\u201cBuilt to push boundaries, Galaxy Watch Ultra withstands up to 55\u00b0C heat, 9,000m altitude, 10 ATM water pressure and runs smoothly through it all with a new, powerful 3nm processor.\u201d <\/em>reads the official page on Sa<\/a>msung\u2019s website.

The new smartwatches follow Samsung's approach to making holistic health-related products such as the Galaxy Ring. The watch utilizes several Bioactive sensors to track vital signs of users such as sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, body composition, and more. The data is then analyzed by Galaxy AI to generate an energy score, which offers insight into the user's daily activities. Users will need the latest Samsung Health App on a compatible Android device (Android 11 or above) to unlock the full features.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is made with titanium and sapphire crystals and comes in 3 different
colors. It has a 590 mAh battery that can last between 60-80 hours depending on usage.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is currently available in one version for $649.99. The Galaxy Watch 7
comes in two sizes: 40 mm for $299.99 and 44 mm for $329.99. The watches with LTE support will cost a further $50.<\/p>\n","post_title":"From Samsung Unpacked: Samsung Brings AI To Fashion With 2 New Smart Watches","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"from-samsung-unpacked-samsung-brings-ai-to-fashion-with-2-new-smart-watches","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-10 18:30:34","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-10 08:30:34","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18078","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Samsung has unveiled 2 new smartwatches that harness the power of the company's
proprietary Galaxy AI. The news came during the recently concluded Samsung Unpacked<\/a> event held in Paris.

\u201cBuilt to push boundaries, Galaxy Watch Ultra withstands up to 55\u00b0C heat, 9,000m altitude, 10 ATM water pressure and runs smoothly through it all with a new, powerful 3nm processor.\u201d <\/em>reads the official page on Sa<\/a>msung\u2019s website.

Along with several other products, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Ultra Watch and the Galaxy and the Galaxy Watch 7 to much anticipation. Industry experts are calling it a direct rival to Apple's smartwatches, with many noting the similarities between the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new smartwatches follow Samsung's approach to making holistic health-related products such as the Galaxy Ring. The watch utilizes several Bioactive sensors to track vital signs of users such as sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, body composition, and more. The data is then analyzed by Galaxy AI to generate an energy score, which offers insight into the user's daily activities. Users will need the latest Samsung Health App on a compatible Android device (Android 11 or above) to unlock the full features.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is made with titanium and sapphire crystals and comes in 3 different
colors. It has a 590 mAh battery that can last between 60-80 hours depending on usage.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is currently available in one version for $649.99. The Galaxy Watch 7
comes in two sizes: 40 mm for $299.99 and 44 mm for $329.99. The watches with LTE support will cost a further $50.<\/p>\n","post_title":"From Samsung Unpacked: Samsung Brings AI To Fashion With 2 New Smart Watches","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"from-samsung-unpacked-samsung-brings-ai-to-fashion-with-2-new-smart-watches","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-10 18:30:34","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-10 08:30:34","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18078","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Samsung has unveiled 2 new smartwatches that harness the power of the company's
proprietary Galaxy AI. The news came during the recently concluded Samsung Unpacked<\/a> event held in Paris.

\u201cBuilt to push boundaries, Galaxy Watch Ultra withstands up to 55\u00b0C heat, 9,000m altitude, 10 ATM water pressure and runs smoothly through it all with a new, powerful 3nm processor.\u201d <\/em>reads the official page on Sa<\/a>msung\u2019s website.

