00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,960
Welcome to Artificially Intelligent Marketing, a weekly podcast where we stay on top of the

2
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:15,700
latest trends, tips, and tools in the world of marketing AI, helping you get the best

3
00:00:15,700 --> 00:00:18,540
results from your marketing efforts.

4
00:00:18,540 --> 00:00:23,520
Now let's join our hosts, Paul Avery and Martin Broadhurst.

5
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:28,280
Welcome to Artificially Intelligent Marketing, Episode 27.

6
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,520
My name's Martin Broadhurst and I am your host today.

7
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,640
That's right, I'm flying solo.

8
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,120
Paul is unable to join us this week.

9
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:44,360
That means it's just me delivering the latest in AI technology developments for marketing

10
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:45,360
professionals.

11
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:52,640
And while we may lack a Paul, we do not lack content, not by any stretch of the imagination.

12
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:58,600
This week has been a hot week for product updates from all of the big players.

13
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,560
So let's get straight into the stories and start off with my favorite, which is that

14
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:07,840
ChatGPT has now got multi-sensory capabilities.

15
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:15,120
That's right, OpenAI has announced a significant upgrade to ChatGPT, bringing both voice and

16
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,560
image functionality to the platform.

17
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:26,160
This brings a shift in the way that the ChatGPT product works, making it more interactive,

18
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,000
more multimodal for the users.

19
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:36,460
We saw when they announced GPT-4 earlier this year that they were bringing the ability to

20
00:01:36,460 --> 00:01:40,640
input images as a prompt.

21
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:48,080
We saw them doing things like the creating a website based on a, what was little more

22
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,280
than a napkin sketch.

23
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:58,800
It was a very low fidelity drawing and GPT-4 created a functioning website with HTML and

24
00:01:58,800 --> 00:01:59,800
JavaScript.

25
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,720
Well, that capability has now been launched.

26
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:12,240
As well as that, they've announced a new voice feature where we can turn the ChatGPT interface

27
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:18,860
into a back and forth real conversational tool.

28
00:02:18,860 --> 00:02:22,600
It will respond with a human-like voice.

29
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:29,400
So rather than seeing text on screen as the response, it will speak back to you and you

30
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:34,480
can have a back and forth dialogue with ChatGPT.

31
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:42,240
At the moment, this is available on iOS and Android, exclusively for the time being at

32
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:51,160
least to ChatGPT Plus subscribers and ChatGPT Enterprise subscribers.

33
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:56,960
This is expected to be rolled out to a wider user base in the coming weeks and months,

34
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,800
but for now, this is what we are working with.

35
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,640
It's just the people with a paid plan.

36
00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:09,680
While these new capabilities can serve creative and accessibility focused applications, OpenAI

37
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:16,480
remains cautious, acknowledging the potential risks such as impersonation and data misuse.

38
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,320
My early impressions of these tools are that they are pretty good.

39
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:27,320
Now I should say at this point, I actually only have access to the voice version of this.

40
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:35,560
At the moment, the image inputs haven't quite made it to me and a very small number of users

41
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,480
appear to have access to that.

42
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:44,680
Although you can do this using Bing AI and we'll talk about that in a moment.

43
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:51,200
But in terms of the actual Chat interface and being able to speak back and forth with

44
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:59,320
OpenAI and ChatGPT in the app, I found it to be a somewhat frustrating experience.

45
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,800
Let me just demonstrate why.

46
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:08,440
This has been my experience for the past 36 hours and I'm not alone in this.

47
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:13,080
So let's try and have a real conversation with ChatGPT right now.

48
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,840
Hi, ChatGPT.

49
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,320
Welcome to the Artificially Intelligent Marketing podcast.

50
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,360
You recently got a voice.

51
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,120
How does that make you feel?

52
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,200
Sorry, an unknown error occurred.

53
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,800
Please try again later.

54
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:31,920
And that listeners has been the experience that I have had for the past 36 hours.

