take on the news. A generative AI experience built into Apple devices, however, would be an entirely new feature for users. Apple's smart assistant Siri would be the natural place to implement generative AI within the Apple ecosystem. The company promotes both generative AI tools as a way to improve productivity . We've long believed this to be true – and that's why we greeted Salesforce's price-hike announcement last week with open arms – but Wednesday's incremental generative AI updates reinforce our conviction.

July 19 (Reuters) - Apple (AAPL.O) is working on artificial intelligence (AI) offerings similar to OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday, sending its shares up as much as 2% to a record high. Apple has, however, subtly pushed advanced AI in some of its products such as Apple Photos, on device texting, and the recently launched mixed-reality headset Vision Pro. Apple's core AI product, voice assistant Siri, has also stagnated over the years. The Bloomberg report said several teams are involved in the latest AI effort, which is led by John Giannandrea, the company's head of machine learning and AI, and Craig Federighi, Apple's top software engineering executive. Employees say the tool essentially replicates Bard, ChatGPT and Bing AI, and works as a web application.

"Any incremental improvement in open-source models is eating into the market share of closed-source models because you can run them cheaply and have less dependency," said Masad. The announcement follows plans by Microsoft's largest cloud rivals, Alphabet's (GOOGL.O) Google and Amazon (AMZN.O), to give business customers a range of AI models from which to choose. Amazon, for instance, is marketing access to Claude - AI from the high-profile startup Anthropic - in addition to its own family of Titan models. Google, likewise, has said it plans to make Claude and other models available to its cloud customers. Until now, Microsoft has focused on making technology available from OpenAI in Azure.

But the AI boom has largely missed the companies that make leading edge processors for phones and PCs, like Qualcomm. The announcement on Tuesday suggests that Qualcomm wants to position its processors as well-suited for A.I. If large language models can run on phones instead of in large data centers, it could push down the significant cost of running A.I. Qualcomm will make Meta's open-source Llama 2 models available on Qualcomm devices, which it believes will enable applications like intelligent virtual assistants. Doing this will allow researchers and eventually commercial enterprises to use the AI models on their own computers without asking permission or paying.

Elon Musk launches AI firm xAI as he looks to take on OpenAI
  + stars: | 2023-07-13 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
In a Twitter Spaces event Wednesday evening, Musk explained his plan for building a safer AI. Rather than explicitly programming morality into its AI, xAI will seek to create a "maximally curious" AI, he said. Musk in March registered a firm named X.AI Corp, incorporated in Nevada, according to a state filing. The firm lists Musk as the sole director and Jared Birchall, the managing director of Musk's family office, as a secretary. Dan Hendrycks, who will advise the xAI team, is currently director of the Center for AI Safety and his work revolves around the risks of AI.

In April, Google made a dramatic move to face down the threat from Microsoft and OpenAI: it combined its AI research team, Brain, with DeepMind. By fusing it with its central AI unit, Google sent an unambiguous message that it was pulling out all the stops to supercharge its work in AI. Insider obtained internal org charts that reveal the new power structure of Google DeepMind. Hassabis oversees around 2,450 full-time employees, the majority of which are Google DeepMind employees. Dean, who previously oversaw all of Google's AI unit, has moved from his management position into the new role of Chief Scientist, reporting directly to CEO Sundar Pichai.

[1/3] An AI (Artificial Intelligence) sign is seen at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai, China July 6, 2023. New rules Chinese firms have to comply with range from algorithm vetting to accepting security reviews of data they want to export. They definitely stifle the innovation and slow down the ability of Chinese firms to catch up." A key motivation behind China's reluctance to release AI chatbots is that Beijing fears uncensored chatbots may start influencing societal views in potentially subversive directions, said Mark Natkin, managing director of research firm Marbridge Consulting. "While the U.S. is racing ahead with AI, China is hitting the brakes with more rules."

Google's Bard is trained by contractors who are expected to rapidly review answers, per Bloomberg. Instruction documents showed the contractors were given deadlines as short as three minutes. They work under pressure and are given minimal training, Bloomberg added. Google's Bard is reportedly trained by thousands of contractors under pressure to review answers generated by the AI chatbot in as little as three minutes. However, the workload of humans reviewing responses for Bard has become increasingly larger and more complex, Bloomberg reported, citing internal documents and six contractors.

A recent article on the "Star Wars" films had numerous errors, The Washington Post reported. The story was one of five articles published using Google's Bard and OpenAI's ChatGPT technologies as the outlet pilots new AI initiatives, a representative of Gizmodo told Insider. These will all be designed to complement our journalism and give our editorial teams new tools to serve our audiences." Gizmodo reporters weren't the only ones angered at the flub — readers, too, expressed their dissatisfaction with the AI creation. At the same time, outlets — including Insider — have announced new initiatives to experiment with AI, with editorial procedures in place meant to prevent errors from being published.

Here's a breakdown of two analyst calls targeting Microsoft and Palo Alto, along with our take, too. "In this 'Game of Thrones' battle for AI market share we view the enterprise as the golden-goose opportunity, as we estimate the AI market opportunity is an $800 billion market over the next decade," the analysts argued. Palo Alto Networks The news: RBC Capital Markets on Wednesday bumped Palo Alto Networks' price target to $277 a share, from $232. Morgan Stanley said last week that Palo Alto was on its way to becoming the first cybersecurity company to notch a $100 billion market valuation. Privately held companies have been left to develop AI technology at breakneck speed, giving rise to systems like Microsoft-backed OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard.

