No two weeks are the same in the world of GenAI, and this week has been no exception. Jeremy Lockhorn breaks down the latest flurry of AI developments into bite-sized chunks for marketers and agency professionals in this edition of #NoteworthyNews. 📈 A recent study by Digitas and Vox Media indicates that while AI may lead on the efficiency front, human creativity, originality and authenticity still remain key. 📢 That said, popular iPad design app Procreate vows never to use GenAI in its products, calling the technology a "threat to human creativity!" 🎇 On the other hand, the release of OpenAI's GPT-4 Turbo promises to revolutionize content creation alongside more exciting news in the image generation world. 🌎 All this unfolds as data centers continue to raise grave environmental concerns, legislative conundrums multiply and companies implementing AI encounter risks while seeing gains. The GenAI journey is complex. There are many questions, no easy answers and choosing not to travel is no longer an option. We hope you'll use our weekly #NoteworthyAINews #4AsNoteworthyAINews editions as one of your guides. Check out today's post:
