UPDATE

🧠 Google’s new AI is strangely good!

Google released the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro with advanced AI features for photo editing.

These devices use AI to modify facial expressions and remove or resize objects in photos using features like Best Take.

Want to turn that family grimace into a grin? Poof! Done. That photobomber behind your romantic dinner? Vanish, I say!

Another feature is the “Magic Editor” which you can use to remove, shift, or resize elements in a photo.

While some critics find these features ethically questionable and potentially damaging to trust in digital content, Google argues they enhance user experiences by creating visually appealing images.

🤖 ChatGPT can now analyze files

OpenAI has significantly upgraded ChatGPT, enhancing both its functionality and user experience.

This latest update introduces several notable advancements:

1/ Automated Model Selection: ChatGPT now intelligently selects the most suitable model for various tasks. This includes running Python code, engaging with web browsers, or creating images using DALL-E, streamlining user interaction.

2/ File Upload and Analysis: A pivotal addition for ChatGPT Plus members is the ability to upload files directly, such as PDFs, into the chat interface. ChatGPT can now analyze these files, offering summaries, answers to related queries, and even generating data visualizations based on user prompts.

3/ Multimodal Support: This update brings a significant enhancement where ChatGPT can switch between models automatically, facilitating a smoother and more efficient user experience without the need for manual model selection.

4/ Inclusion of Enterprise Features in ChatGPT Plus: ChatGPT Plus now incorporates some advanced features previously exclusive to ChatGPT Enterprise. This includes more sophisticated file analysis capabilities.

5/ Direct Internet Browsing: ChatGPT can independently access and browse the internet, eliminating the need for additional plugins.

6/ Integrated Features: Many functionalities, formerly available only through external plugins, are now seamlessly integrated within ChatGPT. This integration significantly improves accessibility and usability.
