OpenAI introduced GPT-4o as a new model and the foundation for
ChatGPT. The company also offered more than a dozen videos and
other use case examples, which enabled us to break down many of
the nuances enabled by the new model. Is this the voice assistant
everyone always wanted?
A day later, Google debuted its latest updates for Gemini and
offered a preview of Project Astra, the upgraded future of Gemini
assistant, which they say will turn it into an agent for users.
Google provided just a couple of videos and examples, but it also
showed off a much broader set of impacts across its applications.
These include search, Workspace, photos, and smart glasses (?).
In all, Google had more than 100 announcement at I/O and most
related to AI.
Below are 20 articles and blog posts that provide added context
on the biggest news across the generative AI landscape. There
were a few stories we did not get to that were also of
significant impact and we will likely work them into the next
episode of GAIN.

Over two recent weeks a landslide of stories mostly revolved
around large language models (LLM). Llama 3 was the biggest news,
but the debut of new models by Microsoft, Mistral, and X.ai also
pointed to a downstream impact. We also have a couple of
nine-figure funding rounds, a nine-figure acquisition, and a new
unicorn valuation is confirmed.

with Eric Schwartz of Voicebot.ai, in which we break it all down
via the YouTube video above.

We begin this week with three thematic discussions. Generative AI
myths reviews the recent Stargate rumors and why journalists are
so easily co-opted into publishing stories that may have a seed
of truth shrouded in impractical, nonsensical claims. We also
discuss three news items highlighting how generative AI is
transforming the search market and the coalition of companies
that want to displace NVIDIA from its generative AI throne.
That is followed by an onslaught of news from the past two weeks.
We have an LLM rundown that includes announcements from
Anthropic, X.ai, Databricks, and AI21 Labs, as well as a
dedicated section on OpenAI announcements. Funding highlights
include HeyGen and Hailo. There is also news from Adobe, Opera,
Samsung, Open Interpreter, and Financial Times.
