00:00This incredible new AI has shocked the online world because it lets anyone make
00:07their own songs, even people who've never played an instrument or sung a note in
00:11their lives. So not only does it craft the lyrics for you, but it sings them too.
00:15Suno AI is a tool that transforms your musical ideas into complete songs,
00:20making music production accessible to people of all skills. Developed by
00:24Anthropic, a company known for its AI chatbot Claude, Suno AI has roots in
00:29Cambridge, Massachusetts with a team from big names like Meta and TikTok.
00:33The traditional music industry is really feeling the pressure as AI tools like this
00:38begin to take over. Thanks to this crazy technology, regular folks can now produce
00:42studio quality music right from their own homes, shaking up what we've always expected
00:48from professional recording studios. Suno AI, which means listen in Hindi,
00:53became popular quickly after its launch in December 2023. It even teamed up with
00:58Microsoft, making it available in Microsoft Copilot.
01:01There's a little buzz going round
01:06Since starting in 2022, it has raised a whopping $224 million with the help of many investors.
01:13This collaboration with Microsoft is a big deal. It lets people, regardless of their
01:17musical knowledge, make unique and fun songs just by giving a simple command. The CEO of Suno,
01:23Shulman mentioned that while making songs in the style of famous artists is exciting,
01:27it might not keep consumers entertained forever. He believes that the real charm of Suno lies in its
01:33ability to simplify music creation for everyone, particularly those without musical training.
01:38The AI has free and paid plans. The free plan gives you 50 credits daily, letting you create up to 10
01:44songs. The pro plan at $8 a month offers 2,500 credits, and the premiere plan at $24 a month offers
01:5210,000 credits. With these plans, users keep the rights to their music, unlike the free plan where
01:58Suno retains them. The app also offers customization, like adding vocals to songs, making it a user-friendly
02:04option for all music enthusiasts. The latest update of the app boasts better audio quality and more
02:16music styles. It even promises to better follow your song instructions.
02:27Is it legal? Yes, and you own your music. Shulman emphasizes that Suno is all about legal and ethical
02:32music creation. It doesn't allow you to use other songs or lyrics from existing bands. For instance,
02:38if you ask it to make a song about a famous band, it will simply refuse, protecting copyright laws.
02:43Suno makes sure that all music created is the user's property, but it also warns that not every
02:49piece will be completely unique, especially if users give similar prompts. They recommend consulting a
02:54lawyer if you want to understand your rights better. This tool is not just a fun gadget, it's a peek
03:00into the future of music, where AI helps bring your creative visions to life.
03:09Alright now, Apple's upcoming iOS 18 is set to be a major update, introducing a suite of
03:15AI-driven features at a system level. This marks a significant shift as Apple plans to implement
03:21generative AI that could enhance functionalities like Siri and Spotlight Search across both new and
03:26old iPhone models. According to Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, these initial AI enhancements will be
03:32processed directly on the iPhones themselves, not relying on external cloud servers. This approach
03:38allows even older iPhones to benefit from the latest AI capabilities, without needing new hardware.
03:43However, with the upcoming iPhone 16 series featuring a more advanced neural engine, future AI features
03:50might leverage this more powerful chip. Apple plans to unveil iOS 18 along with other software updates at
03:57its WWDC 2024 event on June 10th. This timeline gives developers a good stretch to test and refine
04:03the AI functionalities before the iPhone 16 launch in September. There's also talk that Apple might
04:08later integrate cloud-based AI, as they are looking into acquiring AI server technology, potentially altering
04:14their strategy in the years to come. Apple will showcase iOS 18 and other software enhancements at
04:19WWDC, but it seems their AI-powered chatbot won't make the cut this time around, even as they prepare to
04:26compete with products like ChatGPT and Google Gemini in the future. Now, something a bit different. Botswana
04:32Diamonds, BOD, a UK-based company, is using AI to uncover new diamond deposits. This innovative approach uses a
04:40technology called Explore, developed in partnership with UK-based International Geoscience Services
04:45Ltd, which allows for human-like analysis of massive data sets that are too large for quick human
04:50analysis. John Teeling, chairman of BOD, highlighted the scale of their mineral database in Botswana,
04:56describing it as vast and simply too big for timely analysis by humans. The database is the second
05:03largest in Botswana, containing 380 gigabytes of data and 260,000 files. It includes extensive
05:09geophysical and soil data, covering 95,000 square kilometers of terrain and featuring results from
05:15hundreds of geophysical surveys and soil samples, as well as tens of thousands of drill hole logs.