Along with several other products, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Ultra Watch and the Galaxy and the Galaxy Watch 7 to much anticipation. Industry experts are calling it a direct rival to Apple's smartwatches, with many noting the similarities between the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new smartwatches follow Samsung's approach to making holistic health-related products such as the Galaxy Ring. The watch utilizes several Bioactive sensors to track vital signs of users such as sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, body composition, and more. The data is then analyzed by Galaxy AI to generate an energy score, which offers insight into the user's daily activities. Users will need the latest Samsung Health App on a compatible Android device (Android 11 or above) to unlock the full features.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is made with titanium and sapphire crystals and comes in 3 different
colors. It has a 590 mAh battery that can last between 60-80 hours depending on usage.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is currently available in one version for $649.99. The Galaxy Watch 7
comes in two sizes: 40 mm for $299.99 and 44 mm for $329.99. The watches with LTE support will cost a further $50.<\/p>\n","post_title":"From Samsung Unpacked: Samsung Brings AI To Fashion With 2 New Smart Watches","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"from-samsung-unpacked-samsung-brings-ai-to-fashion-with-2-new-smart-watches","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-10 18:30:34","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-10 08:30:34","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18078","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

American tech giant Google has recently released the Imagen 3 image generator to the public.

The Imagen 3 was originally announced<\/a> during the Google I\/O event in May. Like other similar AI models, Imagen 3 generates images from text prompts.

Samsung has unveiled 2 new smartwatches that harness the power of the company's
proprietary Galaxy AI. The news came during the recently concluded Samsung Unpacked<\/a> event held in Paris.

\u201cBuilt to push boundaries, Galaxy Watch Ultra withstands up to 55\u00b0C heat, 9,000m altitude, 10 ATM water pressure and runs smoothly through it all with a new, powerful 3nm processor.\u201d <\/em>reads the official page on Sa<\/a>msung\u2019s website.

Along with several other products, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Ultra Watch and the Galaxy and the Galaxy Watch 7 to much anticipation. Industry experts are calling it a direct rival to Apple's smartwatches, with many noting the similarities between the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new smartwatches follow Samsung's approach to making holistic health-related products such as the Galaxy Ring. The watch utilizes several Bioactive sensors to track vital signs of users such as sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, body composition, and more. The data is then analyzed by Galaxy AI to generate an energy score, which offers insight into the user's daily activities. Users will need the latest Samsung Health App on a compatible Android device (Android 11 or above) to unlock the full features.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is made with titanium and sapphire crystals and comes in 3 different
colors. It has a 590 mAh battery that can last between 60-80 hours depending on usage.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is currently available in one version for $649.99. The Galaxy Watch 7
comes in two sizes: 40 mm for $299.99 and 44 mm for $329.99. The watches with LTE support will cost a further $50.<\/p>\n","post_title":"From Samsung Unpacked: Samsung Brings AI To Fashion With 2 New Smart Watches","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"from-samsung-unpacked-samsung-brings-ai-to-fashion-with-2-new-smart-watches","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-10 18:30:34","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-10 08:30:34","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18078","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Global mass media company Cond\u00e9 Nast has agreed on a multi-year content deal with AI company OpenAI. This deal follows a recent trend of AI companies partnering with media outlets to benefit both parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re announcing a partnership with Cond\u00e9 Nast to display content from top brands within our products\u201d,<\/em> the company states in a blog post<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Led by Sam Altman and partly owned by Microsoft, OpenAI is a startup best known for the AI chatbot called ChatGPT. Recently, they have launched a prototype search engine called SearchGPT. This marks a direct foray by OpenAI into the search engine market, which Google still dominates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenAI will display content from Conde Nast\u2019s various media outlets directly on the AI company\u2019s products as part of the agreement. These outlets include well-renowned magazines such as Vogue, The New Yorker, Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveler, GQ, Architectural Digest, Vanity Fair, Wired, Bon App\u00e9tit, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See Related: <\/em><\/strong>OpenAI Launches ChatGPT Plus Subscription In India; Includes GPT-4<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In return, OpenAI will get access to \u201cfeedback and insights on the design and performance of SearchGPT\u201d<\/em> from users. The company plans to use this data to improve its products and enhance user experience. Many sources expressed<\/a> that this data will be used to train AI models currently employed by OpenAI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re committed to working with Cond\u00e9 Nast and other news publishers to ensure that as AI plays a larger role in news discovery and delivery, it maintains accuracy, integrity, and respect for quality reporting.\u201d<\/em>, said Brad Lightcap, COO at OpenAI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neither party has disclosed the financial terms of the contract. Previously, OpenAI had entered into long-term content deals with the Associated Press, Axel Springer, TIME, Vox, NewsCorps, and several other publishers.<\/p>\n","post_title":"OpenAI Teams Up With Cond\u00e9 Nast In A \u201cMulti-Year Content Deal\u201d","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"openai-teams-up-with-conde-nast-in-a-multi-year-content-deal","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-29 12:19:44","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-29 02:19:44","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18403","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18317,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-08-23 05:23:33","post_date_gmt":"2024-08-22 19:23:33","post_content":"\n

