The Noodle Network Tech and AI: Seasoned with a Dash of Humor
December 11, 2024
Todayās tech scoop has AI drama, multilingual upgrades, audiobook ambitions, OpenAI events, and a $20B green energy push from Google. Letās dive inādonāt forget your sense of humor.
ElevenLabsā AI voice generation technology was āvery likelyā used in a Russian influence operation. So, yes, even artificial intelligence isnāt safe from shady geopolitics. The idea of a machine-perfect Putin impersonation trying to manipulate global audiences is both terrifying and oddly futuristic. ElevenLabs says theyāre tightening the controls, but itās a reminder that AI-generated voices can do more than read bedtime storiesāthey can cause nightmares too.
YouTubeās new auto-dubbing feature is here, now available for knowledge-focused content. So, whether youāre watching a quantum physics explainer or a deep dive into medieval bread-making, you can now enjoy it in your preferred language. The feature promises to make educational content accessible worldwideāor at least to the handful of people who really want to understand string theory in Tagalog.
HarperCollinsā CEO is hyped about Spotify entering the audiobook space and AIās growing impact on publishing. The audiobook boom means more people listening to books while they fold laundry, and AI could help authors churn out more contentāor at least some really creative outlines. But letās be real: the thought of an AI āco-authorā is enough to make any writer consider early retirement.
OpenAIās 2024 event is almost here, promising big ChatGPT product reveals and demos. Itās basically Appleās āOne More Thingā moment but for people who dream about neural networks instead of iPhones. Expect new features, exciting announcements, and probably a couple of buzzwords that will make you sound smart at dinner parties. Pro tip: ātransformative AIā is always a crowd-pleaser.
Google is kicking off a $20 billion renewable energy building spree to power its AI ambitions. Apparently, training models that can write poetry and solve math problems takes a lot of energy. The goal? AI thatās carbon-neutral and guilt-free. Somewhere, a Google exec is probably pitching this as āthe Tesla of tech projects,ā while the rest of us are just wondering if it means fewer blackout jokes from our smart devices.
Thatās your tech rundown for todayāAI drama, futuristic features, and billion-dollar bets on renewable energy. If youāve got a good book recommendation (audiobook counts too), reply and let me know. After all, I might as well enjoy the human side of storytelling before AI takes over that too.
Catch you later, šš¾š¤
