Is Microsoft’s AI Assistant a Privacy Risk?

Microsoft says to make AI assistants remember everything for you a reality within a year.

Mustafa Suleyman, Microsoft’s head of AI, believes these smart companions will change how we live and work.

But with great power comes big concerns:

• Privacy

• Security

• Bias

While some are excited about the possibilities, others are sounding alarms.

Microsoft is moving full steam ahead, investing billions in OpenAI.

They’re launching new features like:

• Voice commands

• “Think Deeper” mode for handling tough questions

Yet, not everything is smooth sailing.

Privacy backlash caused Microsoft to pause a tool that tracked user activities.

Despite that, Suleyman insists AI is here to stay.

2. Use AI as a Filter For Your Ideas.

This is a thread from Vilson, a well-known graphic designer. 

In his recent tweet, he said:

 “Use AI as a filter for your ideas. Throw in your concepts and ask it to tear them apart.

Take the feedback, revisit your idea, and see what you might have missed. AI often highlights insights you never considered.

Don’t just accept everything it says, but let it challenge your perspective.”

1. Anthropic hires OpenAI co-founder Durk Kingma.

Durk Kingma, one of the lesser-known co-founders of OpenAI, today announced that he’ll be joining Anthropic.

In a series of posts on X, Kingma revealed that he’d be mainly working remotely from the Netherlands (where he’s based) but didn’t say which Anthropic org he’ll be joining — or leading.

2. Numa raises $32M to bring AI and automation to car dealerships

A less-prominent (but by no means failed) pivot is Numa’s. Its co-founders killed the startup’s original conversational AI product to sell customer service automation tools instead. Not just any tools, though — these tools are targeted at auto dealerships.

3. OpenAI’s DevDay brings Realtime API and other treats for AI app developers

In a briefing with reporters ahead of the event, OpenAI chief product officer Kevin Weil said the recent departures of chief technology officer Mira Murati and chief research officer Bob McGrew would not affect the company’s progress.