American tech giant Google has recently released the Imagen 3 image generator to the public.

American tech giant Google has recently released the Imagen 3 image generator to the public.

The Imagen 3 was originally announced<\/a> during the Google I\/O event in May. Like other similar AI models, Imagen 3 generates images from text prompts.

Google has unveiled a new feature for its flagship AI model called Gemini Live. The announcement came during the recently concluded<\/a> \u201cMade By Google\u201d event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGemini Live is the most natural way to interact with Gemini. Now you can have free-flowing conversations with Gemini\u201d<\/em>, the company stated during their keynote speech<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gemini Live allows users to freely converse with Gemini. The AI will respond in real-time to offer solutions or generate answers to a given question. Users can interrupt the AI mid-response to change the topic or explore a particular point further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gemini Live also works in the background or when the phone is locked. So, users can continue chatting with the AI while performing other tasks. Users can choose from 10 different voices for their Gemini model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google hopes this feature will be able to replicate real-life conversations, making the user experience more natural and satisfying. The company has also claimed that it has completely integrated Gemini to the Android user experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Samsung has unveiled 2 new smartwatches that harness the power of the company's
proprietary Galaxy AI. The news came during the recently concluded Samsung Unpacked<\/a> event held in Paris.

\u201cBuilt to push boundaries, Galaxy Watch Ultra withstands up to 55\u00b0C heat, 9,000m altitude, 10 ATM water pressure and runs smoothly through it all with a new, powerful 3nm processor.\u201d <\/em>reads the official page on Sa<\/a>msung\u2019s website.

The watch utilizes several Bioactive sensors to track vital signs of users such as sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, body composition, and more. The data is then analyzed by Galaxy AI to generate an energy score, which offers insight into the user's daily activities. Users will need the latest Samsung Health App on a compatible Android device (Android 11 or above) to unlock the full features.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is made with titanium and sapphire crystals and comes in 3 different
colors. It has a 590 mAh battery that can last between 60-80 hours depending on usage.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is currently available in one version for $649.99. The Galaxy Watch 7

Google has unveiled a new feature for its flagship AI model called Gemini Live. The announcement came during the recently concluded<\/a> \u201cMade By Google\u201d event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGemini Live is the most natural way to interact with Gemini. Now you can have free-flowing conversations with Gemini\u201d<\/em>, the company stated during their keynote speech<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gemini Live allows users to freely converse with Gemini. The AI will respond in real-time to offer solutions or generate answers to a given question. Users can interrupt the AI mid-response to change the topic or explore a particular point further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gemini Live also works in the background or when the phone is locked. So, users can continue chatting with the AI while performing other tasks. Users can choose from 10 different voices for their Gemini model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google hopes this feature will be able to replicate real-life conversations, making the user experience more natural and satisfying. The company has also claimed that it has completely integrated Gemini to the Android user experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, Gemini Live is available only to Gemini Advanced subscribers and is only available in English.

Samsung has unveiled 2 new smartwatches that harness the power of the company's
proprietary Galaxy AI. The news came during the recently concluded Samsung Unpacked<\/a> event held in Paris.

\u201cBuilt to push boundaries, Galaxy Watch Ultra withstands up to 55\u00b0C heat, 9,000m altitude, 10 ATM water pressure and runs smoothly through it all with a new, powerful 3nm processor.\u201d <\/em>reads the official page on Sa<\/a>msung\u2019s website.

