Middle East AI News Minute - 07-Aug-23

Hello and welcome, AI enthusiasts! It’s November twelfth, twenty twenty-four, and we have some exciting updates from the world of Artificial Intelligence to explore today.

First up, deepmind opens Alphafold three to researchers worldwide. Google DeepMind has released the source code for its groundbreaking Alphafold three model, which predicts protein structures. This Nobel Prize-winning technology is now freely accessible to academics, empowering them to explore new frontiers in biology without the heavy financial burden usually associated with such advanced tools. With over two hundred million protein structures already mapped, this could accelerate medical breakthroughs and innovation.

Next, Qwen unveils powerful new open-source coding A-I. Alibaba Cloud's Qwen has launched a new suite of coding models that perfectly blends performance with accessibility. Their flagship thirty-two billion parameter model matches leading tools like G-P-T four and Claude three point five in code generation tasks. Developers can use this versatile model across forty programming languages, making A-I-driven coding more widely accessible than ever.

In other news, google Gemini lets you create multilingual subtitles. This new feature allows users to transform videos into multiple languages with ease, generating accurate transcripts and enhanced subtitles. Simply upload your video to Google AI Studio, and with a few clicks, you'll have subtitles ready for a global audience.

Additionally, A-I detects blood pressure and diabetes from short videos. Researchers in Japan have developed an innovative system that analyzes facial and hand movements in video clips to determine a person's blood pressure and risk of diabetes. This process boasts a staggering ninety-four percent accuracy, potentially revolutionizing how we monitor our health at home with something as simple as a quick video.

Lastly, there are plenty of new A-I tools and job opportunities popping up. From tools that provide sales insights to those enhancing your communication skills in various languages, the A-I landscape continues to expand. Plus, companies are hiring A-I roles at a steady pace, ensuring that there's a place for talented individuals eager to join this rapidly evolving field.

That wraps up today’s AI news roundup! Remember to stay engaged with the latest in Artificial Intelligence; it's evolving every day, and you won't want to miss a thing. Catch you next time!

Good morning! It’s Friday, January third, and you are listening to AI Tech News Today. We’re here to catch you up on the latest buzz in the world of Artificial Intelligence.

Setbacks mount for OpenAI and xAI as AI delays persist. OpenAI's Media Manager, designed to provide creators control over their content for AI training, has yet to launch, raising questions about its effectiveness with ongoing lawsuits. Meanwhile, xAI's Grok 3 has missed its anticipated launch window, joining other delayed AI models from major players like Anthropic and Google. It seems the industry is experiencing growing pains as scaling laws strain under diminishing returns.

Microsoft's new Large Action Model can perform some tasks in Word. Microsoft has introduced a transformative AI model that can execute tasks autonomously, rather than just processing text. In tests, this model outperformed GPT-4, completing tasks with a success rate of seventy-one percent and doing so at an impressive speed. However, challenges remain, including security risks and ethical concerns.

AI companies slash prices in battle for market share. In a dramatic turn of events, the generative AI market is witnessing a price war. Alibaba Cloud has cut costs by up to eighty-five percent, which has forced giants like OpenAI and Google to follow suit. This shift aims to boost competitiveness and tackle the encroachment of open-source models like Meta’s Llama.

Nvidia files patent for advanced AR glasses. Nvidia's new patent positions them at the forefront of augmented reality technology, employing a subtractive approach using digital holography to enhance energy efficiency and reduce the size of AR displays. This innovation could redefine the future of AR experiences, making them more immersive without draining the battery.

Thank you for tuning in today! As Artificial Intelligence continues to evolve, it is crucial to stay informed about the developments shaping our technological landscape. Join us next time for more insights and updates from the world of AI!