05:20Explore utilizes semantic technology combined with machine learning to understand, interpret,
05:25and process this data in a way that mimics human reasoning. BOD states that the system works much
05:30like a geologist, but operates faster and more efficiently. By processing large data sets, AI identifies
05:36gaps in the data and learns to correct them, leading to new insights and previously unseen drillable
05:41targets. Moreover, the technology is also capable of identifying other types of mineral deposits,
05:47expanding its utility beyond just diamonds. This breakthrough in using AI means we might soon
05:53be finding more diamonds and minerals faster than ever before, but do you think this will make them
05:58cheaper? Let me know what you think in the comments. All right, now remember when I talked
06:02about Humane's AI pin device before it even came out? Well, it's officially hit the market across the
06:07nation, but it seems the feedback so far is pretty mixed. Early adopters are finding that while the
06:12device has some promising features, it might not be quite ready for prime time. Humane has been touting
06:17their wearable AI pin as a potential smartphone replacement, capable of doing everything from making
06:23calls to projecting information right onto your hand. However, according to the first round of reviews,
06:29the pin's performance doesn't quite justify its $699 price tag yet. Both The Verge and Wired gave it
06:35a mediocre 4 out of 10. The co-founders of Humane, Bethany Bongiorno and Imran Chowdhury are still
06:41optimistic. They've stated that this release is just the beginning and they plan to roll out software
06:46updates, new features and more partnerships to improve the pin's capabilities. Reviewers had some
06:52positives to note. The pin does look sleek and feels premium, kind of like a high-end watch or fancy
06:57jewelry. It's also got some neat tricks like translating languages and taking photos and videos,
07:03although the photo quality isn't great, but the negatives currently outweigh the positives.
07:08Issues like the device's tendency to overheat, moderate what you say, and fail at basic tasks
07:13have left many reviewers unimpressed. For example, The Verge's David Pierce pointed out that the pin
07:19struggles with many basic functions and only occasionally performs well. Wired's Julian Chokotu mentioned that
07:25while the translation function works fairly well, the device won't let you see past texts for
07:30security reasons and it even censors your messages to avoid offensive language. Chris Velasco from
07:36The Washington Post found that interacting with the pin felt natural and enjoyed the feature that
07:42projects information onto your hand, but he also highlighted problems with texting and unhelpful AI responses.
07:49All in all, while the AI pin from Humane is a bold step towards futuristic tech wearables,
07:54it seems it still has a long way to go before it can think about replacing our smartphones. It's
07:59definitely a product with potential, just perhaps not quite ready for the spotlight.
08:03Okay, now the University of Missouri has started a new center focused on using artificial intelligence
08:09to improve farming. This center, formed in partnership with MU Extension and the U.S. Department of
08:14Agriculture, aims to make farming more efficient and eco-friendly. Kent Shannon, the co-director,
08:19is working on AI that can quickly spot problems like crop diseases or nutrient shortages, helping
08:25farmers use resources like fertilizer more effectively. This could be especially important
08:30in Missouri, where farming makes up a big part of the economy. The center also features the MU Digital
08:35Farm, a place where new farming technologies are tested. Drones, for example, have become crucial for
08:40tasks that are tough for traditional farming methods. Despite the potential benefits, not all farmers are
08:46quick to adopt these new technologies. Challenges like poor internet in rural areas also make it harder
08:52to use advanced tech. However, the center hopes its work will not only help Missouri farmers, but also set
08:58new standards for farming across the country. Alright, don't forget to hit that subscribe button for more
09:03updates. Thanks for tuning in, and we'll catch you in the next one.
