Gm. I know I talked about football on Monday, but damn, if youโre a Jets fan, I am so, so, sorry. Even as a Patriots fan I canโt help but feel bad for Rodgers and the fanbase. If anyone needs to vent, my DMs are always open ๐ซก

Metaโs Open-Source GPT-4

Weโve spent a lot of time in recent weeks talking about Metaโs AI exploits. And thatโs for a good reason. They just keep releasing banger after banger:
Llama 2 is the best open-source model on Godโs green Earth.
SeamlessM4T is a very impressive translator.
Code Llama might already be as good at coding as GPT-4.
CM3Leon is a โstate-of-the-artโ art-generating model.
Thatโs a lot of heat in a short amount of time.
But none of that compares to what Meta has cooking in the lab:
A new open-source model that is several times stronger than Llama 2. This would make it as powerful as GPT-4, the current gold standard for AI models (at least until Googleโs Gemini model comes out).
Naturally, details are hard to come by, but we do know that:
Meta will start training the model in early 2024.
They are acquiring the infrastructure necessary to make the models a reality (read: many more Nvidia chips).
Zuck wants the model to be open-source.
Besides being extremely cool, this whole shindig is savvy on Metaโs part for several reasons:
Open-sourcing the model will likely lead to developers improving it. Meta can then use the improved model in their own products. Itโs basically free R&D.
If the model is used to create good products, fewer people will use Metaโs competitors. This is obviously ideal for Team Zuck.
Sign us up for this party.
The Big Picture: Meta may have been a bit late to the AI party, but they are definitely making noise now.

Letโs Go (TikTok) Shopping

I love TikTok. Basically everyone I know loves TikTok. We can easily spend the afternoon swiping and swiping and swiping.
Does it take up a good amount of my time? Yeah. But hey, at least it doesnโt take my money.
Oh wait, now it will.
Thatโs because TikTok has officially launched its in-app shopping feature.
Dubbed TikTok Shop, the new feature will add in-feed live shopping, product reviews, and marketing opportunities to the For You Page (FYP).
This is a big move for a lot of different demographics:
If youโre a TikTok addict, then you might now be spending money on this damn app.
If youโre a lover of pure social media, you have to just hope TikTok doesnโt go the way of Instagram. A FYP full of ads would just beโฆugh.
If youโre in the e-commerce business, congrats; another big revenue stream might have just opened up.
If youโre a regulator, then you canโt love that TikTok will now be collecting peopleโs payment information.
In any case, as if you needed a reminder:
Thereโs never been a better time to be a creator.
TikTok wears the crown.
The Bottom Line: The worldโs most addicting app might have just become a bit more so.
