On April 24, OReilly Media will be hosting Coding with AI: The End of Software Development as We Know It a live virtual tech conference spotlighting how AI is already supercharging developers, boosting productivity, and providing real value to their organizations.
Global competition is heating up among large language models (LLMs), with the major players vying for dominance in AI reasoning capabilities and cost efficiency. OpenAI is leading the pack with ChatGPT and DeepSeek, both of which pushed the boundaries of artificial intelligence.
As generativeAI proliferates, it’s beginning to reach the ads we hear on podcasts and the radio. Startup Adthos this week launched a platform that uses AI to generate scripts for audio ads — and even add voiceovers, sound effects and music. “The ones that don’t will be the ones losing jobs.”
Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer the stuff of science fiction; its here, influencing everything from healthcare to hiring practices. Tools like ChatGPT have democratized access to AI, allowing individuals and organizations to harness its potential in ways previously unimaginable.
If any technology has captured the collective imagination in 2023, it’s generativeAI — and businesses are beginning to ramp up hiring for what in some cases are very nascent gen AI skills, turning at times to contract workers to fill gaps, pursue pilots, and round out in-house AI project teams.
The launch of ChatGPT in November 2022 set off a generativeAI gold rush, with companies scrambling to adopt the technology and demonstrate innovation. They have a couple of use cases that they’re pushing heavily on, but they are building up this portfolio of traditional machine learning and ‘predictive’ AI use cases as well.”
GenerativeAI — AI that can write essays, create artwork and music, and more — continues to attract outsize investor attention.

(As As a refresher, ChatGPT is the free text-generatingAI that can write human-like code, emails, essays and more.) So, signed up for both events?
’s ICO, Canada’s OPC and Hong Kong’s OPCPD, has urged mainstream social media platforms to protect users’ public posts from scraping — warning they face a legal responsibility to do so in most markets. A joint statement signed by regulators at a dozen international privacy watchdogs, including the U.K.’s
While there’s an open letter calling for all AI labs to immediately pause training of AI systems more powerful than GPT-4 for six months, the reality is the genie is already out of the bottle. When AI-generated code works, it’s sublime,” says Cassie Kozyrkov, chief decision scientist at Google.
Yet another startup hoping to cash in on the generativeAI craze has secured an eye-popping tranche of VC funding. Called Fixie , the firm, founded by former engineering heads at Apple and Google, aims to connect text-generating models similar to OpenAI’s ChatGPT to an enterprise’s data, systems and workflows.
GenerativeAI has seen faster and more widespread adoption than any other technology today, with many companies already seeing ROI and scaling up use cases into wide adoption. Vendors are adding gen AI across the board to enterprise software products, and AI developers havent been idle this year either.
Advances in AI, particularly generativeAI, have made deriving value from unstructured data easier. Since those early days, the ratio of structured and unstructured data has shifted as the Internet, social media, digital cameras, smartphones, digital communications, etc. What’s different now?
As I reflect on the biggest technology innovations during my career―the Internet, smartphones, social media―a new breakthrough deserves a spot on that list. GenerativeAI has taken the world seemingly by storm, impacting everything from software development, to marketing, to conversations with my kids at the dinner table.
GenerativeAI has been the biggest technology story of 2023. Almost everybody’s played with ChatGPT, Stable Diffusion, GitHub Copilot, or Midjourney. In enterprises, we’ve seen everything from wholesale adoption to policies that severely restrict or even forbid the use of generativeAI. What’s the reality?
Its been an exciting year, dominated by a constant stream of breakthroughs and announcements in AI, and complicated by industry-wide layoffs. GenerativeAI gets better and betterbut that trend may be at an end. It accounts for different usage behavior for different media: text, courses, and quizzes.
At O’Reilly, we’re not just building training materials about AI. One of the ways we are putting AI to work is our update to Answers. Answers is a generativeAI-powered feature that aims to answer questions in the flow of learning. However, it differs from chat applications like ChatGPT in several ways.
O’Reilly’s GenerativeAI in the Enterprise survey reported that people have trouble coming up with appropriate enterprise use cases for AI. About the GenerativeAI in the Real World podcast : In 2023, ChatGPT put AI on everyone’s agenda. 3:02 : AI is easy to demo, but hard to productize.
Anthropic , a startup that hopes to raise $5 billion over the next four years to train powerful text-generatingAI systems like OpenAI’s ChatGPT , today peeled back the curtain on its approach to creating those systems. “Constitutional AI responds to shortcomings by using AI feedback to evaluate outputs.”
Copyright was intended to incentivize cultural production: in the era of generativeAI, copyright won’t be enough. GenerativeAI Has a Plagiarism Problem ChatGPT, for example, doesn’t memorize its training data, per se. This is the basis of The New York Times lawsuit against OpenAI.
AI whisperer” jobs are roles made for people who are savvy prompt engineers and able to manipulate ChatGPT or other generativeAI tools to get what they want from it. It’s also a reminder that generativeAI’s boom will create a whole new set of questions about how we ask questions. Ask for help.
It’s only been a couple of months since OpenAI’s ChatGPT exploded into the public consciousness, and it already feels like our news feeds will never be the same again. Going from all-out rage prompted by the FTX fiasco to ChatGPT setting off the red alert at Google HQ made for a sudden, even shocking shift in the tech news cycle.
GenerativeAI is coming for videos. A new website, QuickVid , combines several generativeAI systems into a single tool for automatically creating short-form YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat videos. QuickVid uses the prompt to generate a script, leveraging the generative text powers of GPT-3.
I’m sure that nobody will be surprised that the number of searches for ChatGPT on the O’Reilly learning platform skyrocketed after its release in November, 2022. The number of searches for Machine Learning itself held steady, though it arguably declined slightly when ChatGPT appeared. What can we make of this?

Subcategories include natural language generation (NLG) — a computer’s ability to create communication of its own — and natural language understanding (NLU) — the ability to understand slang, mispronunciations, misspellings, and other variants in language. Apply the technology to voice and the pool gets even larger. Amazon Comprehend.
Ever since OpenAI’s ChatGPT set adoption records last winter, companies of all sizes have been trying to figure out how to put some of that sweet generativeAI magic to use. Many, if not most, enterprises deploying generativeAI are starting with OpenAI, typically via a private cloud on Microsoft Azure.
As a user of ChatGPT to both get work done faster and kick the tires on what it can do, I’ve been impressed (it replied to a prompt to “tell me about Aristotle in the style of Roy Kent ,” the expletive-prone “Ted Lasso” character, with uncanny flair). How can AI help marketers track your brand on social media?
