🚨 Breaking AI News

🔎 The FTC is investigating Open AI

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) opened an investigation into OpenAI to discover whether the company has violated consumer protection laws.

The FTC sent OpenAI an extensive 20-page demand letter for records on how it handles risks from its AI models. This is serious stuff, and it is the most significant regulatory threat to the company so far.

The FTC is also looking into a security bug that exposed some user data and whether OpenAI engaged in unfair practices that caused consumer harm.

If Open AI is found to have broken laws, the FTC could impose fines or implement requirements on how the company handles data.

Is Open AI guilty?

🌐 Meta releases AI model

Meta is preparing to release a commercial version of its AI model in an attempt to catch up to Open AI, Google, and Anthropic in the AI race.

The new open-source AI system will allow startups and businesses to build custom software on top of Meta's LLM. Meta's previous model, LLaMA, was available to researchers earlier this year; this new version will be more customizable for companies looking to implement AI.

Meta's chief AI scientist, Yann LeCun believes the AI sector will drastically change as open-source models become as capable as closed-source models.

Daily Definition

Open Source

'Open Source' refers to something people can modify and share because its design is publicly accessible. In the context of software like many AI technologies, open source means that the source code (the part of software that most people don't ever see) is available to the public and anyone can view, access, modify, and distribute the project as they see fit.

Open source projects encourage collaboration and transparency, allowing for a diverse community of contributors to build and improve upon them. For instance, an open-source AI project could be continuously improved by a global community of developers, making it more efficient or adaptable over time.

A couple of popular examples in the AI field are TensorFlow and PyTorch - both are open-source software libraries used for various tasks with artificial neural networks.
