🔥 What’s Hot in AI News:

Shopify’s AI ‘Sidekick’ chatbot for merchants is now in early access

Shopify has launched its AI "Sidekick" chatbot in early access, available to English-speaking merchants in North America. Sidekick helps with tasks like creating discount codes, generating reports, and suggesting blog posts. Shopify also introduced AI-powered product categorization, which automatically suggests taxonomy for listings, and suggested replies for customer chats. Additionally, the AI image generator, previously launched in January, is now accessible via iOS and Android apps, enabling broader use in Shopify's admin. Merchants can join a waitlist to access Sidekick.

OpenAI’s first acquisition is an enterprise data startup

OpenAI has acquired Rockset, an enterprise analytics startup, to enhance its retrieval infrastructure across its product suite. This marks OpenAI's first acquisition integrating both the technology and team of another company. Rockset, which has raised $105 million, helps transform data into actionable intelligence. Current Rockset customers will experience a gradual transition, with some team members moving to OpenAI. This acquisition aims to address the large-scale database challenges faced by AI applications.

Google is bringing Gemini access to teens using their school accounts

Google is expanding its AI technology, Gemini, to teen students using school accounts. This initiative aims to enhance learning with real-time feedback and prepare students for a future with AI. Google ensures student data won't be used to train its AI and has implemented guardrails to prevent inappropriate content. Additionally, educators gain new tools like the Read Along feature, which supports reading skills and provides insights into student progress. Gemini will be available in English in over 100 countries, and administrators can activate it for their schools.

Meta makes its AI chatbot available to all users in India

Meta is rolling out its Llama 3-powered AI chatbot to all users in India after testing it during the general elections. The chatbot, available in English, supports WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, and Facebook. It assists with tasks like recipe suggestions, workout plans, email drafting, and text summarization. On Instagram, it can suggest Reels, and on Facebook, it can answer questions related to posts. Despite previous issues with biases in image generation, Meta continues to update its models. The chatbot is integrated into the Meta.AI website and within group chats on WhatsApp.
