AI Update: Anthropic Drops Free Claude 3.5 Sonnet

Holy smokes, folks. The AI arms race is heating up faster than a microwave burrito.

Anthropic just unleashed their latest AI beast: Claude 3.5 Sonnet. And it's free!

Key deets:

  • Outperforms GPT-4o and Gemini across most benchmarks

  • 2x faster than previous Claude models

  • Crushing it on code, multistep tasks, and visual interpretation

The real kicker is Anthropic's new "Artifacts" feature. Design with Claude, then tweak it in the app—no more copy-paste limbo.

This hints at Anthropic's vision: Claude as a business knowledge hub. Think Notion meets Slack with an AI brain.

For logistics and supply chain? These models are getting scarily good at complex planning. AI co-pilots for route optimization and demand forecasting might be closer than you think.

Tokyo researchers just dropped a mind-bender: human-like robots driving cars.

  • Musashi robot mimics human movements and senses

  • Can operate steering, gas, and brakes

  • Learns from experience and reacts to road conditions

Why it matters: It could be an alternative to empty-seat self-driving. Robo-drivers might ease your autonomous anxiety, but not mine!

Apple / Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, kicks off Apple WWDC 2024

Apple's serving up a buffet:

  • Siri 2.0: Smarter, more natural, remembers context

  • AI writing tools in Mail, Messages, Notes

  • "Genmojis" and image generation playground

  • Photos get AI-powered search and editing

  • Privacy-focused with on-device and "Private Cloud Compute"

The kicker: OpenAI partnership brings ChatGPT to Siri

The bottom line is that Apple's late to the AI party, but they brought the good stuff.

Drama alert: Musk redirected 12,000 Nvidia AI chips from Tesla to X.

The scoop:

  • Internal emails show Musk prioritized X and xAI over Tesla

  • Contradicts public statements about Tesla's AI spending

  • Musk claims Tesla had no place to install chips (yet)

Why it matters: Probably nothing long-term, but critics are side-eyeing Musk's priorities.

Keep your popcorn handy, folks!

Prompt of the Week

  • Step into the mind of a best-in-class logistics director.

Imagine you are a seasoned logistics director with over 15 years of experience at a Fortune 500 company known for its cutting-edge supply chain management. You hold an MBA from Harvard Business School and a Master's in Supply Chain Management from MIT. Your expertise spans global logistics, inventory optimization, and digital transformation in supply chains.

New Feature: ChatGPT's Memory Function

OpenAI's ChatGPT has introduced a new recall feature that allows it to save and remember information you share. It’s a handy, time-saving feature. I’ve noticed this functionality to be very helpful, primarily if you frequently use LLMs for similar tasks.

How to Use ChatGPT's Memory Feature

Save Information

  • Example: "ChatGPT, remember I work in logistics procurement."

Recall Information

  • Example: "What field of work am I in?"

  • ChatGPT will respond with the saved information (logistics procurement)

Update Information

  • Example: "ChatGPT, update my favorite color to green."

Delete Information

  • Example: "ChatGPT, forget my favorite color."

These steps make ChatGPT a more personalized and efficient assistant, enhancing your experience by remembering and utilizing the information you provide.

That's all for this week's AI for 30. Your engagement truly makes a difference in our shared AI adventure. Keep learning, keep exploring, and until next time, may your curiosity lead you to extraordinary places!

Cheers,

Will
