Bad AI: It's Easy To Fake

Fakery on a stick

 

Your favourite search giant has got an updated AI image-manipulating tool called "Reimagine" available on their Pixel 9 range of phones.

Who cares? We've had image tweaking for ages. Well, you should - this sucker is on another level for ease and results.

And it's not just potholes. It'll let you add corpses, car wrecks, or blood-splattered body parts at the touch of a button. Your boring digitals can look like a scene of Carrie instantly. All you need is a modicum of creative prompting and you're away.

The safeguards seem easy to get around, and the images are not marked as AI.

AI watermarking is likely something that will change very soon - see AI EU Act.

What this means for businesses:

Brace for impact. With more AI-generated chaos just a text prompt away, your brand image could go from squeaky clean to crime scene in seconds. Talk to us about mitigating risk.

 

Get AI Aligned: Team Insights

AI Team Insights

 

Where do we start with AI?

It's a question we get asked a lot. One valuable place to begin your AI journey is by understanding how your executive, management, and wider teams really feel, find out what they're doing, and uncover what they know.

Why does this matter? It uncovers insight, aligns teams, and highlights where to channel your efforts.

Here's the approach:

  • Take the Pulse: Gauge the fear v excitement and concerns around AI to steer your strategy with more confidence.
  • Reduce Risk: Even if you're not using AI in your business right now, your people are. Making sure they are trained and using AI in the right way reduces key business risks.
  • Uncover Hidden Insights: Your teams know more than they can easily express. Their insights can reveal the key challenges where AI can make the biggest impact.
  • Shape Your AI Strategy: Use the data to pinpoint top priorities, whether it’s targeted training, automating repetitive tasks, or gathering more insight from data.

AI Tips & Tricks: Grok Cheat Sheet

 

It’s the new ChatGPT competitor, led by Elon Musk and X. Version 1 was released in March of this year, and Version 2 has just dropped.

It's still a bit of an unknown outside of AI circles, but worth a look as it compares well with more established LLMs like Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT.

AI Insights: ChatGPT Usage

 

ChatGPT is still a long way from widespread adoption.

Unsurprisingly, 18-24-year-olds are the heaviest users (help me write this coursework that's due tomorrow morning...). But, amongst 12,000 people, 44% said they had never used ChatGPT.

So there’s still plenty of room for growth. OpenAI has recently become the world's third-highest-valued unicorn, at a staggering $80 billion. It trails behind only Chinese tech company ByteDance ($225 billion) and Elon Musk's SpaceX ($150 billion).
