Hassabis explained that well-intended diversity prompts were applied too bluntly across historical contexts, and fine-tuning is underway.
OpenAI just updated the GPT Store with a 1-to-5 star rating system and private creator feedback. Builders can now also link their LinkedIn, X, and websites on expanded profile pages while tracking total conversation stats. The promised revenue-sharing model, however, is still nowhere to be seen.
Google just rolled out an experimental 'Help me write' feature in Chrome M122 for Mac and Windows. Powered by Gemini, the tool understands webpage context to draft or polish reviews, inquiries, and emails directly inside text fields. It is currently available to English users in the U.S.

The company admitted its diversity safeguards went too far, causing the model to misapply diversity to specific historical contexts and become overly cautious.
Match Group just inked an enterprise deal with OpenAI, buying over 1,000 licenses to help employees with coding, design, and analysis. In peak dating-app fashion, the announcement was written with ChatGPT and packed with cringey romance puns. It's all part of Match's $20M+ bet on AI this year.
Google just added its Gemini AI directly into Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Meet for Google One AI Premium subscribers. For $19.99 a month, users can draft emails and build budgets without hopping between tabs or copy-pasting across apps. The English rollout spans over 150 countries, backed by a two-month free trial.
Microsoft just confirmed that OpenAI's Sora video generator will eventually make its way to Copilot. Advertising and web services CEO Mikhail Parakhin replied on X that integration is planned, though it will take time. There is no official timeline yet, but bringing text-to-video directly into Copilot promises to significantly expand its multimodal creative toolkit.
Apple is reportedly expanding internal testing of new generative AI features for Xcode, aiming to release a GitHub Copilot rival to third-party developers later this year. The company is also exploring chatbot-like search upgrades for Spotlight across iOS and macOS to handle complex app actions. After staying relatively quiet in the AI arms race, Apple looks ready to finally show its hand at WWDC.
Google just announced its next-gen AI model Gemini 1.5, led by 1.5 Pro built on a Mixture-of-Experts architecture. It matches flagship 1.0 Ultra quality with far less compute while shattering context limits with support for up to 1 million tokens—enough for an hour of video or 30,000 lines of code. It's rolling out now in limited preview for developers and enterprise users.
X is testing a new Explore page feature that uses Grok to generate brief summaries explaining why topics are trending. Instead of clicking through vague keywords and hashtags, users get an immediate rundown of the day's key stories. The feature is currently in limited testing and may not roll out globally.
Mozilla just announced it is cutting around 60 jobs and shutting down side projects like 3D platform Hubs to refocus on its flagship browser. The organization is combining its Pocket, content, and AI/ML teams directly into Firefox to build 'trustworthy AI' features. Why it matters: After years of chasing diversified bets, Mozilla is retreating to its core base to survive the generative AI era.
AI companies just dropped millions on Super Bowl ads to convince a nervous public they are here to help, not steal jobs.

NVIDIA just released Chat with RTX, a free tech demo that lets you run customized chatbots completely offline on Windows. By connecting local files and YouTube links to open-source models like Mistral and Llama 2 via TensorRT-LLM, you can query notes and documents without sending data to the cloud. You will need a GeForce RTX 30 Series GPU or higher with at least 8GB of VRAM.
McAfee just revealed that 45% of men plan to use AI to draft Valentine’s Day messages this year, up from 30% last year. While 69% say AI-crafted charm gets better responses, 57% admit they'd be hurt or offended if they found out code wrote their love note.
Microsoft just rolled out a new Copilot experience in the latest Windows 11 Canary builds, making the assistant far more context-aware. When you copy text or images, the taskbar icon animates to offer instant actions like summarizing or explaining, while Notepad is also getting right-click AI deciphering for code and logs. It's an early look at how Microsoft plans to reshape Windows for its 2024 "AI PC" push ahead of the 24H2 update.
Brilliant Labs just unveiled Frame, a $349 pair of smart glasses weighing only 39 grams. Backed by Niantic's CEO, the hardware features a 3,000-nit MicroOLED display and front-facing camera powered by an AI assistant called Noa for visual lookup and translation. Preorders are open now, shipping in April.
OpenAI is reportedly working on an autonomous AI agent capable of taking control of user devices to handle tasks directly, according to The Information. Instead of just answering prompts, it could click, type, and transfer data across apps for you. Why it matters: bringing JARVIS-style automation to everyday devices sounds incredible, but handing full device access to cloud AI creates serious privacy and security hurdles.
Google just rebranded Bard to Gemini and rolled out Gemini Advanced, powered by its flagship Ultra 1.0 model. Ultra 1.0 is built for complex reasoning, coding, and creative workflows, beating human experts on MMLU. It is available through the new Google One AI Premium plan alongside a dedicated Android app.
