🔥What is hot in the market? Fresh news from the oven
1⃣ AI Nightmare: Hollywood wants to replace background actors with AI-gen characters, pay them for only a day
Hollywood studios plan to use AI to create characters from scanned background actors, retaining rights to use these characters indefinitely without additional compensation.
This has led to a strike by the Screen Actors Guild and the Writers Guild of America. Despite the strike, some studios have already begun using digital avatars in place of background actors in upcoming films.
2⃣ Meta to release commercial AI model like ChatGPT, Bard
Meta is set to release a commercial version of its AI model, aiming to compete with giants like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard. The new software, powered by large language models, will be capable of generating text, images, and code. Unlike its predecessor, LLaMA, which was limited to researchers and academics, this new model is designed for wider availability and customization.
This move is part of Meta's broader strategy to create AI chatbots across its platforms. The release is expected soon.
3⃣ Introducing beehiiv AI
Beehiiv has launched an AI suite for newsletter creators, featuring a Writing Assistant, Text Tools, an Image Tool, and a Translator. These tools, integrated into Beehiiv's text editor, aim to streamline content creation, fix grammar, generate images, and translate content into popular languages. The AI suite is available on Beehiiv's Scale and Enterprise plans.
4️⃣ AI trend drives rise in students wanting to study computing
Record-breaking numbers of 18-year-olds are choosing to study computing, with applications up almost 10% from last year, according to the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS).
This surge is largely attributed to the rise of digital and AI technologies. Despite this increase, computing ranks as the seventh most popular field of study. Notably, software engineering and computer science saw the most significant application increases. However, the field remains predominantly male, with women making up only 18% of applicants.
