2. The End? Google turns 25. The search engine revolutionised how we access information, but will it survive AI?

With the introduction of AI tools, including Google’s Bard and the recently announced Gemini (a direct competitor to ChatGPT), Google is set to revolutionise search once again. As the AI industry grows, we’re seeing a shift towards content only being accessible for a fee, or through paid subscriptions.

3. Google’s DeepMind finds 2.2M crystal structures in materials science win

Combos is >45 times larger than number unearthed in entire history of science
Google DeepMind researchers have discovered 2.2 million crystal structures that open potential progress in fields from renewable energy to advanced computation, and show the power of artificial intelligence to discover novel materials. “From microchips to batteries and photovoltaics, discovery of inorganic crystals has been bottlenecked by expensive trial-and-error approaches,” the Nature paper says. “Our work represents an order-of-magnitude expansion in stable materials known to humanity.”

4. AI multi-speaker lip-sync has arrived

With AI-powered lip-sync, 750,000 users can translate their content into 130+ languages to sound as fluent as a native speaker. For a long time, there has been a lack of synchronisation between lip movements and voices in dubbed content. Experts believe this is one of the reasons why dubbing is relatively unpopular in English-speaking countries. In fact, lip movements make localised content more realistic and therefore more appealing to audiences. [Read the full story]

EU AI Act - first regulation on artificial intelligence

EU Takes the Wheel on AI: New Rules to Tame the Tech Titans

Buckle up, tech world! The EU just shifted gears big time with its new AI Act, a mega law that’s sending ripples all the way from Brussels to Silicon Valley. It’s like setting up traffic lights in the Wild West of AI, and giants like Google and OpenAI are definitely taking notice.

So, what’s the big deal? Well, the EU, known for loving its rules, just laid down a heavy track for the AI race. They're aiming to make Europe the go-to pitstop for “trustworthy” AI, with laws that say “Hey, let’s keep it safe and respectful.” Think less Wild West, more civilized tea party.

This wasn't some overnight magic, though. Picture EU lawmakers huddled up for over 36 hours, like students cramming for finals, hashing out this landmark decision. The clock was ticking too – they wanted this baby wrapped up before everyone got distracted by the upcoming EU parliament elections.

Ursula von der Leyen, the big boss at the European Commission, is all pumped about it. She’s like, “Look at us, setting the trend for AI laws!” And truth be told, they’re not the first to the party (China beat them to it), but they’re definitely throwing the biggest bash.

Here’s the juicy part: The AI Act is like a rulebook for AI’s do’s and don'ts. It’s slapping a big “NO” on creepy tech that judges you by your face or other personal traits. And, if you’re a fan of online privacy, get this – no more scooping up faces from the net like it’s a buffet.

But hey, it’s not all restrictions. There's also a spotlight on transparency, especially for those big brainy AI models like GPT-4. The EU is like that strict teacher saying, “Show your work, kids.” And for companies playing it fast and loose? A whopping fine – up to 7% of their global turnover. Ouch.

The countdown’s already begun. Some rules hit the ground in just six months, with the full set rolling out in a couple of years.

As for the AI bigwigs, they’ve got mixed feelings. They’re all for innovation, but also like, “Let’s not stifle the new kids on the block.” Take Mistral, for instance, a French AI outfit. They’re still in the lab coat phase, so they’re off the hook for now.

But let’s talk about the real debate – should the cops use AI to play Big Brother in real-time? That was a hot potato till the very end. The final call? A bit of yes, a bit of no. Some digital rights folks aren’t thrilled, saying it’s like leaving the backdoor unlocked.

This whole shebang has echoes of the social media saga. Remember how long it took to rein in Facebook and friends? The EU doesn’t want a repeat. They’re trying to get ahead of the game this time, instead of playing catch-up.

In a nutshell, the EU just set the stage for AI’s next act. Whether it’s a blockbuster or a flop, only time will tell. But one thing's for sure – the tech titans are tuning in!
