It\u2019s a day of reality catching up with the chatbot boom. In the last 24 hours alone, we\u2019ve had hoaxes, FTC complaints and\u2026 ads. Hooray. We\u2019ll get into how Microsoft is bringing ads to its Bing chatbot \u2013 bound to happen \u2013 while OpenAI may have to halt ChatGPT releases<\/a> in the face of FTC complaints.<\/p>\n

The nonprofit research organization, Center for AI and Digital Policy (CAIDP), says OpenAI\u2019s models are “biased, deceptive” and threaten privacy and public safety. The CAIDP says OpenAI also fails to meet Commission guidelines calling for AI to be transparent, fair and easy to explain. There’s no guarantee the FTC will act on the complaint. If it does set requirements, though, the move would affect development across the AI industry.<\/p>\n

Microsoft explains how ads will happen in Bing’s AI chatbot<\/a><\/h2>\n

Ah, the end of the fun.<\/h3>\n

Over the past few days, users have reported seeing ads inside Microsoft\u2019s Bing chatbot experience. Based on the limited examples we’ve seen, the GPT-4-powered chatbot embeds relevant ad links in response to users’ actual questions. Ads don’t seem to appear for most people (including us) yet, but they’ll most likely pop up more frequently and in more places soon. In a post on the Bing blog, Microsoft Corporate VP for Search and Devices Yusuf Mehd, explained that ads would come in the form of a linked citation, along with additional links in a “Learn More” section below Bing’s response to their query. In the future, Microsoft could add functionality where hovering over a link from an advertiser would display more links from its website to drive more traffic to it.<\/p>\n

The tool had been used to fake images of Trump and the Pope, among others.<\/h3>\n

Midjourney CEO, David Holz, announced on Discord that the company is ending free trials due to “extraordinary demand and trial abuse.” New safeguards haven’t been “sufficient,” and you’ll have to pay at least $10 per month to use the image generator going forward. As The Washington Post <\/em>reported, Midjourney has picked up unwanted attention in recent weeks. Users relied on the company’s AI to build deepfakes of Donald Trump being arrested, and Pope Francis wearing a trendy coat.<\/p>\n

Polestar 3 first look<\/a><\/h2>\n

Possibly the best-looking EV of the year.<\/h3>\n
<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Polestar 3 was recently showcased in New York for its North American debut, so we had to check it out. It might just be the best-looking new SUV in 2023. The Polestar 3 is built on the same platform as the Volvo EX90, but the company has made some significant changes that ensure there won\u2019t be confusion between the two. Instead of three rows of seats, the Polestar 3 maxes out at two, with slightly less rear storage in favor of a more spacious cabin.<\/p>\n

A new Twitter clone is trying to seduce original blue checkmark owners<\/a><\/h2>\n

T2 is led by former Twitter employees who want to recreate Twitter\u2019s \u201cpublic square.\u201d<\/h3>\n

With \u201clegacy\u201d Twitter checkmarks about to disappear (tomorrow!), one Twitter alternative hopes to lure some of those OG verified users to its platform. T2, an invite-only service led by two former Twitter employees, says it will allow accounts to carry over their \u201clegacy\u201d Twitter verification to its site. T2 is part of a growing crop of Twitter alternatives that have sprung up after Musk\u2019s takeover. Founder Gabor Cselle has been clear that he intends to create \u201ca pretty straightforward copy of Twitter with some simplifications\u201d.<\/p>\n

Netflix is testing TV games that use phones as controllers<\/a><\/h2>\n

Hidden code references games on TV in the Netflix app.<\/h3>\n

Netflix might have started (or is at least looking to start) testing games for TV, based on code within its app that developer Steve Moser shared with Bloomberg. Moser reportedly found hidden references to games played on television, as well as additional code that indicates the possibility of using phones as controllers to play them. One line from within the app apparently reads: “A game on your TV needs a controller to play. Do you want to use this phone as a game controller?” The streaming giant launched several games on Android, iPhones and iPads in 2021, but on the Netflix app for TV, these games were notably absent.<\/p>\n