Along with several other products, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Ultra Watch and the Galaxy and the Galaxy Watch 7 to much anticipation. Industry experts are calling it a direct rival to Apple's smartwatches, with many noting the similarities between the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new smartwatches follow Samsung's approach to making holistic health-related products such as the Galaxy Ring. The watch utilizes several Bioactive sensors to track vital signs of users such as sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, body composition, and more. The data is then analyzed by Galaxy AI to generate an energy score, which offers insight into the user's daily activities. Users will need the latest Samsung Health App on a compatible Android device (Android 11 or above) to unlock the full features.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is made with titanium and sapphire crystals and comes in 3 different
colors. It has a 590 mAh battery that can last between 60-80 hours depending on usage.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is currently available in one version for $649.99. The Galaxy Watch 7
comes in two sizes: 40 mm for $299.99 and 44 mm for $329.99. The watches with LTE support will cost a further $50.<\/p>\n","post_title":"From Samsung Unpacked: Samsung Brings AI To Fashion With 2 New Smart Watches","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"from-samsung-unpacked-samsung-brings-ai-to-fashion-with-2-new-smart-watches","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-10 18:30:34","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-10 08:30:34","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18078","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};

Users will need the latest Samsung Health App on a compatible Android device (Android 11 or above) to unlock the full features.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is made with titanium and sapphire crystals and comes in 3 different
colors. It has a 590 mAh battery that can last between 60-80 hours depending on usage.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is currently available in one version for $649.99. The Galaxy Watch 7

\u201cWe will begin training for AI at Meta using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram in the UK over the coming months\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company has stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta, the company behind Facebook, intends to use social media posts in the UK to train its generative AI models. This will allow Meta\u2019s AI product to \u201creflect British culture, history, and idioms\u201d. The company believes this will facilitate the adoption of generative AI technology by UK businesses and industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will begin training for AI at Meta using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram in the UK over the coming months\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company has stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta, the company behind Facebook, intends to use social media posts in the UK to train its generative AI models. This will allow Meta\u2019s AI product to \u201creflect British culture, history, and idioms\u201d. The company believes this will facilitate the adoption of generative AI technology by UK businesses and industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will begin training for AI at Meta using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram in the UK over the coming months\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company has stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social media company YouTube has announced its plan to integrate generative AI into YouTube Shorts. In a blog post, YouTube confirmed that users will be able to use Google\u2019s VEO to create backgrounds for their Shorts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll start integrating Google DeepMind's most capable model for generating video, Veo, into YouTube Shorts later this year<\/em><\/strong>\u201d, the post stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google also confirmed<\/a> this development, stating. \u201cOver the next few months, we\u2019re bringing our advanced generative AI models, Veo and Imagen 3, to YouTube creators through Dream Screen\u201d<\/em><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, YouTube introduced Dream Screen, an AI tool that allows users to create backgrounds for short content via text prompts. With the integration of VEO, the company claims users will be able to generate \u201ceven more incredible video backgrounds\u201d and visualize improbable concepts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

See Related:<\/em><\/strong> From Samsung Unpacked: Samsung Brings AI To Fashion With 2 New Smart Watches<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, YouTube plans to add a feature that can generate 6-second video clips with the help of VEO. The AI will create images in 4 images in different styles from a single text prompt. Users can then choose one of the images and the AI will create a 6-second clip with the same art style. However, this feature will not be available until 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The videos generated with the help of AI will have a watermark created by SynthID, another one of Google\u2019s creations. YouTube also plans on labeling Shorts that feature AI-generated content.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Youtube Shorts To Harness The Power Of Generative AI By Integrating Google\u2019s VEO Video Generator","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"youtube-shorts-to-harness-the-power-of-generative-ai-by-integrating-googles-veo-video-generator","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-25 19:56:29","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-25 09:56:29","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18870","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18746,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-09-21 04:11:53","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-20 18:11:53","post_content":"\n

