Welcome, AI enthusiasts! It's September twelve, two thousand twenty-four, and today we have a treasure trove of exciting news from the world of Artificial Intelligence. Let's dive right in.

* Google turns your notes into podcasts. 
Google has just rolled out a new feature called "Audio Overviews" in its NotebookLM application. This nifty tool transforms your notes, PDFs, and documents into engaging audio discussions hosted by two virtual AI agents. The feature allows users to upload multiple sources, processing up to fifty documents, each containing up to 500,000 words. Imagine having your textbooks converted into audible summaries – perfect for auditory learners!

* Adobe previews new AI video model. 
Adobe has unveiled its Firefly AI Video Model, expected to be available by the end of this year. This innovative model features three key capabilities: Text to Video, Image to Video, and Generative Extend. With these tools, users can create video clips from prompts, transform still images into moving visuals, and even extend scenes within Adobe Premiere Pro. Adobe aims to revolutionize the video editing landscape, making it easier than ever for content creators.

* How to control AI video camera angles. 
Luma Labs has launched a new feature called "Camera Motion," allowing users to add dynamic camera movements to AI-generated videos using simple text commands. By choosing options like Pan, Push, or Orbit, users can create professional-looking videos without the need for extensive editing skills. This user-friendly addition is fantastic for anyone looking to enhance their video production effortlessly.

* Mistral releases multimodal Pixtral 12B. 
French startup Mistral has released Pixtral 12B, its first multimodal model capable of processing both text and images. With twelve billion parameters, this model is available for free under an open-source license. It allows users to ask questions and receive answers based on both images and text, setting the stage for more sophisticated AI interactions.

* Six new AI tools & four new AI jobs. 
In the realm of AI innovations, six new tools are trending, including Adobe’s Firefly Video, which can generate videos from text or image prompts, and self-care AIs like Earkick. Meanwhile, new job opportunities in the field include roles at companies like Meta and Twelve Labs for data scientists and heads of commercial counsel.

That's a wrap for today! Stay tuned as we keep you updated on the latest developments in AI technology. Remember, the world of AI is ever-evolving, and we’re here to help you stay informed.
