Exciting AI News Roundup
January AI News
All the Latest Updates
Well, I couldn’t be more excited because AI news is really ramping up in January! It’s been a fairly slow month, but this week we’ve got announcements from Google, Microsoft, Apple, YouTube, and more. A lot is happening in the world of AI right now, and it seems like this year is going to be no different. Let’s break it down, starting with the fact that we just got Gemini Ultra from Google.
Google is completely moving away from the BERT brand and going all-in on Gemini with all of their AI products. In fact, if you go to gemini.google.com now, you can see the new Gemini Advanced model. It’s exciting to see the advancements in AI technology.
Gemini Ultra
If you go to the updates page on Gemini, you can see that Bard is now Gemini, and the new Gemini Advanced model is available for $20 a month. It uses the Gemini Ultra 1.0 model, which is said to be more capable at highly complex tasks like coding, logical reasoning, and creative collaboration. It’s available in 150 countries and has an Android app with an iOS app in the works.
However, there are mixed reviews about the performance of Gemini Advanced compared to other models like ChatGPT. It’s still in its early stages, but there’s a lot of potential for improvement.
Microsoft Co-Pilot
On the other hand, Microsoft has made some big changes and updates to Co-Pilot. The Super Bowl ad featuring Co-Pilot showcased its capabilities in generating images and assisting with various tasks. The image generation tool within Co-Pilot is quite impressive with options like color pop, blur background, and various filters.
The latest updates to Co-Pilot show the advancements in AI technology for creative purposes. It’s exciting to see how AI is evolving in the world of tech.
Mid Journey Updates
Mid Journey has also made significant updates, allowing users to generate images directly on the website if they have generated more than a thousand images. The new features include various settings for aspect ratios, stylization, weirdness, and model selection to create unique and creative images.
The ability to blend images, set weights, and customize images further enhances the AI art generation capabilities of Mid Journey. It’s a great platform for creating artistic and innovative visuals.
Apple’s MGE Model
Apple is also making strides in AI with its MGE (MLLM Guided Image Editing) model, which enables users to edit and enhance images based on text prompts. The model can perform tasks like making images healthier, removing objects, and adding contrast to simulate more light.
The application of AI in image editing opens up new possibilities for creative expression and visual storytelling. Apple’s advancements in AI technology are shaping the future of digital content creation.
Meta and Open AI
Meta and Open AI are focusing on labeling AI-generated images to distinguish them from real images. The use of metadata and standards like C2P aims to provide transparency and authenticity to visual content created using AI. These initiatives help combat misinformation and ensure the credibility of digital media.
YouTube’s AI Priorities
YouTube’s CEO highlighted AI as a top priority for the platform, emphasizing the role of AI in empowering human creativity. The integration of AI experiments and features like Dream Screen and Music AI Incubator showcase YouTube’s commitment to leveraging AI for content creation and innovation.
Stable Video Diffusion 1.1
Stable Video Diffusion 1.1 offers incremental improvements in video generation capabilities, providing smoother transitions and enhanced visual effects. While AI video generators are evolving rapidly, future models are expected to surpass current standards in video production.

21:00 it is also illegal to spoof a number to make a commercial call, but that hasn't stopped spammers
Insanity. As if the world isn't bad enough already with humans screwing everything up in government and their sideshow entities.. now you want to help further progress AI into another force of power. Because that's what it will become. It's already causing further anxiety and depression in people's live. But yall over acting like it's all good and a helpful tool. And maybe it is. But for how long? INSANE. ALL OF YOU.

Hi there,
I'm a hypnotherapist diving into content creation to boost my online presence. I specialize in sports hypnosis and need simple, budget-friendly tools for creating/editing videos and content, ideally compatible with Go High Level (GHL). I've experimented with ChatGPT4 and MidJourney for AI content but am overwhelmed by the tech options available. Can you recommend any user-friendly tools for a tech newbie like me? I'm looking to streamline and enhance my content creation process. Thanks in advance for any advice!
Regarding Smaug 16:06 , what's going on with the Arc test result? GPT and Mistral is clearly a lot higher than Smaug, yet Smaug is marked in bold an din blue. Is it better to have low score on Arc?
Matt is like the only Youtuber that will legit cut 8 times in a single sentence lol. I love his content but god itās so jarring
11:19 is the one I want
I have yet to see a AI that can accurately create a image of an Electric Unicycle Rider such as myself
It's mind-blowing to see how rapidly AI technology is advancing, from Gemini Ultra to Microsoft's co-pilot.
nice
AGI is BS. How the heck are these models scoring 80% of these tests, Chat GPT 3.5 is really bad at reasoning. Sure they do the 20-shot, but no one uses it like that. 0-shot for a basic prompt. Chat has never completely answered a question that I genuinely had. The test for me is ask Gemini/GPT 5 the same questions it answered poorly before. I call BS on "AI used to decode an ancient scroll" story AGI is still a tool that can help but doesn't get the job done. Apparently its good at coding but for everything else, google search offers better solutions.
Midjurney is so ass lol
I've heard a lot of concernposting over the years about deep fake videos, of a dangerous dystopic where constantly fake videos will be put out of politicians making speeches they've never made and stuff like that. I really don't think it's gonna be a big deal. It makes perfect sense that AI will be used to counter malicious AI, such as future technology having a kind of anti-malware that instantaneously spots AI generated content and gives you the option of highlighting all AI material with a little symbol to inform you it's not real.
Hi hope you see this…I'm doing a low budget music video need some help or advice on a bionic music video.. please help thanks in advance

I need an upgrade bad, I have a Radeon RX 6800m and with 4 kids, my guilt/bank account has locked me out from selfishly splurging and upgrading to getting serious building out my own AI opportunity and not relying on cloud services and losing a bit of security as my only option.
I am a subscriber and have registered to the Nvidia virtual event. I live down the block from Nvidia and can't drive past it daily without getting sucked in an awesome daydream of me building my own AI agent.

2 minutes – Underwhelming – not overwhelming
your video is good, but those copilot images need some help
C2PA sounds like a great idea, because I already have troubles distinguishing fakes from real things on X. But I wonder how it's gonna work, if you want to modify/retouch your AI generated photo in GIMP. I do that all the them because it rarely manages to generate exactly what I need. I don't mind C2PA to say it was "AI and GIMP generated".
Great info mate your the best
The problem with Geminy for me, personally, is that it treats EACH message as a SEPARATE prompt/interaction. It is impossible to have a coherent conversation with recall of prior messages. As it is now, it definitely is not going to replace ChatGPT 4 for me.