Meta, the company behind Facebook, intends to use social media posts in the UK to train its generative AI models. This will allow Meta\u2019s AI product to \u201creflect British culture, history, and idioms\u201d. The company believes this will facilitate the adoption of generative AI technology by UK businesses and industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will begin training for AI at Meta using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram in the UK over the coming months\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company has stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta states it has \u201cengaged positively with the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) and welcomes the constructive approach that the ICO has taken\u201d.<\/em> Meta added that the guidance provided by the ICO would help form the basis for \u201clegitimate interests\u201d, allowing the company to collect certain first-party data.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta also clarified what data they will collect from users. The company said, \u201cWe do not use people\u2019s private messages with friends and family to train for AI at Meta, and we do not use information from accounts of people in the UK under the age of 18. We\u2019ll use public information \u2013 such as public posts and comments, or public photos and captions\u201d<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of this program, adult users of FaceBook and Instagram in the UK will receive notifications about the data mining process, including access to an objection form. Meta claims it will not contact any user who submits an objection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Meta To Implement Controversial Plan To Use Social Media Posts To Train Generative AI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"meta-to-implement-controversial-plan-to-use-social-media-posts-to-train-generative-ai","to_ping":"","pinged":"\nhttps:\/\/about.fb.com\/news\/2024\/09\/building-ai-technology-for-the-uk-in-a-responsible-and-transparent-way\/","post_modified":"2024-09-21 04:12:00","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-20 18:12:00","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18746","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18622,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-09-14 20:21:09","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-14 10:21:09","post_content":"\n

Meta, the company behind Facebook, intends to use social media posts in the UK to train its generative AI models. This will allow Meta\u2019s AI product to \u201creflect British culture, history, and idioms\u201d. The company believes this will facilitate the adoption of generative AI technology by UK businesses and industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will begin training for AI at Meta using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram in the UK over the coming months\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company has stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta also clarified what data they will collect from users. The company said, \u201cWe do not use people\u2019s private messages with friends and family to train for AI at Meta, and we do not use information from accounts of people in the UK under the age of 18. We\u2019ll use public information \u2013 such as public posts and comments, or public photos and captions\u201d<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of this program, adult users of FaceBook and Instagram in the UK will receive notifications about the data mining process, including access to an objection form.

As part of this treaty, both companies have identified five key areas: the development of customized AI solutions for Korea, delivering Korean sovereign cloud solutions, the establishment of an AI transformation (AX) specialized service company, the advancement of AI R&D capabilities across Korea, and KT\u2019s AICT transformation.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first of these, the companies will develop customized versions of GPT-4o and Microsoft\u2019s Phi family of small language models. KT Corporation will provide the necessary data to train the AI models on Korean culture and industries. Additionally, there is a plan to launch a sovereign cloud service in Korea using Microsoft Cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking on the potential this pact holds for AI in Korea, KT CEO Young-Shub Kim said, \u201cThe partnership with Microsoft presents a pivotal opportunity, not only for technological collaboration but also for expanding Korea\u2019s AI foundation and driving transformative innovation across industries and daily life\u201d<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CEO of Microsoft also shared this sentiment, stating, \u201cTogether, we will help accelerate the AI transformation of Korean organizations across the private and public sectors.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","post_title":"Microsoft And KT Corporation Announce Multi-Billion Dollar Partnership To Develop AI In Korea","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"microsoft-and-kt-corporation-announce-multi-billion-dollar-partnership-to-develop-ai-in-korea","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-10-02 19:39:12","post_modified_gmt":"2024-10-02 09:39:12","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18928","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18870,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-09-25 19:56:24","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-25 09:56:24","post_content":"\n

