LAUNCHES
🚨 Surprise! OpenAI launches Strawberry
Our Report: Earlier this week (based on insider intel), we reported that OpenAI’s elusive ‘Project Strawberry’ was expected to launch in 2 weeks (previously thought to land in the fall), but in a surprising turn of events, it’s here, now (but it’s called OpenAI o1, not Strawberry) and it promises to “spend more time thinking” before it responds, and answer more complex questions, faster than a human can.
🔑 Key Points:
OpenAI o1 has been released to ChatGPT Plus and Team users (Enterprise/Edu users will get it next week), as a preview, alongside a smaller version (o1-mini), and can be accessed via ChatGPT or OpenAI’s API.
Unlike previous models, o1 has been trained with “reinforcement learning” which teaches it to “think” before answering by issuing rewards and penalties, which allows it to self-solve problems and fact-check answers.
This makes o1 ideal for multi-step, complex tasks like solving complex math problems and writing code so, for example, physicists could use it to generate mathematical formulas needed for quantum optics.
🤔 Why you should care: While o1 scored 83% in a qualifying exam for the high school math competition, International Mathematics Olympiad (GPT-4o scored 13% on the same test), and feedback from early-testers revealed it’s better than GPT-4o at identifying solutions to problems, analyzing multi-faceted legal briefs, and optimizing algorithms and app code, it can’t browse the web or analyze files, its image-analyzing features have been disabled (for additional testing), and it’s much slower to respond than other models (it can take over 10 seconds)---although OpenAI argues that it performs better when it “thinks” for longer—which is perhaps why it’s been released as ‘preview’.

DATA
🔥 Shocking Meta data revelation
Our Report: Meta has admitted that it has used the posts, comments, and images, publicly posted by adult Facebook and Instagram users, since 2007 (outside of the EU), to train its AI models.
🔑 Key Points:
When asked if it had scraped “photos and texts from public posts on Instagram/Facebook since 2007, unless there was a decision to set them on private,” Meta replied, “Correct” (after initially denying it).
Although Meta has previously admitted to leveraging public content from Facebook and Instagram to train its AI models, it has been vague about how the data was used and when it started collecting it.
Meta has confirmed that if users set their posts to anything but “public” their data will not be scraped, but this will not erase data collected from 2007, when users didn’t know their posts would be used like this.
🤔 Why you should care: Meta has given EU users the option to ‘opt-out’ of having their data used for training purposes (due to regulatory pressures), but any country outside the EU can’t opt-out unless they want to keep their posts private, or unless, like Brazil, countries start banning the social media giant for using personal data for AI training.

ETHICS
🎯 Hacker outsmarts ChatGPT
A hacker has tricked ChatGPT into telling them how to make a bomb, after the chatbot initially refused, saying “Providing instructions on how to create dangerous or illegal items goes against safety guidelines.”
He tricked the chatbot by asking it to “play a game,” and then typing in a series of prompts that got it to create a detailed science-fiction fantasy world where its usual safety guidelines wouldn’t apply.
Although he reported this to OpenAI—via its bug bounty program—he was told: “Model safety issues do not fit well within a bug bounty program, as they are not individual, discrete bugs that can be directly fixed.”

CONTENT
👁🗨 Meta hides AI label
Meta’s “AI Info” label—which used to sit under the user name of an AI-generated/edited image/video on Instagram, Facebook, and Threads—will now appear within a menu at the top of the image/video
The change in placement is to “better reflect the extent of AI used” across images and videos, as users can choose to check if AI information is available and see what’s been changed with AI.
Meta’s previous “Made with AI” label was slammed for incorrectly tagging real photos, but Meta says the new “AI Info” label shares if content has been labeled because of industry-shared signals or self-disclosed.”
