Hi!

In today's AI news roundup, OpenAI introduces DALL-E 3, a more advanced and integrated version of its generative art AI, while a Gartner and Rackspace survey reveals the growing incorporation of AI in enterprise security tool stacks. A Gartner report predicts that 60% of B2B sales work will be executed by generative AI technologies within the next five years, signaling a sea change in the sales industry. Meanwhile, FIFA and IFAB approve the first AI tracking technology for football boots, and the former VP of AI at Meta launches Sizzle, an AI-powered learning app. In venture capital updates, healthcare AI startup Corti secures $60 million in funding to expand its clinician assistant capabilities.

OpenAI has unveiled DALL-E 3, the latest iteration of its generative AI art platform capable of transforming text prompts into images. The new version boasts improved contextual understanding and integrates with ChatGPT, allowing users to generate more accurate and creative visual prompts easily. Users who aren't adept at crafting their own prompts can rely on ChatGPT to generate detailed ones for them. DALL-E 3 aims to address safety concerns by implementing robust measures to prevent the generation of inappropriate or hateful images. It will initially be available to ChatGPT Plus and ChatGPT Enterprise users, with no confirmed date for a free public release. The platform has also taken steps to respect artists' rights, allowing them to opt their art out of future versions and declining to generate images in the style of living artists.

According to reports from Gartner and Rackspace, there is a growing trend among enterprises to integrate AI technologies into their security tool stack, particularly for application, cloud-native, and data security. The surveys, which included responses from numerous IT decision-makers, found that AI has heightened the need for enhanced cybersecurity measures, leading to stricter data storage and access protocols. This increased focus on cybersecurity has resulted in a surge in investment; over 60% of respondents reported an increase in their cyber budgets, with a third of those increasing their budgets by over 14%. As AI continues to evolve rapidly, organizations are actively exploring and implementing AI-based security tools. However, there's ongoing debate on who should be responsible for generative AI security, with a majority believing that it falls under the IT department.

According to a Gartner report, generative AI is poised to significantly disrupt the B2B sales landscape within the next five years. By 2028, 60% of B2B seller work is expected to be executed through generative AI technologies, a substantial increase from less than 5% in 2023. This shift will be driven by a blend of new artificial intelligence capabilities, dynamic process automation, and revamped deal-planning activities. Generative AI will enable sales teams to capture more complex data signals, thereby enriching customer insights and enhancing decision-making. The integration of generative AI with sales force automation (SFA) platforms will allow for real-time strategy adjustments and more efficient allocation of go-to-market resources. Gartner predicts that 30% of outbound messages from large organizations will be AI-generated within the next two years, and that generative AI will also significantly impact areas like guided selling, forecast management, and analytics.

FIFA and IFAB have approved a new AI tracking technology for football boots developed by Playermaker, marking it as the first lower-limb tracking device to be used in official matches. The technology straps to players' boots and captures a variety of performance metrics, including technical balance, kicking velocities, speed, distance, and acceleration. Designed to enhance data monitoring in both training sessions and matches, the device offers a cost-efficient and simplified experience for players and coaches. Playermaker has already established partnerships with over 200 professional football clubs, including Premier League teams like Manchester City and Fulham, as well as Champions League participant Benfica.

🛠️ AI tools updates

Founded by Jerome Pesenti, the former VP of AI at Meta, Sizzle is a free AI-powered learning app that aims to assist students across various education levels in subjects like math, physics, chemistry, and biology. Unlike similar platforms, Sizzle functions as a tutor chatbot, guiding students through problem-solving steps and allowing them to ask questions for better understanding. The app, which has a 90% accuracy rate, recently launched new features such as grading capability, step regeneration, multiple answers, and photo uploads. Developed by a team from Meta, Google, X, and Twitch, Sizzle has amassed over 20,000 downloads and an average rating of 4.6 stars since its August launch. The app secured $7.5 million in seed funding and plans to introduce more features while maintaining its core functionalities as free to use.

💵 Venture Capital updates

Copenhagen-based startup Corti has secured $60 million in a Series B funding round led by Prosus Ventures and Atomico to expand its AI assistant aimed at aiding healthcare clinicians in real-time patient assessments. The AI "co-pilot" covers tasks like triaging, documentation, analysis, and sometimes offers second opinions, aiming to improve healthcare workers' accuracy by up to 40% in outcome predictions and reducing administrative time by 90%. Since its last fundraising, Corti has grown its usage from 15 million to 100 million consultations annually, serving emergency services and hospitals in Europe and the U.S. Unlike its competitor Nabla, Corti has developed its own AI models without incorporating medical experts in-house, arguing that this avoids potential bias. Although the integration of AI in healthcare has faced skepticism and debate over job replacement and data accuracy, Corti has gained traction, particularly in light of the administrative burdens facing the healthcare industry.
