Artificial intelligence has had an important week. This week has undoubtedly been one of the most important weeks for AI since the launch of ChatGPT last year.
Artificial intelligence has had an important week
According to CNN, the company OpenAI (OpenAI) unveiled the latest version of its technology, which is the basis of the popular chatbots of GPT chat. Elon Musk announced the arrival of a competitor to GPT chat called Grok, which will be added to his social platform X (formerly Twitter).
A Senate subcommittee on artificial intelligence regulations in the health care space was held in a targeted attack against OpenAI and the first artificial intelligence wearable device that aims to one day replace smartphones.
ABI Research analyst Reece Hayden says: These important cases indicate the speed of growth of the artificial intelligence market.
Hayden noted that this week was an example of what’s happening in the industry. The AI community strives to maintain innovation and competitiveness by balancing speed and momentum.
“Overall, it was a big week,” Hayden added.
Next, we take a closer look at everything that happened in this important week for artificial intelligence.
Open Eye’s big day
OpenAI hosted its first developer conference about a year after unveiling GPT Chat, which helped renew competition among tech companies to develop and deploy similar AI tools in their products.
The company unveiled a series of updates to its AI tools, including the ability for developers to create custom versions of GPT Chat, called GPT. GPTs can connect to databases, be used in emails, or facilitate e-commerce orders. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman demonstrated in minutes how easy it is for anyone with no coding experience to create a GPT.
The company is also developing a GPT Store that will launch later this month to make GPTs searchable. Similar to other app stores, the company lists useful tools in categories such as productivity, education, and “just for fun.”
Altman also demonstrated the GPT-4 Turbo, the latest version of the technology that is GPT Chat. He said it can now support entries equal to about 300 pages of a standard book, about 16 times more than the previous model.

Altman also shared more information about the platform’s growth, saying that there are currently about two million developers using the platform, and about 90 percent of Fortune 500 companies use internal tools. JPT chat currently has 100 million active users.
Artificial intelligence wearable device
Humane, a startup founded by former Apple employees, has introduced its first artificial intelligence wearable device called Ai Pin. This little flashing gadget attaches to clothing. This company plans to eventually replace smartphones by displaying information on the user’s hand and providing the ability to answer phone calls and perform various tasks without holding a smartphone.

The company also said that AI Pin is equipped with artificial intelligence and has capabilities such as searching, sending messages, and managing clutter of emails.
Running on a Snapdragon processor and powered by Qualcomm’s AI engine, the AI Pin has depth and motion sensors, an ultra-wide camera, and a laser ink display.
Arun Chandrasekaran, an analyst at Gartner, said the unveiling marks a “significant step forward in designing forward-looking hardware” for manufacturers and exploring a potentially new way of human-vehicle interaction.
Although the company promises an all-day battery, Hayden says the biggest challenge to deploying AI on a device is battery life. Given that this device is so small, it will be interesting to see if the battery life is decent.
There are other concerns as well. “Always-on artificial intelligence that collects and processes data will truly gain the full trust of a community, which is unlikely to happen now,” Hayden says.
AIPIN, which starts at $699, will be available in the US on Thursday, November 16.
Grok
X Ai announced in a blog post that it was inspired by a book called The Free Traveler’s Guide to the Galaxy, a science fiction comedy novel by British author Douglas Adams. Grok answers questions with a bit of humor and has a rebellious streak, so please don’t use it if you hate humor.

Elon Musk’s XAI startup has unveiled a chatbot called Grok for some X users, which he says has a sarcastic sense of humor similar to his own. Musk, has owned X (former Twitter) since a year ago. Grok, he says, learns by having “instant access” to the platform’s information.
Musk said Grok is still in the early stages of testing but will soon be added to the Premium X service in the US. This service includes features like Blue Tick for $16 per month.
Musk is a co-founder of OpenEye but stepped down five years ago in part due to disagreements over how to lead the company.
A targeted attack
Two days after the developer conference, OpenAI experienced widespread service outages, which it later attributed to possible targeted attacks on its servers. The company wrote on its website Wednesday evening that it was “dealing with periodic outages due to an unusual traffic pattern that reflects an attack.”
A DDoS attack, or a denial of service attack, usually refers to flooding an Internet server with users to disrupt normal traffic.
Users were unable to access all OpenAI tools and services on Wednesday and received a message that the platform was full.
The company told CNN that no user information was compromised.
More information about artificial intelligence
Big tech companies are also continuing to double down on AI investments. Reuters reported that Amazon has invested millions of dollars to train an artificial intelligence called Olympus.
In addition, YouTube is testing artificial intelligence tools that answer questions about content, make recommendations, and summarize topics in the comments section of videos.
