We have another episode of the Generative AI News (GAIN) rundown, which provides a live discussion of the week’s top industry news. This week, the tech giants were out in force with news from Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, and OpenAI. Featured stories this week include: Alexa Gets an LLM - Amazon has had a large language model (LLM) for years, but never let it out of the lab until ChatGPT changed the market seemingly overnight. Amazon has fully embraced LLMs at this point and started to infuse it through AWS, and across its Alexa-enabled products and services. Eric and I discussed what was demonstrated this week, my hands-on experience with the capabilities, the limitations, and more inside details. Hour One Can Change What You Say in a Video - Hour One just launched a really interesting new feature that enables you to change what people say in a video. Add a new script or upload an audio file, and it will match the person’s mouth and facial movements with the written text. This can be used for your own footage or stock video. Check out the demo here. Assistants on Parade - Google Bard got an upgrade this week with a connection to Google Workspace and other Google services. This may be truly useful and extend the value of Bard to a level of personalized benefit we have not yet seen in the market. Microsoft also announced Copilot will come to Windows 11 next week, and ChatGPT is expected to get access to DALL-E 3 text-to-image generation. This led to a more general discussion about digital assistants and the different models that are emerging. Generative AI winners and losers of the week.
