FACT OF THE DAY

🤔 According to Deloitte, 70% of the US population prefer to watch TV shows and films written by humans, rather than AI, but 28% (mostly millennials) feel that AI could write more interesting TV shows and films than humans.

STOCK MARKETS

🤷 AI and tech stocks shrugged off news of the potential escalation of the war between Russia and Ukraine. NVIDIA was the out-performer on the day, rising nearly 5% on the day before it released earnings. Analysts are expecting strong revenue and a significant backlog of orders. Learn more.

ADVANCEMENTS

🧠 Google’s Gemini has a memory

Our Report: Google’s chatbot, Gemini, can now “remember the things you care about” like your work and personal preferences, making its responses more targeted and relevant.

🔑 Key Points:

• Users can share their interests and preferences while chatting with Gemini, or by adding them to “saved interests, and Gemini will remember them and use them to deliver tailored responses, without repeating the same details.

• Gemini will say when it incorporates users' information in its responses, and users can view edit, or delete their saved data, but all saved information will be stored indefinitely unless it's manually deleted.

• The memory feature is currently just available, in English, for subscribers on a Google One AI Premium subscription, and Google has established that users' “memories” will not be used for training.

🤔 Why you should care: Google’s latest advancement comes after OpenAI rolled out a similar memory feature for ChatGPT in April, and Microsoft recently revealed they’d achieved "near-infinite" memory in recent prototypes, meaning its AI chatbot—Copilot—can maintain context and remember details indefinitely, (something which Gemini and ChatGPT can’t quite do yet) but there is potential for these memory features to be exploited if there aren’t proper guardrails in place, as a security researcher recently discovered when he found he was able to plant false memories into ChatGPT and steal user's data.

COMPETITION

⚖️ Google + Anthropic: Antitrust verdict is in

Our Report: The UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has dropped its probe into Google’s partnership with AI rival Anthropic, concluding that it doesn’t qualify for further investigation, under current merger rules.

🔑 Key Points:

• Last month, the CMA announced it was launching a stage 1 probe into Google’s relationship with Anthropic, after it (reportedly) invested $550M into the startup in October last year, followed by another $2B one year later.

• They were concerned that Google was embarking on a “quasi-merger” (where big tech companies invest in startups and exert influence at a board level) with Anthropic and worried that this would stifle competition.

• But, after a month-long investigation, they found that “The available evidence did not indicate that Google has the ability to exercise material influence over Anthropic through the partnership.”

🤔 Why you should care: Google is just one of many big tech companies to fall under scrutiny from competition regulators for their sizable investments/control in AI startups—potentially undermining fair competition—for example, Amazon was investigated after it invested $4M into Anthropic last year (but was subsequently cleared by the CMA) and Microsoft's investments into OpenAI continue to be investigated.

VOICE

🗣️ Microsoft Teams clones voices

• Microsoft has revealed a new AI ‘Interpreter’ tool that allows Teams users to create a clone of their voice and use it to speak in real-time or translate what they’re saying into a different language.

• Available in 2025 to Microsoft365 subscribers, it will help global teams connect as it will incorporate 9 different languages, including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese.

• This is likely to raise security concerns as a recent study into OpenAI’s AI translation tool—Whisper—found it was inventing phrases when translating clinical patient data, meaning these tools are prone to hallucinations.

GEOSPATIAL MODELS

🎮 Pokeman powers breakthrough AI model?

• Niantic Labs—maker of Pokémon Go—is building a Large Geospatial Model (LGM) that will transform how we navigate the physical world, using scans collected from players of Pokémon Go and other mobile games.

• Instead of processing text, like ChatGPT, Niantic’s LGM will process physical spaces using the geolocated images collected by players who have scanned various locations, while playing (users capture ~1M scans p/w).

• The model leverages over 10M scanned locations, allowing Niantic to build 3D maps of the world “including 3D geometry (the shape of things) and semantic understanding (what things are, eg. the ground, sky, trees).”
