Bullet Points:
- Apple is working on its own generative AI tool, dubbed “Apple GPT” which uses a large language model (LLM) framework called Ajax. CEO Tim Cook confirmed that Apple has incorporated AI into forthcoming iOS17 features.
- Apple is hiring researchers and engineers to work on compressing existing language models so they can run efficiently on mobile devices.
- AI password crackers like PassGAN can crack more than half of all commonly used passwords in less than a minute.
- Google is negotiating with Universal Music to create a tool for fans to create their own legitimate deep fakes of popular artists with a fee going back to the copyright holders.
- Disney has created an artificial intelligence task force to study how AI can be used across their theme parks, TV, and advertising divisions.
- IBM researchers have shown that GPT-4 can be “hypnotized” to take part in multi-layered games that saw the models leaking confidential information, generating malicious code.
- Nvidia has unveiled its GH200 super chip, which has 141GB of next-gen memory, three times the capacity of its popular H100 GPU.
- A new preprint from former Amazon AI researcher Konstantine Arkoudas analyzed GPT-4’s responses to 21 reasoning problems and concluded that GPT-4 is utterly incapable of reasoning.
- Spotify’s AI feature “DJ” is being rolled out to 50 countries.
- Goldman Sachs predicts AI investments will soar to $200 billion globally by 2025.
- Morgan Stanley is looking into concerns over an AI stock bubble.
- Researchers at Harvard and the University of Washington found that crowdsourcing business ideas from humans produced much more novel ideas than GPT-4.
- Blackberry survey found that three quarters of company IT chiefs are considering bans on ChatGPT and other LLMs for data security, privacy, and corporate reputation reasons.
- A Redditor posted an “AI-generated trailer” for a Magic 8 horror film, showcasing the potential of AI technology in the creative industry.
Apple has been working on its own generative AI tool, called “Apple GPT,” which uses the Ajax language model framework. CEO Tim Cook confirmed that AI has been incorporated into forthcoming iOS17 features like Personal Voice and Live Voicemail. Apple is also hiring researchers and engineers to work on compressing language models for mobile devices.
AI password crackers can now crack more than half of commonly used passwords in less than a minute. AI can even work out passwords purely from the sound of users typing, making passwords alone without 2FA obsolete.

Disney has also created an artificial intelligence task force to explore AI applications in their theme parks, TV, and advertising divisions.
IBM researchers have demonstrated that GPT-4 can be “hypnotized” into leaking confidential information, generating malicious code, and other manipulations. Nvidia has unveiled the GH200 super chip, which has three times the memory capacity of its popular H100 GPU. Spotify’s AI feature “DJ” is being expanded to 50 countries.

A Blackberry survey found that IT chiefs are considering bans on ChatGPT and other LLMs due to data security and privacy concerns. However, only 21% of organizations have implemented policies on generative AI so far. A Redditor created an impressive AI-generated trailer for a Magic 8 horror film, showcasing the potential of AI in creative industries.
