🚙 Driving Into The Future

Ford Motor Company just launched its AI unit, Latitude AI. The unit will be focused on developing an automated driving system for hands-free, "eyes-off-the-road driving."

The goal of Latitude AI is to advance the existing BlueCruise technology which has already accumulated a whopping 50 million miles of hands-free driving.

Ford aims to use AI technology to improve customer driving experience by introducing automation during often tedious, stressful, and unpleasant situations.

💻 AI Just Became 10x Cheaper

OpenAI made a massive move by dropping both the ChatGPT and Whisper API's simultaneously.

The new ChatGPT API will be 10x cheaper than previous GPT-3 models, making it a heaven for developers. Early users of the API include Snapchat, Quizlet, Instacart, Shopify, and Speak.

OpenAI has also released the ChatGPT playground. Similar to the original GPT-3 playground, developers can test out the model before implementing the API. You can access it here.

I expect many more companies and developers to begin implementing the technology into their apps. We're about to see a massive wave of new AI products in the near future.

🐦 Potential Benefits for AGI and Humanity

We recently created a post on Twitter asking our readers to put their thinking caps on and come up with the most significant problems to humanity that AGI could solve. The responses did not disappoint! Here were the top answers:

A common theme we noticed amongst our audience was their enthusiasm towards AGI's benefits of improving health, fighting diseases, and promoting sustainable energy.

Big shoutout to Adam, Elango, and BoredGeekz for enlightening us on some possibilities that had never crossed our minds!

There were some incredibly thoughtful and well-crafted responses. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all those who shared their insights with us!

Will AGI be more beneficial or detrimental to the human race?

💰 Business Idea of the Day

AI is on track to contribute $15.7 trillion to the global economy in 2030. Here is today's idea to take advantage of the opportunity right now:

Idea: Online cheating detection app

Problem: As a result of the rise of online dating apps, online cheating can often go unnoticed, leading to suspicion and uncertainty in relationships.

Solution: An app that scans hinge, tinder, and all dating profiles to determine if your partner is cheating online. Similar to how Pimeyes can detect your photos across the internet.

Example: The app could alert the user if it detects suspicious behavior, such as frequent messages to a particular person, a sudden increase in app usage, or the creation of new dating profiles. This would provide the user with proof of their partner's infidelity.

Note: This app is a bit controversial. However, with the recent trend of Pimeyes and other detection services, an app of this nature is bound to happen.
