🤖 Meet ChatGPT's New Fierce Competitor

Anthropic's new chatbot, Claude 2, is now available for people in the US and UK to try.

Anthropic describes Claude as a friendly and enthusiastic colleague who can help with various tasks.

It can create summaries, write code, translate text, and more. 

But what sets Claude apart is its conversational tone and supposedly even a sense of humor (fingers crossed, it's actually funny!).

It's better at explaining its thinking and less likely to produce harmful outputs.

Claude is guided by a set of principles called a “constitution", which makes it better at explaining its thinking and less likely to produce harmful outputs.

But most importantly, it can revise its responses without human intervention.

You can try Claude v2 today, do let us know if it lives up to the hype.

🤝 Shutterstock Expands Its Partnership with OpenAI.

Shutterstock and OpenAI are extending their partnership, and it's a big deal.

Shutterstock is letting OpenAI use its vast library of images, videos, music, and metadata to train its AI models for another six years.

This partnership started in 2021 when Shutterstock allowed OpenAI to use its images to train its text-to-image model, DALL-E.

In return, Shutterstock created a fund to compensate artists whose work was used for training.

Shutterstock had integrated OpenAI's image generator into its website, even banning the sale of AI-generated images that weren't created using its built-in tool.

But now, Shutterstock is taking it up a notch.

Users can edit and transform any image in the entire Shutterstock library. Additionally, the company plans to introduce AI features to Giphy, the GIF-making platform they acquired from Meta earlier this year.