Social media company YouTube has announced its plan to integrate generative AI into YouTube Shorts. In a blog post, YouTube confirmed that users will be able to use Google\u2019s VEO to create backgrounds for their Shorts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll start integrating Google DeepMind's most capable model for generating video, Veo, into YouTube Shorts later this year<\/em><\/strong>\u201d, the post stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google also confirmed<\/a> this development, stating. \u201cOver the next few months, we\u2019re bringing our advanced generative AI models, Veo and Imagen 3, to YouTube creators through Dream Screen\u201d<\/em><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, YouTube introduced Dream Screen, an AI tool that allows users to create backgrounds for short content via text prompts. With the integration of VEO, the company claims users will be able to generate \u201ceven more incredible video backgrounds\u201d and visualize improbable concepts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta, the company behind Facebook, intends to use social media posts in the UK to train its generative AI models. This will allow Meta\u2019s AI product to \u201creflect British culture, history, and idioms\u201d. The company believes this will facilitate the adoption of generative AI technology by UK businesses and industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will begin training for AI at Meta using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram in the UK over the coming months\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company has stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur strategic partnership brings together KT\u2019s industry expertise with the power of our entire tech stack, from Azure AI to Microsoft 365 Copilot\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, said Satya Nadella, Chairman and CEO of Microsoft, in a press release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agreement Between Microsoft And KT Corporation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

News of an agreement between Microsoft and KT Corporation came in June 2024. On Sunday, Microsoft released a statement<\/a> confirming the deal, which will see KT Corporation substantially invest in Artificial Intelligence (AI), cloud technologies, and IT business. In return, Microsoft will provide the necessary resources such as infrastructure and manpower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of this treaty, both companies have identified five key areas: the development of customized AI solutions for Korea, delivering Korean sovereign cloud solutions, the establishment of an AI transformation (AX) specialized service company, the advancement of AI R&D capabilities across Korea, and KT\u2019s AICT transformation.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first of these, the companies will develop customized versions of GPT-4o and Microsoft\u2019s Phi family of small language models. KT Corporation will provide the necessary data to train the AI models on Korean culture and industries. Additionally, there is a plan to launch a sovereign cloud service in Korea using Microsoft Cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking on the potential this pact holds for AI in Korea, KT CEO Young-Shub Kim said, \u201cThe partnership with Microsoft presents a pivotal opportunity, not only for technological collaboration but also for expanding Korea\u2019s AI foundation and driving transformative innovation across industries and daily life\u201d<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, YouTube plans to add a feature that can generate 6-second video clips with the help of VEO. The AI will create images in 4 images in different styles from a single text prompt. Users can then choose one of the images and the AI will create a 6-second clip with the same art style. However, this feature will not be available until 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The videos generated with the help of AI will have a watermark created by SynthID, another one of Google\u2019s creations. YouTube also plans on labeling Shorts that feature AI-generated content.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Youtube Shorts To Harness The Power Of Generative AI By Integrating Google\u2019s VEO Video Generator","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"youtube-shorts-to-harness-the-power-of-generative-ai-by-integrating-googles-veo-video-generator","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-09-25 19:56:29","post_modified_gmt":"2024-09-25 09:56:29","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=18870","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18746,"post_author":"17","post_date":"2024-09-21 04:11:53","post_date_gmt":"2024-09-20 18:11:53","post_content":"\n

Meta, the company behind Facebook, intends to use social media posts in the UK to train its generative AI models. This will allow Meta\u2019s AI product to \u201creflect British culture, history, and idioms\u201d. The company believes this will facilitate the adoption of generative AI technology by UK businesses and industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will begin training for AI at Meta using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram in the UK over the coming months\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company has stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta, the company behind Facebook, intends to use social media posts in the UK to train its generative AI models. This will allow Meta\u2019s AI product to \u201creflect British culture, history, and idioms\u201d. The company believes this will facilitate the adoption of generative AI technology by UK businesses and industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta, the company behind Facebook, intends to use social media posts in the UK to train its generative AI models. This will allow Meta\u2019s AI product to \u201creflect British culture, history, and idioms\u201d. The company believes this will facilitate the adoption of generative AI technology by UK businesses and industries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe will begin training for AI at Meta using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram in the UK over the coming months\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the company has stated<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was originally announced in 2023 but soon met significant backlash owing to security and privacy concerns. Various groups such as the Open Rights Group (ORG) and None of Your Business (NOYB) opposed such an initiative<\/a>. It was subsequently halted by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) in the United Kingdom. This plan has also been banned in the EU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
