Meta launches AI app to compete with ChatGPT

Meta has launched a standalone AI application during its LlamaCon event, providing users with direct access to Meta AI similar to OpenAI's ChatGPT. The app, available in the U.S. and Canada, utilizes user data from platforms like Facebook and Instagram to deliver personalized interactions. Users can enhance the AI's memory by sharing additional information. The app employs the Llama 4 model, offering advanced features such as image generation and editing, a voice mode for interaction, and a “discover” feed. Since its integration across platforms in 2023, Meta's AI assistant has attracted nearly 600 million monthly users as of December 2024.

ChatGPT chief says OpenAI would buy Chrome if Google is forced to sell

Nick Turley, chief of OpenAI's ChatGPT, expressed interest in acquiring Google's Chrome browser during a court hearing for the Department of Justice's antitrust trial against Google. He stated that many parties, including OpenAI, would be interested in such an acquisition to address concerns about Google's monopoly. Turley emphasized the potential for an "AI-first experience" if OpenAI integrated Chrome, while also noting challenges in entering the Android market due to Google's Gemini technology. He highlighted that tech giants like Google control key access points for product discovery, which complicates competition for OpenAI. In response, Google maintains that its products are preferred by users and has entered a two-year agreement with Samsung to preinstall its Gemini AI on devices, with other tech companies also making competitive offers. Google's revenue heavily relies on its Search and advertising segments, which generated .39 billion in Q3 2024. The ongoing trial may lead to significant changes in user interactions with Google products.

Gemini’s rumored automated tasks might borrow from the competition

Google is developing a feature called "Scheduled Actions" for its Gemini app, which will use a card-based interface to manage tasks with status markers like "Completed" and "Paused." This feature aims to automate task management and may integrate elements from Google Tasks and OpenAI's ChatGPT. The introduction of "Scheduled Actions" could change how users handle reminders and tasks on Android, especially as it appears to draw inspiration from OpenAI's similar feature for managing tasks with AI capabilities. The development of this feature is still in early stages, and its final form may change before release.

Microsoft’s Windows Recall should’ve been everything Opera’s Browser Operator promises to be on paper — an AI agent with a “pause button” to preserve user privacy

Generative AI is changing digital interactions, particularly with AI-driven chatbots like Microsoft Copilot and OpenAI's ChatGPT, which may challenge Google's search dominance. Opera has launched Browser Operator, an AI agent that automates routine browsing tasks and operates natively within the browser, protecting user credentials. It understands natural language instructions and pauses for user input during sensitive actions. Opera emphasizes that Browser Operator does not send any user information to its servers and uses a textual representation of web pages for context. The tool can handle cookie prompts and verification dialogs without hindering functionality. Currently in preview mode, Browser Operator will be rolled out widely and can be accessed from Opera's sidebar or Command Line.

Microsoft quietly updates Copilot to cut down on unauthorized Windows activations

Microsoft has updated Windows Copilot to fix a vulnerability that allowed the AI assistant to inadvertently help users bypass licensing protocols for its operating system. The update prevents Copilot from recommending third-party tools that could facilitate piracy. Although Windows 11 activations are still available online, the AI assistant will no longer promote these options. This change reflects Microsoft's commitment to regulating AI-generated content. Since its launch in November 2023, Copilot has undergone discussions about updates and redesigns, including a visual overhaul in October 2024 to improve interaction with online and local content. The update aims to enhance Copilot's competitiveness against other AI assistants like X's Grok, Google Gemini, and OpenAI's ChatGPT, ensuring that it does not facilitate security bypassing.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is set to share insights on the company's future in artificial intelligence at a gathering in Chicago. Developers are increasingly viewing the next generation of generative AI chatbots as "agents" that can perform various tasks for users, but high development and maintenance costs have raised concerns among investors about the benefits. Microsoft envisions a future where every organization will have a range of AI agents, from basic to fully autonomous systems, capable of tasks like managing customer returns and analyzing shipping invoices. At the Ignite conference, there is a focus on "agentic AI" as users face limitations with current large language models. However, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff has criticized Microsoft's rebranding efforts, calling its Copilot service a "flop" due to inaccuracies and data security risks.
