It was great to come back from the chartered accountants ANZ event where to be a judge at and attendance as well. Some great pictures and ideas being pushed out there ranging from personal productivity, assistance to running app helpers and better ways of solving for privacy when it comes to your data. All that and much more much more. See this post here.
Great to see Sarah Kaur (of the CSIRO) talking AI ethics on this podcast which you can get to in her LinkedIn post here.
Also this week we filmed episode 2 of The NC Show with Arturo and Mark. We gave updates from the week but also talked about the need for humans in the loop when it comes to AI. See more here.
Ethan Mollick here with a research piece on the inability of University lecturers in terms of their perceptions of what is AI written versus not. It’s not a hard and fast rule, but there certainly should be something in terms of adjusting how assessments occur in light of GPT tools. Link here.
AI enabled IKEA? That’s what will happen with all the workers being part of this and benefiting from how AI can make their lives better. More here.
OpenAI will be out with an announcement (at 3am Tuesday in Sydney) which is meant to hint at new GPT-4 updates. Some are expecting it to be a new kind of voice assistant (and a HER type moment) or something to do with search (though Sam Altman says it’s not going to quite search). More here from TechCrunch.
Great chat with this engineer on the early days of OpenAI and how it wasn’t just random that they launched ChatGPT and the move from that company over to Google. See more here.

75% of workers (according to this study) are using AI at work. But, without support they’ll end up using bad AI and the consequences are not great. Check out the link here.
Those debates around where the AI is trying to convince you one way or the other can be potentially put to rest when it comes to what openai have released here in terms of their model spec, which clearly shows how the underlying model works when trying to do things like potentially convincing which some people think happens. See the details here.
AI updates from the week are also covered well by Matt Wolfe, you need to check out his YouTube channel for more.
Google DeepMind releasing Alpha Fold 3 didn’t get much fanfare but it’s a pretty big announcement.
We’ll leave you with this funny post which is not too far off from the truth. Dunning Kruger is something that’s in effect for sure. Credit to Oliver Molander on LinkedIn.
