Generative AI News - OpenAI's New Board Powers, Gemini v GPT-3 & 4, Copilot Music, Instagram, and More - Voicebot Podcast 367

Google once again made our featured story section with an
independent benchmark performance analysis of the Gemini Pro LLM
compared with GPT-3.5 and GPT-4. We go into more depth about the
benchmarks and how to interpret the results. Channel 1 says it’s
positioned to change the news media with its virtual human
avatar-delivered stories and Accenture did a lot of generative AI
revenue.


Eric Schwartz, head writer of Voicebot.ai, joined me to break
down the news this week and offer additional context behind the
headlines.