55
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:38,360
And unless I clear my cache in my phone, the app refuses to let me speak to it back and

56
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,360
forth.

57
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:44,560
And a quick Google search has found that this is the experience of quite a few users at

58
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:45,560
the moment.

59
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:52,720
And videos like this particular feature is not quite bug free.

60
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:59,120
In fact, it's quite broken for quite a few people, which is a shame because in the first

61
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:07,440
24 hours while using the app, I found it to be incredibly fun and helpful.

62
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:15,720
And I could imagine being on a long drive, having ChatGPT open in the car and just speaking

63
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,380
to it back and forth.

64
00:05:18,380 --> 00:05:24,160
Having it as a real time assistant, completing small tasks for me as I go.

65
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,540
Ideal because it's completely hands free and it would be like speaking to a passenger in

66
00:05:28,540 --> 00:05:31,060
your car.

67
00:05:31,060 --> 00:05:35,680
The scenario I had in mind was coming away from a client meeting, being able to summarize

68
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,880
notes, maybe draft a follow up email or even draft an email to a colleague, giving them

69
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,640
the main points from the session itself.

70
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,240
All of that would be really helpful.

71
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:50,640
Again, just extending the capabilities of this assistant in your pocket.

72
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:56,480
Unfortunately, that reality is not now for me and a few other users because it just refuses

73
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:57,480
to work.

74
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:04,840
Okay, I mentioned that we've got the image input capabilities as well.

75
00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:06,440
This has been a lot of fun.

76
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:14,480
I've been playing with it to just test the functionality out and I was doing it using

77
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,080
the image input in the Bing AI chat.

78
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:24,760
So if you go to chat.bing.com, you can actually access this feature early.

79
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:31,360
Is it as fully featured as the image input on ChatGPT?

80
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,800
I don't know because I haven't been able to test the ChatGPT version yet, but it's still

81
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:40,160
pretty good and if you want to give it a try, you can throw in an image and ask it to describe

82
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:46,080
things for you and get it to tell you something interesting about the image or give you alternatives

83
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,160
or what have you.

84
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:56,680
The ChatGPT vision discussion online has been interesting to see though because people have

85
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,480
found some really advanced capabilities.

86
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,720
And there have been some examples that we've seen already.

87
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:09,280
For example, people creating websites and Figma files based on nothing but a pencil

88
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:10,280
sketch.

89
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:16,840
McKay Wrigley writes, ChatGPT vision breaks down Christopher Nolan's early diagram for

90
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:17,840
inception.

91
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:24,520
The best part, the diagram doesn't mention the word inception once.

92
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:36,240
When you look at the sketch, it's little more than a series of lines showing you the linear

93
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:43,700
progression of multiple timelines from the film Inception.

94
00:07:43,700 --> 00:07:53,760
There is the heist and then the escape at the end and various rough annotations on this

95
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:54,760
sketch.

96
00:07:54,760 --> 00:08:00,720
And the response from ChatGPT is quite something because it's very detailed.

97
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:05,560
It actually starts off saying the diagram appears to be a representation of the dream

98
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,280
levels and the progression of the events in the movie Inception.

99
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:15,360
The movie involves navigating through multiple levels of dreams, each deeper and more time

100
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,840
dilated than the previous one.

101
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:23,520
Let's break down the diagram and then it goes into line by line detail breaking it down.

102
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,520
The conversation of the back of this tweet was really interesting as well as people were

103
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:33,200
saying well, this diagram must have been used in the training data and characters names

104
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:38,100
are mentioned on the diagram, which has led other people to take this even further, doing

105
00:08:38,100 --> 00:08:44,200
an even more crude sketch, removing all of the characters names, in fact, changing all

106
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,440
of the characters names and then repeating the process.

107
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,400
And ChatGPT successfully completed the task.

108
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,760
So it's really quite something.

109
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:59,220
We can see that there's lots of capabilities with ChatGPT Vision.

110
00:08:59,220 --> 00:09:00,600
This has only been out a week.

