1. ChatGPT Can Now Read Your Images đź–Ľ
As a part of ChatGPT’s GPT-4 vision updates, one feature that is coming allows ChatGPT to read and analyze images. Well, it looks like this feature started rolling out yesterday as we and a few other EverydAIers have noticed it in our ChatGPT! Give ChatGPT an image and go test it for yourself!
2. AI's Surging Power Consumption: A Global Concern? ⚡
The electricity consumption of AI systems is skyrocketing, now comparable to the power usage of entire nations like the Netherlands, raising environmental and sustainability concerns. This surge is driven by the increasing complexity and computational demands of new AI models, highlighting the urgent need for more energy-efficient AI research and development.
3. Google's Bard AI Enhances Pixel and Galaxy S24 Experience 📱
Google integrates its Bard AI tool with the Google Assistant on Pixel phones and Samsung's Galaxy S24, offering users real-time information and context-specific actions. This move aims to make everyday tasks more convenient and personalized, marking a significant step in mobile AI interactions.
4. OpenAI's New Terms for AI Developers đź’»
OpenAI is set to roll out updates aimed at making AI development more accessible and cost-effective. These updates include a "Stateful API" for cheaper application running and a Vision API for scalable image analysis solutions. The changes, expected to significantly lower costs and expand capabilities, will be unveiled at OpenAI's upcoming developer conference.
5. Meta's Strategy to Curb AI Hallucinations đź’
Meta introduces Chain-of-Verification (CoVe), a new method reducing errors in AI language models like ChatGPT. CoVe improves accuracy by generating self-verification questions for the AI to answer, ensuring more reliable information. This approach has shown substantial improvements in factual accuracy and could be further enhanced with external databases. Read more here.
We cloned ChatGPT using ChatGPT's new Vision feature 🤯
ChatGPT is rolling out its new features to ChatGPT Plus users, including Dall-E in-line, voice features, and the ability to chat with ChatGPT through image upload. These new functionalities are unofficially called GTPT-4V, or GPT-4 Vision.
So what did we do?
We tried to see if we could upload a screenshot of ChatGPT and use ChatGPT to create a live clone of the ChatGPT interface.
Kinda meta, right?
Crazy part? It got the basics right, pretty quickly. After a lil hiccup, we created a live, visual clone of ChatGPT's interface.
Check out today's AI in 5.
🤷‍♂️ What’s Going On and Why It Matters:
We all wanna be scholarly, right?
** Adjusts tie, straightens cough links, adjusts bifocals **
Ahem.
Alright, maybe the ScholarAI plugin won’t turn us into ACTUAL scholars, but this ChatGPT plugin can definitely give us more scholarly output in our favorite large language model.
Full disclosure: we get ChatGPT plugin developers and AI companies asking to be on our show all the time. We normally say no. In this case, though, ScholarAI is one of our favorite plugins.
In our free Prime, Prompt, Polish Pro course, it’s included as one of our 20 recommended plugins we go over.
Why?
In short, ScholarAI helps solve one of the most common problems inside ChatGPT — inaccurate or incomplete information.
Also known as lies, hallucinations, nonsense, and hot garbage.
Who should use ScholarAI?
Just about everyone who has a ChatGPT Plus subscription and can access plugins.
One of the major downsides of ChatGPT is it doesn’t cite its sources and its knowledge cutoff is about 2 years old. In other words, the ScholarAI plugin gives ChatGPT the ability to not only access more reliable and up-to-date information, but it also cites its sources, allowing you to click to read the source information and learn more.
So whether you’re a student, researcher, or just trying to nail down specifics while working on your next presentation, ScholarAI gives you the extra oomph you need inside ChatGPT.
ScholarAI is a ChatGPT plugin with a great free plan that allows users in ChatGPT Plus to instantly cut the BS that large language models can produce.
With a growing database of more than 200 million scholarly articles across science, research, medicine, law, business and more, ScholarAI gives ChatGPT unprecedented access to fact-based information.
Damon Burrow, the Cofounder ScholarAI, joined us LIVE this morning to tackle the 101 about Scholar AI and answer all your amazing questions.
What else did we learn?
We tackled:
Consequences of relying solely on large language models for professional decisions
The need for guardrails and structural support in AI systems
ScholarAI’s focus on high-risk areas such as medicine, science, research, law, and business
Infusing trust by providing accurate information from reliable sources
Let’s talk about what it all means 👇
🦾How You Can Leverage:
How important is getting accurate results out of ChatGPT?
So important that we did two shows in a row about it.
Yesterday, we talked about tokens, and how ChatGPT’s short memory limit leads to hallucinations. Today, we brought in the big guns.
Damon not only Cofounded ScholarAI, but he joined us live to talk about it, answered questions, and gave us a step-by-step walkthrough of how ScholarAI improves accuracy inside ChatGPT.
Oh, you’re not a researcher or student, so you think ScholarAI aint for you?
Wrong.
Think of ScholarAI as the facts-first ChatGPT companion that compliments it to sure that ChatGPT gives you more accurate information and even cite its sources to learn more.
In short, ScholarAI provides access to about 200 million academic, research, scientific and other papers. Instant facts, up-to-date and with citations. (You see why it’s one of our favorite plugins now?)
Let’s go through the 1-2-3 of what ScholarAI is, and how it can give you more accurate and reliable results inside ChatGPT.
1 – Know the limits 🚦
We gotta start with the basics y’all.
The free version of ChatGPT can be problematic when it comes to lying. The free GPT3.5 mode has a knowledge cutoff of September 2021, whereas the paid GPT4 model has a knowledge cutoff of January 2022.
By using the $20 a month ChatGPT Plus subscription, you can access free plugins like ScholarAI to cut down on inaccuracies and out of date information.
Try this:
If you wanna get the basics, we did a quick run through of ScholarAI in August. It’s a high-level overview of ScholarAI, what it can do, and how to install it and run it.
2 – Be a scholar sleuth 🕵️‍♂️
Damon dropped some next-level advice when walking us through Scholar AI.
Tapping into an academic research paper is a next-level way to ensure accuracy in your ChatGPT efforts. But what’s even better than that? Calling on multiple sources in one query.
Try this:
Don’t stop at one.
When using the ScholarAI plugin, ask for multiple sources if you’re working on a certain topic. Start with more open ended questions, such as “please provide me with 3 recent studies showing the impact that artificial intelligence can have on the US economy.”
Then, you can follow up in the same chat, and ask specific questions of the 3 different sources that ScholarAI pulls into your search.
3 – Give ScholarAI some plugin friends 🤝️
You got it by now.
ScholarAI brings in 200 million fact-based, scholarly references you can talk to inside ChatGPT. It’s like having a convo with a mile-high stack of encyclopedias that instantly cites its sources. (Unlike ChatGPT by default.)
What can be better than that? How about combining ScholarAI’s capabilities with other plugins? Now we’re talking.
Try this:
We’re big fans of building Plugin Packs to completely change your business. Inside the paid version of ChatGPT plus, you can have 3 plugins active. So, try also using an Internet-connected plugin with ScholarAI to really bring ChatGPT up to date and a LLM superhero.
Or, like Damon suggested, try using a diagramming plugin like “Diagrams: Show Me” “Whimsical Diagrams” or the daigr .am plugin can really help.
Talk about a learning superpower! In one chat, you can get fact-based and cited information from ScholarAI and a visual representation from a diagramming plugin to expand your ability to process new subjects!
