1. OpenAI Introduces Search GPT: An AI-Driven Search Engine
I
First up, Search GPT—a new tool from the creators of ChatGPT, OpenAI. This innovative AI-driven search engine combines advanced AI models with real-time web information to deliver summarized answers to your queries.
Imagine a search engine like Google, but instead of sifting through numerous links, you receive a concise summary of all the relevant information, complete with links to the original sources. One of the standout features is its conversational interface, similar to ChatGPT, allowing you to ask follow-up questions based on the results.
Powered by GPT-4, Search GPT is currently in beta testing with a group of 10,000 users. If you're interested in joining the beta, log in to your ChatGPT account and sign up for the waitlist.
2. Meta Releases SAM2: The Segment Anything Model
Next on the list is breaking news from Meta. They've released a new model named SAM2 or Segment Anything Model 2. This model can automatically detect and track objects you mark in a video with remarkable precision.
For example, if you're throwing a ball, SAM2 can effortlessly track its movement and allow you to apply effects or edits seamlessly. There's an online demo available where you can test it with your own videos or use provided demo clips. You can also download the model to experiment on your own setup.
This tool has significant implications for video editing, making complex tracking tasks more accessible to creators and professionals alike.