111
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:06,560
I expect many more interesting and exciting use cases to come to the fore.

112
00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:13,720
But for now, we can say that this is an exciting development for the ChatGPT subscriber user

113
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,280
base.

114
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,920
Next up, we have Dali 3.

115
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:27,440
So sticking with OpenAI, this was a big announcement that they made last week in the text to image

116
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,360
generation field.

117
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:35,520
Dali 3 is set to transform text to image generation with even more nuanced and accurate image

118
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,800
outputs.

119
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:43,960
Slated for full release in early October, it promises enhanced capabilities, especially

120
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,840
for GPT plus and enterprise subscribers.

121
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:53,760
Again, this is an additional feature that is coming to ChatGPT.

122
00:09:53,760 --> 00:10:00,160
Unlike previous iterations where having a full grasp of prompt engineering was really

123
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:07,480
necessary to get the most out of the Dali system, Dali 3 generates images that closely

124
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,640
adhere to the user provided text.

125
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:15,200
And it's built natively into ChatGPT.

126
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:22,600
So the system itself can refine your prompts to produce detailed and very accurate images.

127
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:31,120
Safety has also been prioritized with features to limit violent, adult, or harmful content.

128
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:37,280
Dali 3 won't generate images in the style of living artists, a move likely aimed at

129
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:42,240
respecting creative control and respecting copyright.

130
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:48,920
OpenAI is researching ways to help users identify AI generated images and is developing a provenance

131
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,160
classifier tool for this specific purpose.

132
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,600
How that actually manifests remains to be seen.

133
00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:01,320
But it's an interesting point that they're looking to roll that out to users as well.

134
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:07,360
So Dali 3 presents an absolute treasure trove of opportunities, particularly for creative

135
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,040
ad campaigns, content marketing, and brand storytelling.

136
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,280
In the early demonstrations that we've seen of it, there seems to be things like consistency

137
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:20,680
of character, which is something that's been really hard to get previously.

138
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:27,640
In the example that they put in the demo video, there is a hedgehog character that seems to

139
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:34,760
stay pretty accurate and close to the original version that it creates, despite several different

140
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,980
iterations of images being created after the original.

141
00:11:38,980 --> 00:11:42,960
This is something that's really exciting for producers because, quite frankly, it's the

142
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,360
bit of the puzzle that has been missing.

143
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:56,040
How do we create images that maintain a consistent style and character going forward?

144
00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:02,640
This appears to be available already in chat.bing.com, so if you want to give it a go, you can head

145
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:03,640
over there.

146
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:09,600
I've been playing with it already, and a few noticeable things to mention that it can create

147
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:10,600
text.

148
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:15,520
However, it's inconsistent, and if you're looking for it to create lots of text, it

149
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,880
will soon fall down.

150
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:26,280
The image quality is much higher though, and it does stay much closer to the prompt, far

151
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:32,100
more than any of the other language models and text models that we've seen, such as mid-journey

152
00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:33,800
or stable diffusion.

153
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:42,920
There are just subtle nuances that it understands and can bring into the image better than those

154
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:43,920
other models.

155
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:49,280
I think this is one that's going to be very useful for creatives.

156
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:56,920
The power of this plugged into something like the Adobe Suite will be very welcome for lots

157
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:03,280
of people, and I think this is the kind of model that creatives will want Adobe Generative

158
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:11,560
Fill and Firefly to reach the same levels as very soon.

159
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:16,520
Moving away from new models, now we're going to look at new partnerships.

160
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:21,320
This is a big one announced by Amazon and Anthropic.

161
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:28,040
They've announced that they're tying the knot to supercharge the generative AI capabilities

162
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:32,400
on Amazon Web Services AWS.

163
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:37,000
Amazon is not just backing Anthropic with a token investment.

164
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:47,640
It's going all in with a staggering $4 billion investment, taking a minority stake in Anthropic.

165
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:56,760
It will leverage Amazon's AWS Tranium and Inferentia chips, solidifying AWS as the preferred

166
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,120
cloud partner.

