The UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has outlined seven principles to guide the regulation and development of foundational AI models.

  • The CMA focuses on AI systems like OpenAI's GPT-4 and Meta's Llama 2, emphasizing accountability, access to training data, and diversity in business models.

  • The principles aim to encourage competition, prevent the proliferation of low-performing AI systems, and provide consumer protection.

  • While the European Union and China have also begun to regulate AI, the United States is still in the process of defining its approach.

Our point: The UK is trying to become an 'AI Hub' under PM Rishi Sunak. Similar frameworks are a step in the right direction, but I don't see how they can achieve it while competing with the US, China, and the EU.

Roblox is introducing a conversational AI tool called Roblox Assistant to help users create 3D assets and behaviors for games using natural language prompts.

  • Roblox Assistant aims to assist users in tasks like code generation and debugging, as well as game asset creation.

  • The tool was trained on publicly available 3D models and unveiled at the annual Roblox Developer Conference.

  • Developers can opt-in to share their anonymized Luau script data to improve Roblox's AI capabilities.

  • They are also working on AI models to generate avatars, with a planned release in 2024.

Our point: While the results are not the best I've seen, Roblox's userbase is huge, which is very positive for introducing the concept of Generative AI to the mass public.

Google has updated its guidelines for website owners aiming to improve their search rankings. The company has removed the suggestion that content should be "written by people."

  • The change is likely to accelerate the trend of AI-generated content online, especially as Google itself develops tools for AI content creation.

  • Google's algorithm previously gave importance to human authorship for ranking content but now only emphasizes content created "for people."

  • The shift has far-reaching implications for the multi-billion dollar SEO industry, as it changes how websites may strategize their content creation.

Our point: We should expect the majority of new small sites to be (at least partially) generated with AI content tools, especially if we see AdSense changing its policy to make it easier to monetize this AI content.

If used with human moderation and fact-checks, this is not bad at all.

🛠️ Trending Tools 🛠️

Vectorizer.AI - a fast and effective vectorizer, currently free. I've played with it, and it does a fantastic job. It has a simple UI but powerful saving options.

Suno.AI - MidJourney for music - creates songs in a matter of seconds. Just set a style, paste lyrics, or let AI generate ones based on your topic input. It's unbelievable how fast these tools are advancing.

🎨 BONUS - Super Prompt 🎨


As this is our first issue, and one of the most common questions about MidJourney is how to make a logo, here's how we made our logo:

Prompt: simple flat logo, AI newsletter - Bits & Neurons, white background, 2d {--v 5.1, 5.2}

For some prompts, simple text does the best job. No fancy descriptions, no five lines of adjectives.

I promise you more visually appealing prompts in the next issues 😄
