🚨 Breaking AI News
Elon Musk is a very controversial individual; people love and hate him, and yesterday he gained more haters. He has officially killed Twitter; from now on, the social media app is called “X”.
He tweeted out this, “And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds. If a good enough X logo is posted tonight, we’ll make it go live worldwide tomorrow.”
As expected, Twitter is blowing up with hate comments saying this will drive Twitter in the ground. I’m not sure where I stand on this but I’m not sure if Instagram changing their name to “Z” would be the best thing…
What do you think? Is this a good move?
Shopify has been quietly laying off full-time employees and replacing them with contract workers and AI, despite previously promising job security.
In July 2022, Shopify conducted large layoffs, breaking their NDA regarding job security. This has led to a negative effect in customer satisfaction and employee well being.
There was an extensive breakdown of how Shopify is gaming the system; you can read it here.

Daily Definition
General AI
'General AI,' also known as Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), refers to a type of artificial intelligence that is as smart as a human across the board. In essence, it's a machine or system that possesses the ability to understand, learn, adapt, and implement knowledge in a wide array of tasks, just as a human would. It's not limited to a specific domain; instead, it can transfer learning from one domain to another, demonstrating a broad understanding of the world, just like you and me.
Imagine a scenario where you could converse with your computer about your favorite novel, ask it to help you solve a complex mathematical problem, and then instruct it to cook a gourmet meal, all while it learns and improves over time from these tasks. This is the concept of General AI in action.
