Plus Startups Go Big On AI Generated CodeLike this? Get AIDAILY, delivered to your inbox, every weekday. Subscribe to our newsletter at https://aidaily.usGoogle Introduces 'AI Mode' in Search for Conversational ResultsGoogle is testing 'AI Mode' in its search engine, replacing traditional link lists with AI-generated conversational answers. This feature utilizes the Gemini 2.0 AI model to provide comprehensive responses, integrating relevant web links. Initially available to Google One AI Premium subscribers, 'AI Mode' aims to enhance user experience by delivering more intuitive and informative search results. AI-Generated Code Dominates Y Combinator's Latest Startup CohortIn Y Combinator's recent cohort, approximately 25% of startups have codebases predominantly generated by artificial intelligence. This trend underscores AI's growing role in software development, enabling rapid prototyping and reduced development costs. However, reliance on AI-generated code raises concerns about code quality, security vulnerabilities, and the need for human oversight to ensure robust and maintainable software solutions.Researchers Advocate for New Approaches to Achieve Human-Level AIA recent survey of AI researchers reveals skepticism about current AI technologies reaching artificial general intelligence (AGI). Over 75% believe scaling existing systems won't achieve AGI, and 84% doubt neural networks alone can match human intelligence. The findings suggest a need to explore alternative AI methodologies beyond current dominant approaches.Amazon Plans 'Constellation' of AI-Powered DevicesAmazon is set to expand its AI offerings with a "constellation" of devices, according to Panos Panay, head of Amazon's devices and services. Following the launch of Alexa+, the company aims to integrate AI across its product lineup, potentially enhancing devices like Ring security cameras, Eero Wi-Fi routers, and Echo smart speakers. Specific details remain undisclosed. The Hottest AI Models Right Now and How to Use ThemAI is evolving fast, with top models pushing the limits of what's possible. OpenAI's GPT-4.5 leads in language generation, Google's Gemini 2.0 enhances reasoning, and Anthropic's Claude 3.7 excels in complex problem-solving. Meanwhile, xAI's Grok 3 and diffusion-based models are gaining traction for specialized applications. Digg's AI-Powered Reboot: A New Era for Social Content CurationDigg, once a leading content aggregator, is set for a revival under co-founder Kevin Rose and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. The platform will incorporate artificial intelligence to enhance content curation, aiming to foster genuine community engagement and counter misinformation. The relaunch positions Digg to re-enter the competitive social media landscape with a focus on user-driven, AI-augmented experiences.

Panos Panay is in charge of devices and services at Amazon — that's everything from Alexa and Kindle to Ring, Eero, and even the Project Kuiper satellite internet service that's meant to compete with Starlink. He's led the team through giving Alexa a big AI infusion which is what drew him to Amazon after nearly 20 years with Microsoft. Like so many folks in tech, he sees AI as a platform shift that will change the way we use computers. Fair warning: We talk about Alexa a lot in this one, so you might want to go mute your Alexa device mics now.

