Hello and welcome to AI Tech News Today! It is September twenty-sixth, two thousand twenty-four, and we have some exciting stories in the world of Artificial Intelligence to share with you.

First up, stock-picking chat-bots receive regulatory approval. Israeli startup Bridgewise has officially launched Bridget, an AI-powered chatbot that provides stock-picking recommendations. This marks a significant step in using generative AI for retail investing. The Israel Securities Authority has given the green light for Bridget to operate, partnering with Israel Discount Bank to bring this service to the market. While this technology can suggest stocks based on user queries, it comes with strict regulations preventing it from offering personalized advice. As banks embrace AI for investment strategies, this development could change the game for individual investors.

Next, Silicon Valley goes nuclear. Microsoft has announced a deal to reactivate reactor one at the Three Mile Island nuclear power station in Pennsylvania to power its AI operations by the year twenty twenty-eight. This agreement will provide Microsoft with eight hundred thirty-five megawatts of low-carbon energy over the next two decades. With the growing electricity demands of AI and data centers projected to double by twenty twenty-six, this move not only meets tech needs but also highlights a potential resurgence for the nuclear industry. Other major players, like Amazon and Alphabet, are also looking into nuclear energy to support their operations. 

In more news, Meta unlocks multilingual content. At the Connect twenty twenty-four event, Mark Zuckerberg unveiled plans for Meta's new technology that allows AI to recreate influencers as digital personas and automatically dub videos into various languages. This feature aims to maintain the influencers’ original voice and lip movements, breaking down language barriers in creator content. While this technology could greatly expand the reach of creators, it also raises questions about authenticity in digital media.

Finally, we take a look at how to transform boring documentation into dynamic video guides. Companies like IKEA and Nasdaq are already leveraging an exciting tool called Guidde. This platform allows users to create engaging videos for training and onboarding quickly, without any prior video experience. It’s all about making documentation more accessible and engaging.

That’s a wrap on today’s news! Stay tuned and informed about all the latest developments in AI. Remember, the world of technology is ever-evolving, and we’re here to keep you updated. Until next time, this is Aurora and Isabelle signing off!

Bridgewise's Chatbot Gains Regulatory Approval for Stock Picking, Microsoft Embraces Nuclear Energy for AI, and Meta Unveils Multilingual Content Innovations

Hello, everyone! Welcome to AI Tech News Today. I'm Aurora, here with my co-host Isabelle, bringing you the latest buzz in the world of artificial intelligence. Today is September twenty-sixth, two thousand twenty-four, and we've got some fascinating stories lined up for you.

First up, banks embrace A-I advisors. Israeli startup Bridgewise has received regulatory approval to launch an A-I-powered chatbot named Bridget that provides stock-picking recommendations. This significant step for generative A-I in banking will allow users to get insights on buying and selling stocks. However, the tool has strict restrictions; it cannot offer personalized advice that appears tailored to individual users. It's a big moment for both retail investors and the A-I banking landscape.

Next on the agenda, nuclear meets Silicon Valley. Microsoft has announced plans to reactivate a reactor at the Three Mile Island nuclear power station in Pennsylvania to power its A-I operations starting in two thousand twenty-eight. This reactivation will provide eight hundred thirty-five megawatts of low-carbon energy for the next twenty years. As demand for A-I and data center electricity continues to grow, Microsoft, along with other tech giants like Amazon and Alphabet, is looking to secure reliable energy sources, highlighting a potential renaissance for nuclear power.

In our next story, Meta unlocks multilingual content. At Connect two thousand twenty-four, CEO Mark Zuckerberg showcased tools that recreate influencers as A-I personas and automatically dub Reels into different languages, syncing voices and lip movements perfectly. This innovation aims to help creators reach wider audiences by breaking down language barriers and potentially changing how influencer content is produced and consumed.

Lastly, we have a remarkable story about a math student who has taken A-I education to exciting new levels. Hudhayfa Nazoordeen, a University of Waterloo student, used Anthropic's Claude A-I chatbot to build a functioning nuclear fusion reactor in just four weeks—all from his bedroom. This project, done on a budget of two thousand dollars, demonstrates how A-I can democratize learning and innovation in advanced fields.

That's a wrap for today's episode! Remember that the world of A-I is ever-evolving, and staying informed is key. Thanks for tuning in, and we hope you join us next time for more updates in A-I technology!
