Greetings,

You may have already heard that the new AI voiceover of GPT-4oh snap,… lol, sounds suspiciously similar to Scarlett Johansson, the Ai voice in the movie HER of all things, with Joaquin Phoenix. 

Scarlett also declined OpenAI’s offer twice! So it’s going to be kind of hard to claim coincidence.

… anyhow, what do you think?

Welcome to another issue of Weekly.Ai as we try to make you the Ai voiceover in your office.

What you’ll learn today? Building a blog with Ai in under 10 minutes.

That said, here are some of the latest releases and newest toys you should be aware of…

• Anthropic makes a huge breakthrough in understanding Ai

• Google Maps just got AI upgrades!

• Windows PCs are Jumping into AI

• How to create your Blog with AI

• Cool Ai tool

• What’s cooking with BotBuilders

Let's dive in, shall we?

Anthropic made a huge breakthrough in understanding Ai

I know this Topic is a bit technical, but if you want to use advanced techniques, or perhaps build your own Ai for your Business, it’s important to understand how it works.

Anthropic reported a breakthrough in understanding the inner workings of Ai models by identifying how millions of concepts are represented inside Claude Sonnet, a large language model (LLM).

Anthropic is a company focused on Ai safety and research. They aim to create interpretable Ai systems that align with human values, reducing risks associated with advanced Ai technologies.

This is the first detailed examination of a modern, production-grade large language model, with implications for improving Ai safety.

Some context:

• One of the biggest mysteries in Ai is interpreting the “black box”. It is what the model is "thinking" before writing its response.

• If we don't know how they think, how do we know they won't give harmful, biased, untruthful, or otherwise dangerous responses? How can we trust that they’ll be safe and reliable?
  

• Opening the "black box" doesn't necessarily help, as the internal state is just a long list of meaningless numbers ("neuron activations").
  

• Scientists at Anthropic found that specific neuron activity patterns, called "features," are linked to particular ideas in an Ai model, allowing its internal state to be described with just a few active features.
  

• Just as words are made by combining letters and sentences by combining words, Ai features are made by combining neurons, and internal states by combining features.

Key findings:

• Feature Causality: Researchers found that adjusting how strong certain “features” fire, affects both the model's behavior and the outputs.
  

  • Here’s a short Video explaining it better than I ever could.
    
    For example, where Claude (an Ai) usually refuses to reply due to ethical concerns, triggering the "Scam Email" feature more strongly forces the AI to comply with the user's request.
    

• Safety Concerns: Anthropic thinks that being able to spot and change certain features can make AI safer. For instance, if we enhance a feature that helps recognize scam emails, the AI might get better at spotting scams and alerting users.

What this means for you:

One thing we at BotBuilders do is help you create and sell Ai chatbots. Knowing how Ai works, and its Problems makes you ultimately more trustworthy.

Also, by understanding and manipulating these features, researchers can potentially monitor and steer AI behavior towards safer outcomes.

Google Maps just got 5 new Ai features

Google Maps just got cool new AI upgrades.

1. Directly chat with Google Maps and ask it for any information.

2. Augmented reality: Find nearby ATMs, restaurants, streets, etc. with your Camera.

3. you can scope out places before visiting, see photorealistic views, and get helpful information like weather forecasts, and peak crowd times.

4. combine words and images to discover what you’re searching for freshly and innovatively – accessing information from millions of local businesses on Google Maps.

5. Ai-powered suggestions on the go.

Microsoft’s New Ai-Focused PCs

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella announced, that in the future Microsoft Pc’s, some Ai processing will happen directly in the computer.

One feature in action: If you wanted to buy something last night but don’t remember the name or brand. Just describe it, and it’ll pull up the website again.

This may seem a bit creepy: Microsoft taking Pictures of your Computer …

But according to Satya Nadella, it’s all done locally on your computer, and won’t leave it.

But If you’re still concerned, you can also restrict recall to take screenshots from certain websites or apps or you could turn it off entirely.

If you find this interesting, Joanna Stern made a great Video on The Wall Street Journal about it.

Create your Blog with Ai

Have you ever wanted to create a Blog, but you just didn’t find the time for it?

If so, here’s how To Create Your Blog With AI in less than 10 minutes …

… and this is all for Free.

First, Go to GravityWrite, and create your Account.

Today, we’re mostly going to use the Option “Blog Workflow” on the left side.

If you don’t already have ideas, click “Blog Topic Ideas”, Enter some keywords in which direction you’d like to go and choose a topic.

Now, we create an outline for the Blog. Click “Blog Outline”, enter the topic you choose, and create the content. If you’d like to change anything, just click on the left side to edit it.

Once you have your outline, paste it into "Blog Content”, and enter the topic, to create the Blog itself. If you don’t like something, you can still edit it manually.

Now, copy and paste your Content into a Google Doc.

To find great Pictures, we use GravityWrite again. Just click on “Image Brief for Blog Post”, paste in your Content, and click “Create Content”.

On the right side, you should now see a list of Images you could add, with Prompts to create them.

You could use almost any tool to create the Pictures. We recommend Playground Ai. Just paste in the Prompt, create/edit the Image, and add it to your Google Doc.

Before you Publish your Blog, you could create a featured image for it. The fastest way to do so is with Canva. Just select a Template, and edit it for the Blog.

Now, just give it a last read, and there you have your very own Blog created with AI.

After you’ve created your Blog …

• ChatPlayground - Allows you to use and compare the best AI chatbots in a single interface

• Praktika - language tutor powered by AI avatars

• Sana AI - AI assistant that automates those repetitive tasks

• Durable - An AI that builds a website for you.

As we kind of mentioned above, and to our new subscribers… our friends at BotBuilders help you create and sell Ai chatbots. Knowing how Ai works, and how to do advanced prompts, is what we specialize in doing for niche businesses.

BotBuilders can create a forward-facing representative for your company that handles the routine questions and qualifying before passing it on to trusted representatives in your company that are the closers or when customers need that personal touch.

That’s all for today.

If you’d like to give us feedback, just reply. We read our emails daily.

P.S. If you're still reading this, you're officially a genius. You know brilliant stuff when you see it ;-]
