| | | What are you doing for work? | | | The Noodle Network Tech and AI: Seasoned with a Dash of Humor | December 17, 2024 | Here's today's tech round-up, where AI quietly infiltrates everything, home robots are back, and Google thinks your vacation selfies need an upgrade. Oh, and YouTube is letting creators loan their videos to AI—because why not monetize that awkward vlog from 2016? Let's dig in. | | Cohere + Palantir: The Quiet Power Couple | Cohere is teaming up with Palantir to deploy its AI models, and they're being about as loud as a cat sneaking into the kitchen at midnight. Palantir—known for its work with governments and data wrangling—bringing Cohere's AI into the mix means one thing: AI is coming for some seriously complex problems. While the two are playing it cool, this partnership screams "tech with a purpose," or maybe just "world domination, softly whispered." Either way, expect big things—just don't expect them to tell you what they're up to. | | | | | Home Robots 2.0: iRobot's Co-Founder Wants a Comeback | The co-founder of iRobot (aka the people who made your Roomba) has a new home robot startup and is looking to raise $30M. They haven't revealed what the robots will do, but we can only hope it's slightly more ambitious than vacuuming around your sneakers. Will they cook? Fold laundry? Judge our life choices while dusting the shelves? Who knows! All I'm saying is: if these new bots don't bring snacks, I'm out. | | | | | OpenAI Expands Web Search Tool: "Let Me Ask ChatGPT" Goes Mainstream | OpenAI is rolling out its AI-powered web search tool to more ChatGPT users, meaning the days of switching tabs to Google "who invented pizza" are over. Now, ChatGPT will do the heavy lifting for you—because multitasking is so 2023. This feature turns ChatGPT into a one-stop shop for answers, research, and probably some weird trivia you didn't ask for. Google's search bar might start getting jealous. | | | | | Google's Image Generator: Three Pics, One Creation | Google is experimenting with an image generator that remixes three pictures into one new creation. So if you've got a photo of your dog, a sunset, and a slice of pizza, Google can mash them together into a masterpiece that says, "Here's my perfect day." It's fun, slightly chaotic, and sounds like every designer's worst nightmare. For the rest of us, it's the perfect way to confuse our friends with AI-generated "art" that probably belongs on the fridge. | | | | | YouTube Lets Creators Opt In to AI Training: Monetize That Cringe Content | YouTube is now letting creators opt in to have their videos used for AI training. So if you've ever dreamed of your cat videos helping train the next generation of artificial intelligence, this is your moment. Creators might be torn between "cool, extra cash!" and "wait, what's the AI doing with my yoga tutorials?" Either way, it's a new way for YouTubers to get paid—and a new way for AI to finally learn the intricacies of unboxing videos. | | | | | That's your daily dose of tech updates: robots raising money, AI expanding its reach, Google getting creative with photos, and YouTube letting creators make AI smarter—whether they like it or not. | Reply to this email with a wild idea for a home robot. I'm thinking one that politely judges me for my DoorDash addiction while delivering it. | Talk soon, 🍜💾🤖 | What'd you think of today's email? | | | |
