The Impact of Generative AI on Customer Engagement, Code, and Upskilling

Generative AI is making it easier and cheaper to create low-quality content, leading to an increase in spammy websites and misinformation. Advertisers are being affected as their ads appear on these junk news sites, potentially diverting advertising money away from legitimate sites. The solution to this problem is unclear, with suggestions ranging from tighter regulation by search engines and ad platforms to the development of better-funded platforms. In other AI news, OpenAI has launched GPT-4, its latest text-generating model, and is forming a team to develop ways to control "superintelligent" AI systems. New York City has begun enforcing a law requiring employers to submit algorithms used for recruitment and promotion for independent audits. Major tech figures in Europe have warned against stifling innovation with AI regulations. Additionally, various AI projects have been developed, including a smart intubation system, AI-powered animation technology for movies, and AI applications in archaeology and natural disaster prediction.
