One Big Story: Canvas Beta: A New Way to Collaborate with ChatGPT

OpenAI just released a significant new feature for ChatGPT called Canvas, and it's changing the game for anyone who writes or codes with AI. Imagine working on your projects alongside ChatGPT, with a window that opens up for real-time collaboration. This makes tackling complex edits and revisions that a simple chat can't handle easier. This is what Canvas is all about.

Main Takeaways:

• Canvas isn't just a new feature; it's a new way to work with ChatGPT beyond back-and-forth text conversations.

• Built with GPT-4o, Canvas provides an interface for highlighting specific parts of your project and getting more targeted help—like a copy editor or a code reviewer who is always available.

• It's rolling out now for Plus and Team users and will be available to Free users once it’s out of beta.

My Take: I'm thrilled about this. OpenAI is pushing toward a more collaborative future with AI. When I'm diving deep into a writing project or debugging code, context is everything. Canvas makes it easier for ChatGPT to understand what I'm doing and helps me with precisely what I need. Plus, the ability to directly edit or get feedback without jumping between screens feels like the kind of productivity boost I could get used to. It's like having an AI co-pilot that isn't just along for the ride but knows when to take the wheel.

Cool Tech: Meta’s Movie Gen

Meta has just introduced Movie Gen, a new suite of foundation models designed to generate high-quality 1080p videos with synchronized audio. Movie Gen isn’t just about making videos from scratch—it also enables personalized video creation based on a user’s image and offers precise editing capabilities. It's a giant leap for AI-driven media generation, covering everything from text-to-video synthesis to video personalization.

Main Takeaways:

• Movie Gen can generate HD videos from text prompts, edit videos, and even create personalized videos based on user-provided images.

• The largest model has 30 billion parameters and can generate videos up to 16 seconds long at 16 frames per second.

• It also includes a video-to-audio model that can generate synchronized sound effects and music, offering a complete generative media package.

Remember the Hollywood strikes from last year? This is exactly what they were worried about. This is going to change everything about the media industry. WOW.

Latest News

🔗 Nvidia just dropped a bombshell: Its new AI model is open, massive, and ready to rival GPT-4

My take: Nvidia released this as open source, which should accelerate AI research worldwide. We are truly living in the golden age of innovation, so please enjoy it.

🔗 Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt says we should go all in on building AI data centers because 'we are never going to meet our climate goals anyway'

My take: Behind the scenes, I guess most people feel this way. Why? They want to build and profit today and leave the climate mess to the next generation. Eric is 69 years old. What does he care about this planet?

🔗 What the Heck Is Going On At OpenAI?

My take: I love OpenAI and believe in everything it’s building. That said, where there is smoke, there is usually fire. Something is going on there that is not normal. Too many important people have left in a very short time. The answer may be scary.

🔗 Waymo and Hyundai enter multi-year, strategic partnership

My take: I believe autonomous cars will severely hurt car companies that depend on multiple people in each household having their own car. If you can’t beat them, join them.

Today’s Tip: Generate Click-Worthy Ad Copy Instantly with AI

Crafting compelling ad copy is more complicated than it seems. Companies spend billions each year to nail down strong messaging and impactful ads. But now, you have the power to use AI to generate multiple versions, test them out, and keep improving over time.

Below is a prompt that will give you incredible ad copy, so long as you complete the placeholders with extreme detail. Here are some instructions on how to complete the prompt correctly for the best results:

1. Pain Points: Identify the specific pain points or challenges your target audience faces. Example: "Struggling with dry, irritated skin that just won't improve?"

2. Benefits over Competitors: Highlight what makes your product/service superior to alternatives. For example, "Unlike other skincare serums, GlowGuard uses a unique blend of organic botanicals that provide lasting hydration without harsh chemicals."

3. Customer Testimonials or Social Proof: Include a snippet of a customer testimonial or mention how many people have benefited. Example: "Join over 5,000 happy customers who have transformed their skin with GlowGuard."

4. Emotion-Driven Language: Use emotional triggers to make your copy more persuasive. For example, "Imagine feeling confident in your skin every day—GlowGuard makes that possible."

5. Personalization: Address the reader directly to create a connection. Example: "You deserve skincare that works as hard as you do."

6. Solution-Oriented Statement: Emphasize how the product solves the customer's problem. For example, "GlowGuard is the all-natural solution for achieving the radiant, clear skin you've always wanted."

7. Scarcity or FOMO (Fear of Missing Out): Use language that creates urgency and scarcity. For example, "Only available while supplies last—don't miss your chance to save!"

8. Specific Details: Include specific numbers or facts that add credibility. Example: "Clinically proven to reduce redness by 80% in just two weeks."

Here is the prompt:

Write an engaging social media ad copy for [Product/Service Name], which helps [Target Audience] to [Solve a Problem/Enjoy a Benefit]. Highlight the unique value of [Key Feature] and create a sense of urgency by emphasizing [Time-Limited Offer/Special Deal]. Include a compelling [Call-to-Action] to encourage [Desired Action]. Ensure the tone is [Brand Voice, e.g., friendly, luxurious, energetic, etc.].

🤔 Which image is real?

One of these images is real, and one was created with AI. Vote for which one you think is real, and tell us why you voted that way. My only goal is to choose such good photos that the majority of votes are wrong.

Last edition’s results (52% were correct):

Did you vote in the poll from the 5th? The bottom image received the most votes and was, in fact, real.

😆 The one comment that made me laugh:

“It's a guess.”