Alexa+ llega con IA generativa, costará 19,99 dólares al mes o gratis con Prime, prometiendo conversaciones naturales y acciones variadas Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCoAlexa, la asistente de Amazon que nació hace más de una década, va a transformarse con la llegada de Alexa+. Este cambio promete experiencias de conversación más naturales y potentes. Ahora será posible pedir boletos para conciertos con la voz, organizar citas en el calendario y recibir sugerencias de comida sin complicaciones. La tecnología de IA generativa permitirá que Alexa+ entienda mejor las peticiones y ofrezca respuestas rápidas. También va a ayudar a las familias que quieran simplificar sus tareas diarias. Muchos se preguntan si esta nueva versión logrará cambiar la manera en que hablamos con la tecnología. ¿Estás listo para descubrirlo? Hay entusiasmo por sus capacidades, pero también curiosidad por sus límites.Algunos temen perder privacidad, aunque Alexa+ promete manejar datos cuidadosamenteEn sus inicios, Alexa sorprendió por permitirnos pedir música o conocer el clima con una simple voz. Ahora, con Alexa+, Amazon va a incluir funciones de IA generativa. Este cambio promete una interacción más humana, una forma de entender peticiones complejas y organizar la vida de quienes buscan simplicidad. Alexa+ costará 19,99 dólares al mes o será gratis si ya eres miembro de Prime. Va a llegar el mes próximo y se enfocará primero en cuatro modelos Echo Show con pantalla: 8, 10, 15 y 21. Quienes tengan dispositivos antiguos pueden seguir usando Alexa clásica. La empresa está invirtiendo enormes recursos para competir con otras iniciativas de IA. ¿Será esta la nueva forma de comunicarnos con la tecnología?La llegada de esta nueva versión de Alexa despierta algunas dudas en la gente. Muchos se preguntan cómo Alexa+ va a manejar tanta información personal, ya que la IA generativa requiere datos para funcionar bien. Además, hay personas que temen que la interacción constante pueda reducir el contacto humano o afectar la manera de enseñar a los niños la búsqueda de respuestas por su cuenta. Otros usuarios piensan que la cuota mensual de 19,99 dólares puede ser elevada, especialmente si ya cuentan con varios servicios de streaming. También surgen inquietudes sobre la compatibilidad con modelos antiguos de Echo, porque algunos no tendrán acceso total a Alexa+. Es un momento donde el público se cuestiona qué es realmente útil y qué es puro entusiasmo comercial.Frente a esas inquietudes, Amazon va a reforzar el mensaje de que Alexa+ cuidará la privacidad. Según los representantes de la compañía, esta asistente avanzada va a procesar información de forma más segmentada y segura, apoyándose en sus grandes servidores. Además, Panos Panay, líder del área de Dispositivos, mostró con entusiasmo cómo Alexa+ puede coordinar la entrega de comida, la reserva de un Uber para un amigo o la gestión de recuerdos familiares. Esos ejemplos demuestran que no se trata únicamente de dar respuestas, sino de ejecutar acciones complejas que ahorran tiempo. Muchos ven con optimismo que se incluya gratis para los usuarios de Prime, que por lo general pagan 14,99 dólares al mes o 139 dólares al año, pues abre un abanico más amplio de servicios. Quienes deseen quedarse con la versión básica de Alexa van a poder hacerlo sin complicaciones. De esta manera, Amazon plantea un futuro donde la voz y la inteligencia artificial se fusionan en una sola experiencia cotidiana.Es interesante saber que Alexa+ utilizará modelos de lenguaje propios de Amazon, combinados con la tecnología de Anthropic, otra compañía en la que Amazon invierte grandes sumas de dinero. Esto le da acceso a una red más amplia de recursos, incrementando la velocidad y eficacia de las respuestas. Algunas funciones de Alexa+ van a aprovechar servicios externos, como reservar citas en plataformas de belleza o buscar un restaurante según las preferencias familiares. Se espera que otras opciones, como la integración con Amazon Astro o con dispositivos sin pantalla, aparezcan más adelante. Mientras tanto, los dueños de Echo Dot de primera generación, Echo Tap o versiones antiguas de Echo Show no tendrán la actualización completa de Alexa+, aunque van a poder seguir usando las funciones originales de Alexa sin costo adicional. Esta estrategia busca atraer a usuarios que quieran explorar todo el potencial de la IA conversacional mientras conservan opciones más sencillas en sus dispositivos actuales.Alexa+ aparece como un asistente renovado, con IA generativa y múltiples posibilidades de uso. Es clave observar cómo afectará la rutina diaria, la privacidad y la interacción familiar. ¿Te parece útil o excesivo? Deja tus comentarios y comparte tu opinión. Sigue nuestro pódcast en Flash Diario. Vamos a descubrir si esta herramienta impulsa una nueva era de interacción digital.

Our guest on this episode of the GeekWire Podcast is Panos Panay, Amazon's senior vice president of Devices & Services, a longtime leader in the world of consumer technology. It has been one year since he started at Amazon, after his surprise departure from Microsoft, where he oversaw products including Surface and Windows. Panay's division at Amazon includes the Alexa voice assistant and Echo devices, but that's just the start. His purview also spans Kindle e-readers, Fire tablets, Zoox self-driving taxis, Eero wireless networking devices, Ring and Blink cameras, Fire TV devices, and Kuiper, the company's nascent satellite internet business. The focus this week is Kindle, with the Oct. 30 release of the Kindle Colorsoft, the first color device in Amazon's line of market-leading e-readers, selling for a premium price of $279.99. It's part of a new era for the Kindle business, driven in part by book-loving social media influencers and consumers looking for simplicity and focus in a world of non-stop smartphone alerts. We also talked about AI, including the generative AI summaries coming with the next-generation Kindle Scribe tablet, due out in December. Panay wasn't ready to dish on what's next for Alexa in conversational AI, but he made it clear that he's bullish on AI in general, and doesn't believe it's a passing fad.

Nilay and David talk about the week in gadget news, after scoring their predictions on last week's Tesla event. (Spoiler alert: nobody did very well.) They talk about the new iPad Mini, the new Sonos Ace Ultra soundbar, and the new Analogue N64 emulator. Then Amazon's Panos Panay joins the show to discuss this week's big Kindle news, and where he thinks the future of e-readers is headed.

