| The Rundown: OpenAI has begun a limited rollout of its hotly anticipated 'Advanced Voice Mode' for paying ChatGPT Plus users, offering natural, real-time conversations and the ability for the AI to detect and respond to emotions. | The details: | The feature will initially be available to a small group of ChatGPT Plus users, with plans to give all Plus users access by fall 2024. Advanced Voice Mode uses GPT-4o and can sense emotions in users' voices, including sadness, excitement, or singing. Video and screen-sharing capabilities, previously showcased in OpenAI's early demo, will launch at a 'later' date. OpenAI has sent email instructions to the initial 'Alpha' group selected for early access.
| Why it matters: AI is slowly shifting from a tool we text/prompt with, to an intelligence that we collaborate, learn, and grow with. Advanced Voice Mode's ability to understand and respond to emotions in real-time convos could also have huge use cases in everything from customer service to mental health support. |

| | FRIEND | | | Image source: Friend |
| The Rundown: Avi Schiffmann, a Harvard dropout and Webby Award winner, just unveiled Friend, a $99 AI-powered wearable device designed to combat loneliness by providing constant companionship. | The details: | Friend is a pendant-like device that hangs around the neck and uses AI to engage in conversations and offer emotional support. The device is always listening and can proactively send messages based on the wearer's context. Friend has raised $2.5 million in funding at a $50 million valuation from notable investors. Preorders are now open for the basic white version, with shipping expected in January 2025.
| Why it matters: Friend takes a different approach compared to other AI wearables by focusing on companionship rather than productivity. But with a market flooded with overpromises, privacy implications, and concerns about real human connection — the pendant is fighting an uphill battle when it comes to trust. |

| The Rundown: Perplexity just introduced a "Publishers' Program" to share ad revenue with media partners, following recent plagiarism accusations and aiming to support quality journalism in the age of AI-powered search. | The details: | The program includes cash advances on future revenue as Perplexity builds its advertising model, set to launch in September. Initial partners include Time, Der Spiegel, Fortune, WordPress.com, and more, who will receive a "double-digit percentage" of ad revenue. Partners also get free access to Perplexity's Enterprise Pro tier, developer tools, and insights through Scalepost AI.
| Why it matters: Despite constant pushback on AI firms and their training data, media companies are finding few available paths forward other than accepting partnership deals. Perplexity's initiative is a good step toward fairness, but it likely won't be the end of the growing pains with publishers. |
