👀 Instagram's AI Bot Leak

Fresh information unveiled by Alessandro Paluzzi on Twitter implies that Instagram could be in the process of developing an AI chatbot. These revelations hint that users might be able to choose from a diverse range of 30 AI personalities to seek advice or answers to their queries.

Of note, fellow social media platforms such as Snapchat have already encountered significant hurdles with their AI chatbots, grappling with issues such as inappropriate responses and restrained functionality.

Yet, details regarding the AI model and the precise features of the prospective chatbot remain undisclosed. Instagram has not officially commented on these speculations, neither confirming nor dismissing them.

On a related note, there are murmurs about Instagram possibly working on a rival platform to Twitter, currently under the codename 'Barcelona'.

🤖 Glean's New Enterprise Bot

Glean, having recently secured a whopping $100M in funding, thereby attaining a valuation of $1B, has unveiled their latest product: Glean Chat. This advanced tool is an enterprise-level generative AI chat assistant, purpose-built to offer precise answers and actionable insights for all your work-related questions.

Glean Chat's capabilities include:

  • The ability to analyze documents across multiple platforms such as Slack, Drive, Gmail, Office, and others.

  • Synthesizing valuable insights drawn from data gathered across the enterprise.

  • Providing answers to any question based on the information available within the organization.

  • Glean emphasizes its commitment to data privacy. The company assures that it does not utilize internal data for training its algorithms, accessing only those documents that have been explicitly permitted.

In essence, Glean Chat is akin to ChatGPT, but specifically designed to interact with your organization's internal information, transforming it into a powerful resource for your workplace.

🔮 Tafi's Text-to-3D Reveal

Tafi has recently unveiled a revolutionary text-to-3D character engine, set to redefine the creative workflows of artists, developers, and other industry professionals.
