🥇 AI protects athletes at Paris Olympics

Have you ever thought about learning to code?

If you have, sorry you might be too late into the game now anyways.

By using apps like Devin AI, you would not need to understand or write a single line of code in order to ship an app.

It’s game-changing, especially for us without a computer science background but wishing to start our very own projects and businesses.

 🥇 AI protects athletes at Paris Olympics

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) plans to use AI to protect athletes from online abuse during the Paris 2024 Olympics.

AI will monitor and automatically delete abusive social media posts targeting 15,000 athletes and officials.

This proactive safeguarding tool aims to shield athletes from cyberbullying amid ongoing global conflicts. The AI system will cover all types of abuse, not just political attacks.

🐱 AI can now tell if your cat is in pain

A new Japanese AI app called "Cats Me!" claims to interpret cats' emotions with over 95% accuracy. Developed by university researchers, the app uses AI trained on 6,000 cat photos to recognize signs of pain in felines.

This technology could help address the issue of undiagnosed arthritis pain in senior cats, as many owners don't recognize the symptoms.

📝 Wordsmith brings AI paralegals to every employee

Wordsmith's "lawyer-in-the-loop" generative AI platform enables employees across a company to get assistance with legal tasks like reviewing contracts and answering questions about documents.

The company has raised a $5 million seed round led by Index Ventures, along with General Catalyst and Gareth Williams, the founder of Skyscanner.

Wordsmith's approach contrasts with startups like Harvey AI, which targets lawyers directly, by enabling legal teams to configure the platform for use by non-legal employees within the company.

A typical use case could involve someone in sales needing to review a new contract or procurement needing to scrutinize terms and conditions, with Wordsmith providing AI-powered assistance under the oversight of the legal team.

🎬 London cinema drops AI-written film after backlash

The BBC article discusses the cancellation of a screening for "The Last Screenwriter", a film entirely written by AI, at the Prince Charles Cinema in London due to public backlash over the use of AI in place of human writers.

The film, created by Peter Luisi, was marketed as the first feature film written solely by AI and follows a screenwriter who encounters an advanced AI scriptwriting system.

The screening was cancelled after the cinema received overwhelming criticism from the audience, who raised concerns about AI replacing human writers in the entertainment industry.

📐 Roblox going 4D generative AI

Roblox aims to create 4D generative AI that produces dynamic, interactive 3D objects with realistic physics and behaviors, not just static models.

This requires multimodal AI understanding appearance, shape, physics, and code. Early tools like Material Generator are foundational, but solving 4D interaction is the next frontier.

💬 Your chance to talk with Holocaust survivors

The Holocaust Educational Trust is introducing an innovative AI-powered program that allows students to interact with virtual Holocaust survivors.

This technology uses speech-to-text recognition and 3D filming techniques to create lifelike representations of survivors who can answer up to 1,000 questions.

The initiative aims to preserve survivors' stories and educate future generations about the Holocaust, especially as the number of living survivors decreases and antisemitism rises.

👨🏻‍🔬 OpenAI’s former chief scientist is starting a new AI company

Ilya Sutskever, a co-founder and former chief scientist of OpenAI, has launched a new AI company called Safe Superintelligence Inc. (SSI).

The company's sole mission is to develop a safe and powerful AI system capable of surpassing human intelligence, known as superintelligence.

Sutskever's departure from OpenAI in May followed his failed attempt to replace CEO Sam Altman and concerns from other researchers about safety processes taking a backseat to marketable products.

💰 OpenAI may go for-profits now

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has indicated the company may transition to a for-profit benefit corporation structure, similar to rivals Anthropic and xAI.

This potential shift could enable an IPO for the $86 billion-valued company and allow Altman to acquire a stake, balancing profit with social responsibility.

☢️ Nuclear energy for AI data centers

Bill Gates has invested $1 billion in a groundbreaking nuclear power plant project in Wyoming through his company TerraPower. The innovative facility, featuring a sodium-cooled reactor core, aims to provide clean and abundant electricity to power U.S. homes, businesses, and AI data centers.

The plant is expected to be completed by 2030 and cost up to $4 billion, significantly less than recent nuclear projects in the U.S.

Gates believes nuclear power could address the increasing electricity demand driven by AI and electric vehicles.