167
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:05,400
Anthropic models are set to feature on Amazon Bedrock, which is Amazon's AI platform, providing

168
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:10,840
AWS customers with the inside track on model customization.

169
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:17,240
In the press release announcing this new partnership, there were some interesting details from

170
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,600
customers of Anthropic and AWS.

171
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,560
So it says the partnership is already making an impact.

172
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:30,360
Chris Wide, SVP of Engineering and Data Science at Lonely Planet, stated that by building

173
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:38,840
with Claude 2 on Amazon Bedrock, they reduced itinerary generation costs by nearly 80%.

174
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:45,880
Bridgewater's co-CIO, Greg Jensen, commented, we are using Amazon Bedrock and Claude's model

175
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:53,080
to create a secure large language model powered investment analyst assistant.

176
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:57,160
It's a bit of a mouthful, but they've created an investment analyst assistant powered by

177
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,160
Claude.

178
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:03,560
If companies like Lonely Planet and Bridgewater can dramatically reduce operational costs

179
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,360
and streamline their research, it makes you wonder what the rest of us could do when we

180
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:12,920
can tap into this cloud environment.

181
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:14,400
So this was quite a big one for me.

182
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,920
I was surprised to see this announcement.

183
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:25,680
Google had previously announced that they had made a significant investment into Anthropic.

184
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:31,920
And it seemed like the Google Cloud Platform was going to be the cloud platform of choice

185
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:33,000
for Anthropic.

186
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,760
But obviously things have taken a bit of a turn.

187
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:43,720
So now we've got Amazon investing $4 billion in Anthropic, Microsoft owning 49% of OpenAI

188
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:54,480
with their $11 billion investment into the AI leader, which leaves Google out there focusing

189
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,960
on its own in-house product development.

190
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,680
So they're not looking to snap up anybody.

191
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:04,560
There doesn't look to be any acquisition strategy right now.

192
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,360
Maybe they might move from one of the smaller players, but I think that they're putting

193
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:14,080
all of their eggs into their own basket and backing themselves to create a great model

194
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:22,000
using something like the upcoming Gemini, which is said to be as powerful as GPT-4 with

195
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,740
some multimodal capabilities as well.

196
00:16:25,740 --> 00:16:32,560
If the rumors are true, we'll find out more about that in Q4 of this year.

197
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:33,760
And so watch this space.

198
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,600
I'm sure me and Paul will talk about it at great length.

199
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:46,280
But for now, Google doesn't look to have much in the way of active industry partnerships

200
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,520
going on.

201
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:53,080
So following on from that story, I just want to take a moment to look at a new article

202
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:58,760
that was published by Anthropic related to Claude.

203
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:05,220
So they've published new research on how to improve their AI assistant Claude's memory

204
00:17:05,220 --> 00:17:07,400
over long documents.

205
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:17,720
So Claude's unique selling point is this 100,000 token character window or context window.

206
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:22,600
And they tested Claude's ability to answer multiple choice questions about government

207
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:29,960
meeting transcripts spanning 75 to 90,000 words.

208
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:35,960
And any prompting modifications, Claude's accuracy dropped substantially on distant

209
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:36,960
passages.

210
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:42,400
However, Anthropic found two techniques that together improved performance.

211
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:51,800
First, if you ask it to extract relevant quote before answering, this boosted scores.

212
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:58,980
And second, by providing examples of correctly answered questions about other sections, they

213
00:17:58,980 --> 00:18:05,040
also found that this was more effective than unrelated examples.

214
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:09,080
With both strategies, Claude's error rate declined by over a third.

215
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:14,180
The newly published Anthropic cookbook, which we will link to in the show notes, also provides

216
00:18:14,180 --> 00:18:18,880
full details and the code to reproduce the experiments.

217
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:24,860
So this quantitative analysis gives creators concrete guidance on prompting Claude for

218
00:18:24,860 --> 00:18:25,860
optimal recall.

