🚨 Breaking AI News

Yesterday, Google announced their new Duet AI feature, "Help me organize", for Google Sheets as part of their Workspace Labs. It was first announced at their developer conference, the I/O 2023 event.

In only a couple steps, you can access this and Google's whole workspace collection:

  • Join Google Labs: If you have not signed up for Google workspaces yet, you can do so here. You must be 18 years or older, and use your personal Gmail address

  • Navigate to Google Sheets: Unlike the Google Docs AI functionality, this is rolling out gradually, so you may not have access right away. But once you gain access, open a new spreadsheet or tab in Google Sheets. And the "Help Me Organize" sidebar will automatically open.

  • Show off your prompting skills: Duet AI responds to prompts generated by you. Write instructions for the AI for the best results. Example: "Track tasks for a project to build a new website" and click create. Once it is done, you can edit your data like any other spreadsheet.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) plans to invest $100 million to establish a center focusing on generative AI. Amazon is the 5th largest company in the world, following Google and Microsoft, who are miles ahead of them in the AI race.

The center will host data scientists, engineers, and solution architects. With initial collaborations involving Highspot, Twilio, RyanAir, and Lonely Planet. Amazon described it as a “program” rather than a physical center.

AWS CEO Adam Selipsky said AI will be the "next wave of innovation in the cloud" and will drive more customers towards cloud services. Despite criticisms around security issues with AI models like ChatGPT, which just fell victim to a hack. Selipsky believes that AWS has credibility in the AI space and can improve on security failures.

Daily Definition

Structured Data

'Structured Data' is a kind of data that is organized in a predetermined manner or format, making it easily searchable in databases. The 'structure' of structured data comes from its arrangement in rows and columns, similar to what you would find in an Excel spreadsheet or a database table. Each row often represents an individual record, and each column represents a specific attribute of that record.

For example, if you have a database of customers, each row might represent a single customer, and the columns might represent attributes like the customer's name, email address, and purchase history. This orderly arrangement makes it easier to sort, search, and analyze structured data using traditional database management systems.

In the context of AI, structured data plays a crucial role. Machine learning algorithms, which are a subset of AI, use structured data to learn patterns and make predictions. The algorithm might analyze a structured dataset of customer information to predict which customers are most likely to make a purchase in the future.
