Artificial intelligence sees us younger
At one of the conferences where I gave a lecture on AI, they talked about the changes that are taking place and whether the content and messages that appear on the websites (for those who have them) are relevant. This made me realize that I had to update the old photos that appeared in it in my photos. There was only a small problem – I didn’t have professional photos. So I turned to my good friend – AI. I trained a model with about 30 of my images and then created a set of professional images. It’s interesting that artificial intelligence sees a lot of us creating young people. She made me at least 10 years younger. I have no complaints, but I would prefer you to make my photos age-appropriate, but obviously it’s a matter of time.
Lectures and workshops in organizations
I conduct practical workshops on the correct use of large language models such as ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, Gemini, on advanced use with ChatGPT 4o and other AI tools that save time and increase productivity. If you want to bring a lecture or workshop to your organization, contact me.
People with paralysis and inability to speak will be able to speak again with the help of AI
A guy named Casey Harrell is dealing with ALS, a muscular dystrophy that has left him paralyzed and slurring his speech. Researchers from the University of California, were able to interpret and reproduce Casey’s voice by monitoring electrical activity in his brain and using AI. Casey managed to communicate 6,000 words with an accuracy level of 97.5% – in a voice similar to his own. Link to an article published in the New York Times.
