Snapchat introduces ChatGPT-like powerful tool free for all users

Published

on

Snapchat has announced that it will be offering its GPT-powered AI chatbot, My AI, to every user for free at its annual developer conference. 

The move comes as the company aims to differentiate itself from its rivals, TikTok and Instagram. Previously, My AI was only available to paying members of Snapchat’s Snapchat+ subscription service. Users can now ask My AI factual questions, request creative content, and have back-and-forth conversations with the service, much like with ChatGPT. In addition, users can add My AI to group chats and even send photos to their AI helpers and receive AI-generated images in return. 

The AI chatbot is a critical part of Snap’s future, said Snap CEO Evan Spiegel, and sees the technology as “an awesome creative tool.” The chatbot has already been well-received, with more than 2 million chats per day already happening with My AI.

Snapchat is also introducing new tools to encourage creators to go viral on the platform. The new tools will allow creators to run a public page while posting privately for friends and family. 

Snapchat’s focus is on private communication, said Snap’s vice president of product, Jack Brody, but the new tools aim to split the difference. Eligible users will need at least 50,000 followers on the app, with 25m views and at least 10 public posts a month. If they meet the requirements, the company says it’s committed to helping them build a business and grow their audience, not rely on off-platform opportunities to earn money from their fame.

My AI was previously criticised for being inappropriate for Snapchat’s young users. In tests run by The Washington Post, the bot cheerily gave advice to a reporter claiming to be 12 years old about how to plan a “surprise trip” with their “30-year-old boyfriend,” where they intended to have sex for the first time. Now that the paid trial period is over, Brody says, the app will be more careful about providing age-appropriate advice.

Snapchat’s decision to offer My AI to every user for free is an attempt to differentiate itself from its rivals, TikTok and Instagram. The AI chatbot has already been well-received and will be an important part of Snap’s future.

A reward of up to $1 million has been offered by the multinational computer giant Apple to anyone who breaches its Private Cloud Compute, which will integrate artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.

The corporation recently posted a blog post titled “Security research on Private Cloud Compute,” in which it offered a reward to anyone who could find cloud service vulnerabilities that could endanger the service.

The news coincided with Apple’s planned release of iOS 18.1 and Apple Intelligence on iPhones the following week.

For the first time, the update will also bring AI capabilities to the iPhone, such improvements to Siri, the speech assistant.

The tech giant will use its own silicon servers to power the Private Cloud computation, which it describes as “the most advanced security architecture ever deployed for cloud AI compute at scale.”

“We made resources to facilitate this inspection, such as the PCC Virtual Research Environment, available to third-party auditors and a few security researchers in advance in the weeks following our announcement of Apple Intelligence and PCC,” Apple stated in the blog.

The business has extended an invitation to researchers, security experts, and anybody else who wants to pinpoint the platform’s weaknesses.

In addition to giving $1 million for identifying significant vulnerabilities through “remote attack on request data,” the corporation is rewarding anyone who can gain access to sensitive information or user request data outside the boundaries of trust with $250,000.

Apple went on to say, “We will consider any security issue that has a significant impact to PCC for an Apple Security Bounty reward, even if it doesn’t match a published category, because we care deeply about any compromise to user privacy or security.”

It would “consider each report based on the quality of the information provided, the evidence of what can be exploited, and the impact to users,” according to Apple.

Visit the Apple Security Prize page to submit your research and learn more about the project, which is open to anybody interested in participating and winning the prize.

According to reports, WhatsApp is developing two intriguing new features that would improve the user experience. Several reports indicate that one of these enhancements is aimed at enhancing the way users organize their sticker collections.

Details reveal that users will soon be able to quickly arrange their stickers by adding them to their favorites or selecting many stickers at once for deletion, which will move them to the top for easy access.

Users will also be able to make their own personalized sticker packs within WhatsApp thanks to this future functionality. Users have more control over their collections and can add or delete stickers as necessary to maintain a unique and customized look. Additionally, group conversations and contacts can be used to share these personalized sticker packs.

Additionally, it has been rumored that WhatsApp is developing a new function that would enable users to exchange music via status updates. When users post a picture or a video to their status, a music button will be added to the drawing editor.

Even while these capabilities are still in the early stages of development, they should be included in upcoming updates, giving WhatsApp users more imaginative options.