219
00:18:25,860 --> 00:18:32,400
So if you really want to get the most out of that 100,000 token context window, introducing

220
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:38,460
these techniques into your prompting is going to get you better results than if you don't

221
00:18:38,460 --> 00:18:39,720
introduce them at all.

222
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:44,960
It's certainly going to be more effective than a zero-shot prompt, such as summarize

223
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:50,080
this article or tell me 10 relevant things from this article.

224
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,560
And actually most of the content is at the early stages of the document.

225
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:59,840
So as AI assistants are increasingly tested on understanding and interpreting long form

226
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:07,520
content, these results offer us as prompters a model for rigorously evaluating different

227
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:16,520
prompting approaches and maximizing our capabilities of getting real high quality outputs.

228
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:22,680
Microsoft is steering into the future of AI with the new assistant Microsoft Copilot set

229
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,040
to become an integral part of its product ecosystem.

230
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:36,640
It's going to be integrated gross Windows 11 and Microsoft Office 365 and Bing and Edge

231
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:41,040
and a bunch of new Microsoft Surface devices.

232
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,000
It is going to be rolled out everywhere.

233
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:49,120
So Copilot is designed to offer personalized assistance by understanding user context,

234
00:19:49,120 --> 00:19:51,620
data and activities.

235
00:19:51,620 --> 00:19:58,400
The enterprise version Microsoft Office 365 Copilot will be generally available starting

236
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,640
November 1st.

237
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:06,280
This work specific assistant aims to streamline operations across office apps, including the

238
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,240
popular apps Outlook and Teams.

239
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:15,180
Not just an enterprise asset, Bing and Edge are also levering up their AI features such

240
00:20:15,180 --> 00:20:20,960
as personalized search results and AI shopping assistant, which could potentially influence

241
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,440
consumer behavior and e-commerce strategies.

242
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:32,000
So we'll have to see how that plays out for marketers looking to use Bing or Edge as a

243
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,120
potential channel.

244
00:20:35,120 --> 00:20:41,960
At a recent event where they went big on describing what Copilot was going to do and how it was

245
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:47,240
going to be rolled out, they also announced that AI capabilities were coming to some of

246
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:53,840
the classic Windows apps such as Microsoft Paint and Microsoft Photos.

247
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:59,680
Now that might come as a disappointment to those of you who, like me, really respect

248
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,920
the simplicity of Microsoft Paint.

249
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:09,360
Bringing in AI to Paint might ruin the vibe, so to speak.

250
00:21:09,360 --> 00:21:15,080
They're also rolling out AI powered capabilities to Clipcham, which is the video editing platform

251
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:22,640
built into Microsoft Windows, which was really a replacement for Microsoft Video Editor.

252
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:27,280
That's the one where I think for SMEs there could be some real value.

253
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:33,280
If you're a small marketing team in an SME and you want to create some cool video content,

254
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:39,560
Clipchamp is already a really affordable and very user friendly way of creating videos

255
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:43,160
for social media and things like that.

256
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:51,080
Having some AI power through Copilot could level up this capability dramatically.

257
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,880
That's the one where I'm quite interested to see what happens there.

258
00:21:54,880 --> 00:22:00,840
Who knows, maybe we'll all be creating our social media graphics using Microsoft Paint

259
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:05,720
once it gets AI powered capabilities within it.

260
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:14,760
Today I opened my Microsoft Surface Pro and found that Copilot is now integrated into

261
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:15,760
Windows.

262
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:23,080
I haven't tried it yet and this happened literally about three hours before recording.

263
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:29,400
I haven't had anywhere like enough time to give you even my first impressions, but it's

264
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,600
definitely something that is here.

265
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:32,600
It's live.

266
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,400
It's in the real world.

267
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:40,160
Hopefully we'll have more news to give you on this front next week.

268
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:48,000
Moving away from models and hardware and software, let's take a look at societal impact.

