🎄 2023 - THE YEAR AI TOOK OVER!

In 2023, AI took off! Let’s look back on some of the AI highlights of the year this Christmas…

From work to… worship

AI got everywhere this year.

2023 saw it integrate seamlessly into our routines.

ChatGPT's leap to 100 million users by February underscored its dominance. It became the fastest-growing new platform ever.

Google’s Bard and Microsoft’s Bing Chat raced to catch up. Yet, ChatGPT held the crown.

And who knew the Pope could rock a Balenciaga puffer coat?

The famous image went viral, stirring up discussions on the ethical use and misuse of AI, and putting AI image gen into the public conscience.

And who could forget the church sermons delivered by ChatGPT?

this is completely unrelated to the story.

AI laws and job shake-ups

The AI wave didn't just bring cool tools; it stirred up some serious debates.

The EU set the tone with its "AI Law," while the UK opted for a softer, more welcoming approach to AI firms - deciding to hold off on harsh regulation in favour of innovation.

Meanwhile, the US juggled between them.

Geoffrey Hinton, the “godfather of AI”, quit Google, raising the alarm about the dangers of unchecked AI.

His departure was a reminder of AI’s potential risks.

On the job front, people started rushing to upskill to stay one step ahead.

Maybe you even signed up to a newsletter to keep you on top of what’s happening in AI…

Mindstream launched in June and has never looked back!

The healthcare sector is leaning heavily on AI, too, from diagnostics to drug discovery. It’s been an amazing year for healthcare advances.

Soon AI will help us all live longer!

The drama of the year…

And who can forget the drama at OpenAI? Sam Altman's brief exit and return was a real plot twist, we can’t wait for the Netflix series!

The shortage of high-power graphics chips, crucial for AI operations, hit companies hard - Nvidia’s stock skyrocketed thanks to their monopoly on AI powerhouse chips.

OpenAI had to put a 'Sorry, we're full' sign on ChatGPT signups due to insane demand at the launch of GPTs.

Wary of China’s technological ambitions, the US tightened chip export controls - how will this play out in 2024?

Phew. That was 2023 in a wrap for you.

Here's to more mind-boggling developments in 2024!

OUR VIEW:

What an incredible year it has been! Mindstream is barely 6 months old and yet the pace of AI developments makes it feel like we’ve been going for years!

🎄 A CHRISTMAS POEM BY CHATGPT

In a town where snowflakes gently fall, Amongst the lights that twinkle bright, There's laughter heard from big and small, As Christmas Eve turns into night.

Santa's sleigh, up in the sky, Reindeer prancing, spirits high, With a ho-ho-ho and a twinkle in his eye, He spreads joy as he flies by.

The trees are dressed in glittering gowns, Presents wrapped with care beneath, While carolers sing through the towns, Warming hearts like a festive wreath.

Cookies baked, so warm and sweet, Milk set out, a tasty treat, For a jolly visitor with quick, light feet, Leaving gifts, his yearly feat.

Snowmen stand with carrot noses, Scarves around their snowy necks, Winter's charm, it just imposes, A season full of magic specs.

So here's to joy, to love, to cheer, To memories we hold so dear, May your Christmas be merry, never drear, Bringing smiles, year after year!
