5. Insider’s AI 100

A few weeks ago TIME put out their list of the 100 most influential people in artificial intelligence, which was received with some consternation. Well, now Business Insider has come out with their own list, which is much more dense with people inside big tech and traditional companies.

4. The Rising Conversation about AI Energy Use

For all you Bitcoin crossover readers, this will give you deja vu. Alongside all the concerns about misinformation and human extinction, a growing chorus is decrying how much energy artificial intelligence uses. Banner headlines declare AI uses as much energy as a small country.

3. AMD Acquires Nod.ai in Battle for AI Chip Supremacy

A big part of the reason that Nvidia has built such a massive lead in the AI chip space is its emphasis on software for running those chips and developer relations that surround it. AMD has announced an acquisition of Nod.ai to run that playbook back in their own ecosystem.

2. Tesla’s New Home for Its Dojo Supercomputer

Speaking of the chip wars, The Information reports that Tesla is building a massive bunker-style structure to house its Dojo supercomputer, which is at the center of its ambitions to expand its footprint in artificial intelligence. Notably, Dojo is built around chips of Tesla’s own design.

1. Adobe Launches New Firefly Image Generation Tools

While everyone has been talking about DALL-E 3 vs. Midjourney, Adobe has been steadily increasing its image generation capacities. The company is hoping not only to bring its offering up to parity with those other tools, but is giving especially corporate buyers the comfort that their models were trained only with proprietary images to which they own the rights.