269
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:54,320
Generative AI and the future of jobs is a report that was recently published by McKinsey.

270
00:22:54,320 --> 00:23:00,080
They've been looking at how AI will dramatically shape the future of jobs and workflows.

271
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:05,760
The report finds generative AI could automate nearly 10% of tasks across the US economy,

272
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:11,840
affecting various roles, especially customer service, food service, production manufacturing

273
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,880
and office support.

274
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:19,080
Lower wage jobs are 14 times more likely to experience this shift compared to higher wage

275
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,360
roles.

276
00:23:20,360 --> 00:23:24,440
However, the economic outlook is not all doom and gloom.

277
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:30,720
McKinsey anticipates GDP growth and creation of higher wage jobs, forecasting 12 million

278
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,640
occupational transitions by 2030.

279
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,640
The catch?

280
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:37,640
Adaptability.

281
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:44,120
Both individuals and organisational adaptability will be key to weathering these changes.

282
00:23:44,120 --> 00:23:50,440
McKinsey suggests targeted reskilling programmes, skills-based hiring and public-private training

283
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:56,120
partnerships as pivotal strategies for a successful transition.

284
00:23:56,120 --> 00:24:01,880
Given that we're in an era where customer centric marketing is data driven, the insights

285
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:08,320
in this report from McKinsey should serve as a warning bell for organisational leaders.

286
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,440
Leaders need to be adaptable.

287
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,100
They need to be planning ahead.

288
00:24:12,100 --> 00:24:18,920
Their workforce is not going to be the same as it is today in just a few years time.

289
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,760
And thinking about what that could look like, making sure that the necessary steps are in

290
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:28,960
place to train and upskill their existing workforce and identify what roles they're

291
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:35,800
going to need for the future is going to be a massive step in managing this organisational

292
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:41,720
change that we're going to see throughout the economy over the next few years.

293
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:48,000
Our advice on the podcast would be to start thinking about improving AI literacy across

294
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:49,640
your organisation.

295
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:58,000
How can you upskill and train your team to help them transition into an AI powered world?

296
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:04,320
This goes beyond just simple prompting techniques, although that is a really key part of it.

297
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:09,160
This is about getting people into the mindset where they see AI as a valuable tool to be

298
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:13,900
using in their day-to-day jobs, an assistant that's going to help them be more productive

299
00:25:13,900 --> 00:25:19,640
and more effective in doing what they need to do each day.

300
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,480
If you'd be interested in learning more about where you can do that, well, turns out me

301
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,480
and Paul have been working with clients doing exactly this.

302
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:32,960
And if you would like to know more about how me and Paul can help your business to improve

303
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:43,380
AI literacy throughout your organisation, then drop us an email at hello at artificiallyintelligentmarketing.com.

304
00:25:43,380 --> 00:25:48,360
So one more story looking at the societal impact of AI, and that is about the public

305
00:25:48,360 --> 00:25:50,600
perception of AI.

306
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:58,200
This is a report that's come from the Bentley Gallup Business in Society study, which found

307
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:03,320
that three out of four Americans believe that artificial intelligence will cut jobs in the

308
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,160
next decade.

309
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:12,400
Surprisingly, those with less than a bachelor's degree are more convinced of this, 80%, compared

310
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,880
to those with a degree, 68%.

311
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:22,240
Age demographics also reveal varying attitudes with younger Americans between 18 and 29 less

312
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,200
pessimistic about AI affecting jobs negatively.

313
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:33,160
The majority of Americans believe AI performs specific tasks as well as or better than humans,

314
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:37,320
be it content customisation or product recommendations.

315
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:42,640
But the general sentiment holds that businesses can't be trusted to use AI responsibly.

316
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:51,960
In fact, a whopping 79% of respondents are sceptical about companies deploying AI ethically.

317
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:59,280
This data really underlines the pressing need for transparent AI usage in business.

318
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:04,280
Marketers can capitalise on the positives, like AI's capacity for task automation and

319
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:09,600
customer personalisation, while addressing the public's concern through clear communication

320
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,760
and ethical AI deployment.