CrowdStrike: Terrible name, terrible outage CrowdStrike, a company no one has ever heard of, ships an update that borks Windows PCs, servers, and clouds services at the heart of the worldʼs infrastructure. Naturally, everyone blamed Microsoft at first Microsoft says outage impacted under 1 percent of PCs. It was just the worst PCs imaginable Microsoft blames EU regulation for its inability to be like Apple That is not a good look. It's also deceptive. Microsoft issues repair tool (later updates). CrowdStrike explains what it did wrong. TLDR: everything. Windows Windows 11 version 23H2 is fully available! Wait, what? Surface Laptop 7 review: big, heavy, no presence sensing or fingerprint reader. Right, I love it. Also, the ThinkPad T14s arrived. Related: Intel cops to mistake in Core Gen 13/14 processors, will issue fix. Why this is unprecedented. And also precedented. Also, why precedented is a word. Microsoft is FINALLY bringing ads to the Microsoft Store search box. Microsoft starts testing new Start menu layouts. Surely one of them has live tites. Canary build today: Duplicate File Explorer tab, not much else. AI/Antitrust Meta is making a surprising—and surprisingly strong—case for AI as open-source. Proton adds an AI writing assistant to its Drive-based Docs. Amazon lost an alleged $25 billion on Alexa devices over four years, so itʼs all in on AI-based devices now! (Panos Panay is the perfect fit for this business if the goal is to be unprofitable). Google effectively kills Privacy Sandbox in a victory for regulation. Microsoft probably cleared the final hurdle to avoid EU antitrust action on cloud licensing. Hey, it worked with security companies and the Windows kernel! It's That Time of the Quarter Again Alphabet / Google: Double-digit revune gains YOY, but how much of this is AI? Subscription services (Netflix, Spotify, not so much Game Pass) are KILLING it,but theyʼre also in full-on enshirtification mode - how do we fix this? Can we fix this. Xbox FTC complains about Xbox Game changes. They're not wrong. But they're not right either. Call of Duty Modern Warfare III lands on Game Pass today - what the what Also, Microsoft muffed the landing badly - but it appears to be working now Halo TV series canceled. It's the worst thing that's happened with Xbox this entire year Tips and Picks Tip of the week: The best thing about Copilot in Windows 11 now With Copilot switching from a pane to an app, thereʼs an unintended benefit that comes into play when you use an AI PC with a Copilot key on it. Youʼre never going to believe what happens next. App pick of the week: Microsoft Designer for image generation Microsoft Designer exited preview last week and thereʼs at least one secret benefit to using it: Unlike Copilot, you can create wide and portrait images (and not just square) without paying. This is why I pay for Copilot Pro. (You do need to sign in with an MSA, however.)

App pick of the week: Microsoft Designer for image generation Microsoft Designer exited preview last week and thereʼs at least one secret benefit to using it: Unlike Copilot, you can create wide and portrait images (and not just square) without paying. This is why I pay for Copilot Pro. (You do need to sign in with an MSA, however.)

It was a big week for Microsoft, with the unveiling of the company's latest Windows and AI features and new Surface devices at a special event in New York City on Thursday. This was preceded, by only a few days, by the surprise resignation of Panos Panay, the chief product officer in charge of the company's Windows and Devices division. Shortly after that announcement, Bloomberg News reported that Panay was set to join Amazon as the new leader of its Devices & Services division, a surprise twist that has yet to be confirmed as of publication time. To help sort it all out, we're excited to be joined on this episode of the GeekWire Podcast by someone who has covered the company for many years, journalist Mary Jo Foley, editor in chief at DirectionsOnMicrosoft.com.

It's a BIG news episode this week, as Leo Laporte and Paul Thurrott discuss the sudden departure of Panos Panay from Microsoft to Amazon. Did he jump or get pushed out of the company? Leo and Paul also dive into a massive leaked memo about Microsoft's Xbox roadmap and plans over the next 10 years. Other topics include Microsoft's upcoming event focused on AI integration across products like Windows, Office 365, and Surface, as well as online account consolidation and Google's Takeout service. We're down a Panay After his curiously off-kilter performance at Build 2023 this past May, Microsoft reveals that it is parting ways with Panos Panay. Are these things related? He's landing at Amazon devices, which makes sense given David Limp is retiring Multiple Microsoft executives and employees have reached out privately about this Comparisons to Terry Myerson's exit Blockbuster Xbox leak Major Xbox leak reveals Xbox Series X|S mid-season upgrades, next-gen console, new controller, and more This is one of the top three Microsoft leaks that's happened in Paul's nearly 30 years of covering this company An analysis of just one of the documents in this leak reveals an incredible amount of strategy information for the next 10 years And one about the reaction to the PS5 reveal Microsoft's upcoming AI event Expectations for this event, the kick-off for Microsoft's full-on client AI push Sub-analysis: This could be Microsoft CTO Kevin Scott's "Ray Ozzie moment."
