Executive Guide to Generative AI and a Powerful Reverse Image Search
A few fun links and apps in the artificial intelligence space.
Morning y’all!
Yesterday I was told that I’d be getting a paise bump based on the quality of my work and the fact that we had raised a bit of money for our AI platform from a handful of venture capitalists and angel investors — I’ll take it.
I have been working my butt off to help build their new enterprise platform that combines LLMs and Knowledge Graphs so I definitely appreciate them noticing; a good start to the week!

I had to give them my email but you don’t have to:
You’re welcome. 🥰
Apple is reportedly chatting with Meta about an integration of their technologies. This is funny since they have historically not really liked one another.
Slack’s Guide to their own AI features which is interesting because it can serve as an example of how to do a how-to or Help Desk area for AI-specific features.
Create an AI-powered course and add it to your own website.
Generate organized notes from audio using Groq, Whisper, and Llama3. Cool.
Make a professional podcast in just minutes using AI. Oh.
Using Review.Legal to get a AI legal assistant to simplify complex legal docs.
Rockset is a powerful database with indexing and querying capabilities. OpenAI has acquired the company to improve its retrieval infrastructure.
Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, and Sony Music Entertainment have filed lawsuits against Udio and Suno alleging that the startups are illegally training their AI models on copyrighted material. Surprised?
Anthropic’s CEO, Dario Amodei, chats with Time Magazine, which feels like a bit of a puff piece but has some interesting tidbits, like this on government:
One source of funding that doesn’t get talked about very much is the government. They have this scale of money—it might be politically difficult, but is that something you’ve thought about, or even had conversations about?
The technology is getting powerful enough that government should have an important role in its creation and deployment. This is not just about regulation. This is about national security. At some point, should at least some aspects of this be a national project?
I thought this article was an interesting perspective and then I read this from real developers:
I don’t use them, and in addition I actively avoid them on ethical grounds. OpenAI is a particularly egregious company, and the recent comments from their CTO Mira Murati about how “maybe some creative jobs shouldn’t have been there in the first place” should automatically disqualify the company from any usage by any creative professional ever.
Oh well.
Simple: AI-powered reverse image search, which has been strangely more useful than I had thought. And that’s it friends! Have a great rest of your day!
