This means Whole Foods Market customers who choose to use Amazon One will no longer need their wallet or even a phone to pay—they can simply hover their palm over an Amazon One device. For Prime members who link their Amazon One profile with their Amazon account, savings will automatically be applied. Source - Amazon

Today, we’re showcasing CM3leon (pronounced like “chameleon”), a single foundation model that does both text-to-image and image-to-text generation. CM3leon is the first multimodal model trained with a recipe adapted from text-only language models, including a large-scale retrieval-augmented pre-training stage and a second multitask supervised fine-tuning (SFT) stage. Source - Meta Techcrunch added some further insights into this here. It'll be interesting to see how Meta continues to compete in the AI space.

China has set up a new government body that will be responsible for implementing a national standard for large language models (LLMs) – representing the technology used to train artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots like ChatGPT – as Beijing seeks to minimise potential disruption from this field, while harnessing its power to help transform traditional industries. The China Electronic Standardisation Institute, which is under the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), is currently in the process of enacting a local standard for LLMs to support the growing number of fresh AI development initiatives now under way across the mainland, the agency announced on Friday at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai....

We are working to bring the beta back as quickly as possible, and appreciate your understanding! Source: OpenAI Seems like OpenAI has disabled the beta feature that was available to ChatGPT Plus subscribers which allowed ChatGPT to browse the web via URLs given to it. This could sometimes allow it bypass paywalls and privacy settings. It's definitely still a continuous process of improvement and refinement.

Historically, every new technology that matters, from electric lighting to automobiles to radio to the Internet, has sparked a moral panic – a social contagion that convinces people the new technology is going to destroy the world, or society, or both. The fine folks at Pessimists Archive have documented these technology-driven moral panics over the decades; their history makes the pattern vividly clear....

Apple gave us a glimpse of its iCloud.com redesign last month, and now the redesign is officially available to everybody. The new dashboard view feels a lot more useful than the previous design, and you can tell that there have been some subtle refinements. Apple will need to continue to refine and improve its web services to compete with competing services such as Google and Microsoft that provide really robust and functional web services, but this is definitely a (small) step in the right direction.

The only apps I have that are larger than 1 GB are video editing apps, DAWs, Adobe apps, and Microsoft apps. These should (arguably) require more space.
