This week the AI hype is thrown all over the place, from windows to Amazon's Anthropic stuff.

The highlights of the week:

1. Window's new spy feature: Recall
   First of all this is literally an implementation of an AI Spyware. It screenshots your screen every-time it tracks an activity, and it's contents are kept in plain text 🤦🏻‍♂️
2. Claude 3.5 Sonet by Amazon​
   Another day, another model, now the bar is to beat GPT-4o, and it claims to do so.

​Windows Recall​

They better recall it. Duh, while this feature could be potentially a wonderful thing for humanity, it's execution is as poor as the name. What do you call a recall? Holy cow, no company ever thought of a recall in a good way. One of the worst marketing term one could've invented 😅

Anyways what is this, and what's the fuss about it?

1. It takes screenshots of your screen, every time it sees an activity;
2. It recognizes the text, and saves it in plain text;
3. It then allows you to recall what have you done 5 minutes ago by searching through-out your search history.

I can't see anything flawed in this work-flow 😂... One of the most critical things here is, it will definitely take screenshots of your credit card details and keep them in plain text.

Imagine somebody being able to just look at your entire history of what you did at your computer literally step by step, this is exactly this. In case you ever loose your laptop, loose the access to your computer, you're simply put - doomed 😈. As the attacker will be able to just check-out all of your history, and this person can impersonate you, better than you could, because all he needs to do is look into your history. Reminds me of that movie with Sandra Bullock where she got her life hacked.

Damn, can't even think of a worse feature to be implemented. We all know how secure is microsoft and it's reputation for disallowing intruders into your computers.

Wait, it's even worse, if you use a company computer, the System Administrator, and upper management, will always be able to just check whatever you did remotely, even without your consent, because that's how company computers work. So if you slacked or said something bad about your boss in a company chat, now everybody will know about this! Now I can't talk shit about my boss 😱!

Lastly, something that is kind of dumb and makes me laugh is the system requirements for this feature:

This means it'll make your computer slow, simply because it has to process all that information in the background.

What a move microsoft 😂

​Claude 3.5 Sonnet​

What is this and how can you eat it? It's a new model that can execute mathematical functions better and faster than we could previously do. Translating into better accuracy and faster response time. I mean OpenAI had fun during their presentation, presenting GPT-4o translating from one language to another. It made it looks actually good. Anthropic wrote a blog post. I guess everybody treats fun differently. Says the person who is writing a newsletter for fun... why would I even complain 😂

Anyways text generation aside they presented a really cool feature called Artifacts. What this means, is that Claude can now generate files you can run on your computer. Their demo is pretty sick. They generate a video game from a couple of prompts, and frankly looks really neat. The game should be called Mr. Krabs hunting shells without an internet connection.

​

It's impressive that the algorithm is able to write the code without any errors and the user could run easily, that said the demo looks heavily edited and could hide behind a lot of manual labor 🤷

Anthropic can make an Google like ooopsie and hide all the heavy lifting for investor reasons, we'll find out soon enough, when people start complaining about it on twitter 😅

That said the idea of Artifacts as is, sounds very cool. We'll definitely see this persistent all over the place, because it transfers the Large Language Model, from a text generation into something way more impressive and capable, it is now truly a comprehensive assistant for users.

I could even say that in a very near future OpenAI will re-label this feature and sell it to the majority of users.

That's it folks, see you next week ❤️️️️️️️

Happy Prompting!
