🚀 Former Google Duo Launches Innovative AI Startup in Tokyo

• This startup intends to explore the concept of coordinating specialized smaller AI models in a manner similar to natural swarms, with the goal of matching the capabilities of larger models.

• This approach aims to cut down on data requirements and costs, offering an alternative to scaling up single massive models.

• Llion Jones, one of the co-founders, played a significant role in developing the transformer architecture, which serves as the foundation for ChatGPT.

🔐 AI Bots Render CAPTCHAs Ineffective

• CAPTCHAs, the puzzles that require users to identify objects like traffic lights or buses to verify their human status, have become irrelevant due to the advanced mimicking abilities of AI bots.

• Originally designed to protect websites from fraudulent activities, CAPTCHAs have lost their effectiveness against automated invasions as AI systems can solve these puzzles accurately.

💬 Novel AI-Powered Social Media App Emerges

• This social media platform allows users to showcase their creativity beyond conventional selfies by submitting text prompts that generate visual content.

• CEO Kristen Garcia Dumont believes this encourages more authentic self-expression compared to the pressure of sharing actual photos.

• The app's community engages with creatively crafted pseudonyms, sharing images derived from prompts and expressing reactions to their favorites.

📽️ Runway Unveils AI 'Watch' Video Sharing Feature

• Runway, a platform centered around AI-powered content creation, introduced a new feature called 'Watch.' This feature enables users to share and view longer videos generated by AI.

• The move comes as Runway seeks to foster a stronger community around AI-driven filmmaking, addressing recent skepticism in the Hollywood landscape.