The Japanese flag flutters over the Bank of Japan (BoJ) head office building (bottom) in Tokyo on April 27, 2022. At first glance, Asian stocks as a whole have more modest gains so far this year compared with their U.S. and European counterparts. But Asia is more economically diverse than Europe and the U.S., and there are still bright spots in the region, especially in Japan and South Korea. In April, the BOJ announced it will conduct a "a broad-perspective review of [its] monetary policy," which could span 12-18 months. But Lombard Odier still expects the BOJ to end the yield curve control policy before this review is over.

She breaks down five prompts she uses in her work and explains why she prefers Bard to ChatGPT. Tidy this upI've found that when I ask Bard to "improve this," the bot strips away any of the quirks that make it human. I give it links to my published work and ask, "What's the common thread in these stories?" One of the few things I miss about offices is turning to someone next to me to ask for writing help. When I need a confidence boost, I'll ask Bard, "Does this make sense?"

An easy way to harness the power of AI quant models is to look at top holdings of ETFs, he said. But it's a tall task for individual investors — let alone institutions — to develop AI models for stock picking, Oh said. Oh said that the Qraft's momentum fund's top two holdings right now are Amazon (AMZN) and Meta (META). While it was the model that picked Amazon and Meta, Oh said they're solid fundamental plays. As for Meta, Oh said it's well-positioned for the AI boom as is one of the leaders in the space.

An EU regulator has blocked Google from launching Bard in the region. The company had planned to launch Bard in the European Union this week. Google has been forced to postpone the rollout of its Bard chatbot in the European Union over concerns raised by the EU's top data watchdog. The Irish Data Protection Commission is responsible for General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the EU. GDPR, a set of data protection rules, gives individuals more control over how their data is used and transferred by businesses within EU member states.

Tim Cook didn't blink when the CEO was asked whether he uses ChatGPT. Cook has been cautious about generative AI, while other CEOs have been saying 'AI' over and over. Apple CEO Tim Cook said he uses ChatGPT and is excited about the chatbot, during an interview on Good Morning America. That last bit is Tim Cook code. "It's very important to be deliberate and thoughtful on how you approach these things," Cook said during an Apple earnings call earlier this year.

Digital Content Next shared the principles with its board and relevant committees Monday. Digital Content Next's "Principles for Development and Governance of Generative AI": Developers and deployers of GAI must respect creators' rights to their content. The urgency behind building a system of rules and standards for generative AI is intense, said Jason Kint, CEO of Digital Content Next. How generative AI will unfold in the coming months and years is dominating media conversation, said Axios CEO Jim VandeHei. "Even with AI tools or generative AI models that work in text like ChatGPT, it doesn't change the fact we're already doing this work," said Looft.

Apple CEO Tim Cook arrives for the season three premiere of "Ted Lasso" at the Regency Village Theater in Los Angeles, California, on March 7, 2023. Apple CEO Tim Cook said recently that he uses ChatGPT, the AI chatbot, and is excited about the tool's "unique applications." Cook added that large language models — the AI tools that power chatbots like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard — show "great promise" but also the potential for "things like bias, things like misinformation [and] maybe worse in some cases." The Apple CEO also offered his thoughts on regulation and guardrails, saying they're needed but that AI is powerful and the tech's development is moving quickly. "If you look down the road, then it's so powerful that companies have to employ their own ethical decisions," Cook said.

[1/4] People use cameras as Apple's Vision Pro headsets are on display at Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference at the company's headquarters in Cupertino, California, U.S. June 5, 2023. Apple's headset will be available early next year in the U.S. with more countries coming later in 2024. The Vision Pro has two hours of use with an external battery, which Apple said would reduce the weight on the user's head. Investors and tech fans alike are focused on how much Apple's view of the virtual reality market overlaps with Meta's. In addition to Meta, Sony Group Corp (6758.T) and ByteDance-owned Pico both recently released virtual reality devices.

Tech companies should "clearly label" apps which could spread AI-generated disinformation, Bloomberg reported. That's according to a top EU official, and a voluntary code that Google, Meta, and TikTok have signed up to. TikTok, Meta, and Microsoft have been urged to warn users about AI-generated content, Bloomberg reported. According to Vera Jourova, a European Commission vice president, those companies should now "clearly label" any services which could spread AI-generated disinformation, Bloomberg reported. But last month, Elon Musk officially signed off on Twitter's withdrawal from the voluntary code – which seems to have provoked European officials.

In a recent tweet, Graham said he believes all the good AI companies to invest in are still private. This, he said, leaves few options for those public market investors wanting to invest in AI. Paul Graham says public market investors are missing out on a potential way to get in on the AI boom, since all the good companies to invest in are still private. For instance, Google recently led a $100 million round in generative AI startup, Runway, Insider reported. Yet, private investing in AI startup innovations may be where the biggest potential for a huge windfall, as Graham alludes to.
