Silicon Valley: When Algorithms Meet Human Absurdity

The world of artificial intelligence, where tech giants play a game that's part chess, part poker, and part complete lunacy! A world where computer programs are becoming smarter than humans, and the people creating them are simultaneously excited and terrified. It's like watching a mad scientist experiment, except the laboratory is a gleaming office in Silicon Valley, and the mad scientists are wearing designer hoodies and drinking artisanal cold brew. Silicon Valley: When Algorithms Meet Human Absurdity The AI Arms Race: More Competitive Than a Kindergarten Talent Show Let's talk about Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI – the tech world's equivalent of overly competitive parents trying to prove their child is the most gifted. Sundar Pichai, Google's CEO, recently declared he'd love to do a "side-by-side comparison" of AI models with Microsoft. Can you picture this? Two grown men in expensive suits, comparing computer algorithms like they're comparin...

From Rust Belt to Robot Realm: Germany's AI Awakening

Okay, folks, let's talk about the future of Germany. The land of bratwurst, beer, and bureaucracy. A country that once ruled the world with its engineering prowess, now seems to be losing its edge.  Cars? Bah! They're building those things in China now. And what about our beloved industrial heartland? It's looking a bit rusty, let's be honest. But fear not, dear reader, for we have a savior: Artificial Intelligence! Or as I like to call it, the magic pixie dust that will solve all our problems. At least, that's what the experts at the Falling Walls Science Summit seem to think. You know, the same people who brought you such groundbreaking innovations as the Walkman and the Rubik's Cube. One of these experts, a guy named Richard Socher, has a brilliant idea. He thinks we should start teaching kids Python in high school. Because, you know, what better way to prepare for a future of automation than to learn a programming language that sounds like a snake? And let...

AI Chat Alternatives: AI chats at a glance

As artificial intelligence continues to evolve, more and more AI chat programs and tools are becoming available to users. These programs offer users an alternative to ChatGPT, an AI chatbot that is based on the GPT-3.5 architecture and has been trained on a vast amount of language data. In this article, we will take a look at six top AI chat programs at a glance that can serve as alternatives to ChatGPT. AI chat programs and tools 1. Perplexity:  Perplexity is an AI program that uses the OpenAI Software API, just like ChatGPT. However, unlike ChatGPT, Perplexity has access to the entire internet, making it function more like a search engine than a chatbot. Perplexity can answer a wide range of questions by scanning the internet and providing relevant results. However, it may not be as reliable as ChatGPT and may not always provide accurate answers. 2. ChatSonic:  ChatSonic is a program that allows users to chat with the AI WriteSonic. Like ChatGPT, WriteSo...

OpenAI Discontinues Support for Codex API

On March 23rd, 2023, OpenAI made an announcement that they will be discontinuing support for the Codex API. The API was initially introduced as a free limited beta in 2021, and it has maintained that status to date. However, with the advancements of OpenAI's newest GPT-3.5 models for coding tasks, they will no longer be supporting Codex and encourage all customers to transition to GPT-3.5-Turbo. This change will affect the following models: code-cushman:001, code-cushman:002, code-davinci:001, and code-davinci:002. OpenAI Discontinues Support for Codex API GPT-3.5-Turbo is the most cost-effective and performant model in the GPT-3.5 family. It can do coding tasks while also being complemented with flexible natural language capabilities. With the transition to GPT-3.5-Turbo, OpenAI is confident that it will allow them to increase their investment in their latest and most capable models. Although the transition from Codex to GPT-3.5-Turbo may be temporarily inc...
