Top Insights

1. Fascinating FT Opinion Article: big tech screwed by AI?

Summary: In the generative AI 'gold rush', big tech companies like Google, Microsoft, and Meta aren’t guaranteed to dominate, despite their resources. Rather, smaller, more agile competitors developing cost-effective, fast, and specialized AI models are better-positioned to succeed. The issue: big tech’s moats are leapfrogged by AI.

2. Google joins the AI arms race!

Summary: Google's announced a new AI ecosystem to challenge OpenAI's supremacy. Despite being good, Google is not yet on par with ChatGPT & Midjourney. Their secret weapon? A potent AI model being built, called Gemini. The AI arms race is on.

Every AI announcement from Google:

1. No More Waitlist for Bard AI: Enables global access, encouraging widespread use and facilitating a diverse user community.

2. Dark Theme: Reduces eye strain.

3. Integration With Google Products and Third-Party Plugins: Broadens Bard AI's utility within a larger ecosystem of services.

4. Image Prompting: Allows Bard AI to interpret visual prompts, enabling more varied and sophisticated interactions.

5. Image Generation Integration With Adobe Firefly. Allows image creation directly from the Bard AI interface.

6. Tools for Exporting Generated Content. Enhances data portability and collaboration by integrating with tools like Google Sheets and Docs.

7. Improved Code Generation. Supports users in coding tasks, including code generation, explanation, and debugging.

8. PaLM 2 (Google’s LLM): Improves the quality of Bard AI's outputs, making it a more effective tool for a wide range of tasks.

9. Gemini: A new LLM being built, promising to be much more powerful.

ChatGPT guide: Top10 Prompts to Creatively 10x Your Work

1. Step 1: Identify Your Needs: Start by identifying the areas in your work where you need assistance or wish to improve. This could be anything from brainstorming new ideas, learning new skills, understanding complex issues, or gaining insights about future trends.

2. Step2: Tailor the Prompts: Depending on your needs, select the relevant "Goal Output" from the list of prompts. Tailor the prompt examples to your specific work context or industry. For instance, if you're in marketing, the "Advanced Brainstorming" prompt could be used to generate unique campaign ideas.

3. Step3: Interact with the AI: Present your tailored prompts to the AI. Engage in a conversation, ask follow-up questions or request clarification if needed. Don't limit yourself to a single interaction; you can return to the same prompt multiple times, adjusting it slightly each time to gain new perspectives.

Midjourney Guide: Narrative Prompting (NP)

What is NP: The use of detailed, story-like prompts in ongoing AI conversations to ensure context-rich and coherent responses.

Why it's useful: This method enhances the AI's context understanding, communication effectiveness, and creative output, making interactions more meaningful and engaging.

When to use: Use it in complex tasks requiring context understanding, like storytelling, problem-solving, content creation, and extended customer service interactions.

When to avoid: Avoid it for simple, fact-based tasks or when speed trumps detailed responses.

Prompt Examples:

1. Instead of “Character Design” try: 

   • Instead of saying, "Create a character,"

   • try, "In the farthest reaches of the galaxy, a rogue space explorer makes his way through alien worlds. He's tall, athletic, adorned with neon tattoos, and possesses cybernetic limbs. His worn-out space suit tells tales of countless adventures, and he carries a futuristic gadget, a unique fusion of a staff and a laser gun."

2. Instead of “Detailed Landscape” try: 

   • "In a far-off fantasy world, twilight descends on a glowing forest. Bioluminescent plants shimmer with ethereal light, a waterfall cascades into a crystal-clear pond, and in the distance, the silhouette of a majestic castle looms."
