| | AI JOURNALISM | | | News Corp is diving into negotiations with AI companies to try and solve the copyright issues of training AI models on their news. | Robert Thomson, the big boss, says they'd rather talk it out than sue. | A compromise | Thomson's thinks AI companies should be paying to access this content. | News Corp is already deep into talks with the AI big shots. | They're hoping to set some rules that'll help journalists and keep the AI game fair. | Thomson gave special praise to OpenAI and its CEO, Sam Altman, in his remarks. | Now, not all publishers are handling AI the same way. | It's not all smooth sailing | The Guardian, on the other hand, has stopped OpenAI from using its content. | Some are making deals, like the Associated Press has with the ChatGPT creators. | Others, like The New York Times, are taking legal action for a piece of the pie. | News Corp's got its eyes on the future. | They see AI-produced content as inevitable and don't want to miss out | AND, they're making serious money from digital streaming now, shifting away from the old print days. | In the last quarter of 2023, News Corp's revenue increased by 3%, hitting $2.6 billion. | Thomson is feeling optimistic about the shift to digital and subscription models. | Our View: | The end game is money - all the media companies will fold when a big enough pie is presented to them. | Should AI companies pay for news? | | Vote for live results and see results + opinions from yesterday at the bottom of the email. |

| | AI BREAKTHROUGH | | | Huawei's Noah's Ark Lab in Paris has some groundbreaking ideas about"embodied artificial intelligence" (E-AI). | They think it could be the next big step towards creating artificial general intelligence (AGI), you know, the kind of AI that can handle any task you throw at it. | Now, AGI has been the holy grail for a while. They're creating AI that thinks like a human – now THAT'S pretty ambitious stuff! | Companies like OpenAI have been all about this, pouring their energy into making it happen. | So, here's the deal: Remember those super-sized language models, like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini? | Well, the Huawei team thinks they're missing something crucial – real-world experience. | These models are huge, but they're kind of like brains in a jar. | They need to get out there and experience the world firsthand. | That's where embodied AI comes in. | They want to give AI the ability to see, hear, and interact with the world just like we do. | The Huawei team says AI needs eyes and ears of its own to truly understand what's going on. | They're talking about perception – AI being able to take in information from the real world and process it on its own. | And it's not just about seeing and hearing; it's about learning from actions, too. | Like when you touch something hot and learn not to do it again, AI needs that kind of learning experience. | Now, the Huawei researchers have a plan. They've laid out a framework for how we could get there, eventually. | But, there are some big hurdles to jump. | These super-smart AI models we have now? They live in the cloud, not out in the world. | So, getting them to embody AI? That's going to take some serious tech wizardry. | Our View: | The first step towards our robot servants! |
