AI Daily News: Saturday November 2, 2024 - Runway Camera Control & Perplexity Election Discussion

Welcome to AI News! Brought to you by ReallyEasyAI - https://www.youtube.com/@reallyeasyai First up, Runway has just announced the release of Advanced Camera Control for Gen-3 Alpha Turbo. Choose both the direction and intensity of how you move through your scenes for even more intention in every shot. Next up, Reuters is reporting that Walt Disney is forming a new business unit to coordinate the use of AI and augmented reality across its film, television, and theme park divisions. The newly formed Office of Technology Enablement will be led by Jamie Voris, the film studio's chief technology officer. Pretty cool huh? But that's not all. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Visa has deployed hundreds of AI use cases and it's not stopping. The payments giant is streamlining its international business and cutting jobs. President of Technology Rajat Taneja said the company already has more than 500 generative AI applications in use. And if that wasn't enough to blow your mind, Google has just announced the release of Gemini in the side panel of Google Chat. For the last few months, users with Gemini for Google Workspace add-ons have used Gemini in the side panel of Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drive. Earlier this month, Gemini add-on subscribers began using Gemini in Google Chat for summaries of unread conversations in the home view. Pretty cool right? Next, we have some news from TechCrunch that shows that Microsoft and a16z have joined hands in a plea against AI regulation. This is not a drill. And finally, Anthropic has made a case for targeted regulation. They make some compelling points, but I will let you decide for yourselves. I've included several links in the description below for you all to check out. Good luck and I'll catch you next time.
