The New York Daily News, Chicago Tribune and other publications are taking on OpenAI and Microsoft
Eight US newspapers, including the New York Daily News, sued OpenAI and Microsoft for alleged copyright infringement, claiming they are using their copyrighted material to create artificial intelligence models. They have asked for an “excessive amount” of money and a stop to the practice of using their copyrighted work. They also demanded the destruction of any models using their work.
Llama 3 beats many other models, according to Meta
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has said that Meta AI will be able to open source its 400-billion-parameter version of its artificial intelligence chatbot ‘Llama 3’ since it’s still being trained. “I think we’ll be able to open source it,” he added. “I don’t think that today many people really think about Meta AI when they think about the main AI assistants,” Zuckerberg further said.
A new bill seeks to reveal what is hidden in the training data
The US Congress on Tuesday introduced a bill to protect copyrighted material used in artificial intelligence (AI) training.

There is proof you are able to train an artificial intelligence model
Apple engineers have created an artificial intelligence (AI) model for text, images, and chatbots called MM1. It’s designed to work with a wide range of data, including text, images and videos. MM1 is measured by a number of parameters, such as internal variables that get adjusted as it is trained. The model works on a user’s text as well as images.
But not to win, the new artificial intelligence will play video games with you
Google has created an artificial intelligence (AI) system, called SimA, that will be able to “learn to do random things in games and videos”.

SIMA is being used to control Goat Simulator-3, a video game where players can take their domesticated ungulates on wild adventures.
The fear that led to the creation of OpenAI is what inspired it
Elon Musk-led AI startup OpenAI said that it has received $1 billion funding commitment for its “deeply artificial intelligence (DIA) research”. This comes after Co-founder Aaron Altman was ousted from OpenAI’s board for his alleged conflict of interest and involvement in a dispute with another board member. Altman has also apologised for thinking that a former board member was harming OpenAI.
