Meta just announced Voicebox, the first generative AI speech model that ācan do tasks it wasnāt specifically trained onā. Pretty much, you can upload a sample of your voice and have it output your voice in a number of completely different languages! Mark Zuckerberg uploaded an example of him on Instagram speaking English and outputting his voice in perfect Portuguese. Insane.
You can play around with some speech models on the following demo website.
At this point, there really should be a āMeta Open Sourceā section of the newsletter.
š Google is slacking

Remember when I talked about Bard, Googleās answer to ChatGPT? Well, it still hasnāt been released in Canada. Google has really been dropping the ball recentlyā¦
š GPT Engineer is picking up steam

The hottest new tool just hit 16k stars on GitHub.
GPT Engineer is an AI agent that can code anything you want it to. As a result, with the right feedback, you can finish a project in minutes.
If youāre not on the agent train yet, better get started ASAP; the GitHub repo is linked below.

Midjourney keeps getting better and better. Here are some non-car products from Lamborghini:

The Lamborghini Bullet Train

The Lamborghini Blender āfor high octane smoothies

The Lamborghini Tractor. Fun fact: Lamborghini was originally a tractor company! When the owner was unsatisfied with his Ferrari, he made a competitor company out of spite. In an alternate reality where they still made tractors, maybe it would look like this?
