Welcome, humans.

Marques Brownlee skewered the Humane Ai Pin so badly that people are interviewing him about the review and writing long posts about the future of AI in reaction to it.

Will this be the end of overhyped AI product demos? 🤞

Here’s what you need to know about AI today:

• Poe is making it easier to use multiple chatbots at once.

• We share two ways to expand your usage of Gemini and ChatGPT.

• Mistral AI is raising at a $5B valuation, up from $2B 4 months ago.

• Adobe released an AI PDF assistant for Acrobat.

Poe lets you use multiple chatbots in the same convo.

Did you know GPT-4 was released over a year ago now, in March 2023?

That’s 15 years in dog years AI journalist years—just ask my barber how many gray hairs I’ve gotten!

Ever since, researchers have been pumping out AI models trying to match or beat it. It turns out that some of these models are better at certain tasks than others.

Poe, the all-in-one chatbot playground, is trying something new: letting you switch across multiple models mid-conversation.

Start a convo with ChatGPT, continue it with Claude, then ask DALL-E 3 for an image, and repeat with any of the chatbots we recently ranked.

It’s like putting AI models in a tag team!

Poe’s new feature is useful if you notice that one chatbot is getting worse or if you want to compare how two chatbots will respond to the same prompt.

Even if you don’t mix and match models, Poe is still just $20/month to play with all of the latest models instead of paying for them separately. That includes ChatGPT 4, Claude 3 Opus, and Gemini 1.5 Pro, which are normally $20/month each!

FROM OUR PARTNERS

Have an AI idea but don’t know how to build it?

Hire world-class AI experts from Harvard, Stanford and MIT. 

If you know AI should be a part of your business but don’t know how to implement it, you need AE Studio.

Their team is stacked with elite software creators who can turn any AI concept into reality for your business—think automated reports, NLP, custom chatbots, and beyond.

The secret to their success is treating your project as if it were their own startup. 

Tell AE Studio about your business challenge today. They’ll listen to you, take the time to “get” it, and do the work you need to get done.

You can also augment your chat in Gemini and ChatGPT.

It’s not just Poe. Here are two other ways you can “tag in” another service when using AI:

1) Google Gemini: tag in Google Workspace, Maps, Travel, and YouTube.

This lets you do things like:

• ask Google Drive for files that talk about a certain topic.

• write a blurb with restaurant options for dinner.

• analyze a YouTube video’s content.

The integrations aren’t perfect (unfortunately) but some use cases like email get easier when you can just “say what you want” vs. trying to remember specific words.

2) ChatGPT GPTs: tag in any GPT that you’ve installed

Poe’s new experiment and GPTs have a lot in common: mix and match different AIs in a single chat. The only difference is Poe is across all types of models, while ChatGPT-4 is only across GPTs, customized versions of ChatGPT.

If you need inspiration for GPTs, check out this site for a ranking of the most popular GPTs.

(We encourage you to dig a bit further down since ChatGPT itself can now do many of the things claimed by the top 10 GPTs!).
