🚀 ChatGPT Creator - OpenAI - would be worth $29 Billion

OpenAI, the research lab behind the viral ChatGPT chatbot, is in talks to sell existing shares in a tender offer that would value the company at around $29 billion, according to people familiar with the matter, making it one of the most valuable U.S. startups on paper despite generating little revenue.

⛔️ ChatGPT Backlash

Organizations including the International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML) and the New York Department of Education banned OpenAI's ChatGPT amid debate over the implications of its use and limitations of its output.
Professional societies, schools, and social media sites alike reacted to the potential of ChatGPT and other large language models to produce falsehoods, socially biased information, and other undesirable output in the guise of reasonable-sounding text.

🤖 DoNotPay, your personal AI Agent

Joshua Browder, chief executive of the consumer advocacy organization DoNotPay, demonstrated a system that autonomously navigates phone menus and converses with customer service representatives in a deepfaked version of his own voice. DoNotPay plans to offer a free version that uses generic voices as well as a paid option that lets users clone their own voice, Browder told Vice.