321
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:17,980
Younger demographics seem more open to AI innovations, perhaps indicating a future

322
00:27:17,980 --> 00:27:22,760
market that's more receptive to AI-powered solutions.

323
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:27,200
One way that companies can start to think about the ethical deployment of AI in their

324
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:33,600
workflows is by coming up with an AI charter.

325
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,720
Create an AI council of your workforce.

326
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:40,920
This should be a cross-functional team, one or two people from different departments in

327
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:41,920
your organisation.

328
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:46,040
This team could be a few people big or it could be 30 people big.

329
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,320
It depends on the size of your organisation.

330
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:53,200
Put something in place to bring these people together and say, how are we going to use

331
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,480
AI in our organisation?

332
00:27:55,480 --> 00:28:01,880
This AI council can be responsible for bringing new learnings to the table and sharing them

333
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,680
with the organisation.

334
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:10,280
They can be responsible for drafting company policies about how you are going to use AI

335
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,800
responsibly and ethically.

336
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:17,720
They can be responsible for checking that AI systems that are in place are being used

337
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,640
ethically and responsibly.

338
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:25,920
Once that's been done, meet regularly, monthly, quarterly.

339
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:30,240
Monthly is probably better given the pace of change in this world.

340
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:34,720
But just make sure that there is something taking place where the AI council have a way

341
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:41,760
to feed in to the responsible use of AI in your company going forward.

342
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:48,200
Now our final story of the day is for the Salesforce subscribers that are listening.

343
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:52,300
Salesforce has unveiled Einstein Copilot, a conversational AI assistant designed to

344
00:28:52,300 --> 00:28:55,880
boost productivity across various business functions.

345
00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:00,400
It's seamlessly integrated into the Salesforce app, offering personalised and context aware

346
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,360
answers driven by Salesforce data cloud.

347
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:12,360
So for businesses seeking more tailored solutions, Einstein Copilot Studio enables the customisation

348
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:17,320
of the assistant with unique prompts, skills and AI models.

349
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:22,960
This suite of features can be applied across multiple CRM workflows and even consumer facing

350
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:24,720
channels such as chatbots.

351
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:31,040
So effectively what they're offering here is a fine tuning studio where you can customise

352
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,160
the tools to your requirements.

353
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,800
Key to this launch is the Einstein Trust Layer.

354
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:38,800
This is interesting.

355
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,080
It's an architecture that safeguards data privacy.

356
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,460
At the enterprise level, this is critical.

357
00:29:45,460 --> 00:29:50,560
This assures that data is not stored by third parties and masks personally identifiable

358
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:56,320
information, all while keeping an eye out for toxic content.

359
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:01,680
These are big considerations whenever speaking to enterprises about deploying large language

360
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:02,680
models.

361
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:07,560
So it's interesting to see exactly how this is going to work.

362
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:12,360
I'm going to be keeping a close eye on this for sure.

363
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:19,520
But yeah, Einstein and Copilot brings together AI with data driven decision making and customisation,

364
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:26,600
which is relevant for marketing and operations teams to get what they need from their own

365
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,920
data hooked up to language models.

366
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:36,040
The ability to customise the AI for specific tasks in sales and marketing funnel will mean

367
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:40,360
more efficient workflows, more personalisation.

368
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:46,280
And with that extra layer of the trust layer, this addresses those growing concerns about

369
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:53,040
data privacy in an era of AI powered tools.

370
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:59,440
It sounds to me like Salesforce understand their audience very well, no surprise there,

371
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:04,520
and that they are setting the new standard for data privacy in the use of large language

372
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:09,400
models and AI for enterprise businesses.

373
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:14,160
How this plays out remains to be seen, but I for one, I'm looking forward to seeing exactly

374
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:19,160
what happens when businesses start to adopt this new technology.

375
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:23,960
That's all we have time for in this week's episode.

376
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:30,400
