First up, it’s a new newsletter from our friend and director Raymond Sun, this is focusing on AI and regulation so check it out here https://techieray.substack.com/

Great to see our friends in the news and this time it was Nataliya Ilyushina form RMIT talking about the latest AI safety regulations paper shared by Minister Ed Husic last week https://www.linkedin.com/posts/dr-nataliya-ilyushina_drpink-ai-regulation-activity-7155099724910346242-jXhE?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_android

Nataliya (mentioned earlier) and another friend of ours, Olga Bubnova also have an upcoming event for business leaders https://www.linkedin.com/posts/dr-nataliya-ilyushina_ai-data-marketing-activity-7150989324035964928-5Cj0?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

Also great to see one of the Builders Club members, Becca Williams getting her first paid subscriber to her newsletter. Check that out here

Check out this great piece of research on the ASPIRE model from Google which showcases self-evaluation self-correcting prompts

Old but worth covering that Polygon and Fox teamed up to produce a way to verify content belonging to the broadcaster online. Great to see blockchain helping AI as we know it can

Pretty revolutionary (can we even say that anymore with how it keeps getting used) from Google here in terms of what they can do with video, check out Lumiere https://twitter.com/heyshrutimishra/status/1750492116109996496

Great piece from The Chainsaw showing AI uptake at work and across the states (and even generations, millennials are leading the way) https://thechainsaw.com/defi/ai-job-aussies-secretly-spending-700-to-save-time/

Really interesting company coming out of a recent raise is Prompt Security, and it’s no surprise to see something like this given the influx of prompt injection attacks https://techcrunch.com/2024/01/24/prompt-security-wants-to-make-genai-safe-for-the-enterprise/

At NotCentralised, we wrote about some of this when it was first coming up https://medium.com/notcentralised/prompt-injection-vulnerabilities-in-ai-models-35f20bc89ee6

The amazing Matt Wolfe provides this update of what’s going on in the AI app market this time including tools for improving your LinkedIn impact, Google AI custom themes, Eleven Labs and more.

Stay curious and informed as we navigate the fascinating world of AI together!
