AI in the news - weekly update
AI Voices Are Improving & Becoming More Diverse: ElevenLabs has released additional accents, so AI voices are becoming more versatile. The moment, I’ve been waiting for… they just released Irish accents 🇮🇪 (I have one of those) - so I gave it a go. The below is trained on a 1 min clip of me speaking, and is fully AI-generated. They still make me sound a little American, but it is very good.
Sam Altman Launches Worldcoin To Preserve “Digital Identity”: The creator of OpenAI released a new cryptocurrency. The gist of it is, to get a wallet on your phone for this currency you need to prove you are a human. To do this, you go to one of their ‘Orb’ locations, and let the Orb scan your eyeball.

People analytics using ChatGPT (Erik van Vulpen)
🤯 Code interpreter for ChatGPT is undoubtedly an extremely powerful tool. (You need ChatGPT Plus to use this)
This video walkthrough (video here) is well worth a watch and shows an example of how you can use the help of ChatGPT as a personal Data Analyst to analyze People datasets. 🔎
In this example Erik van Vulpen:
1️⃣ Data: Feeds ChatGPT some data on employee attrition.
2️⃣ Prompt: Asks ChatGPT to ‘Do a data-driven analysis of this employee turnover dataset and find key differences between people who left the organization vs. those who did not. Start off with some basic visual analytics, employ machine learning to predict employee turnover, and give suggestions based on this.”
3️⃣ ChatGPT shows its workings: It’s amazing how much code interpreter can do.
Identified factors most likely to contribute to employee turnover
Action-based suggestions, around ensuring competitive and fair comp / implementing policies on work-life balance.
4️⃣ Follow-up prompt: Then Erik asks ChatGPT to put numeric values on how much more likely someone is to leave the organization based on all of the variables assessed. (e.g. if someone works overtime they are X% more likely to leave, or for each year older someone is they are 3% less likely to leave)
How Marc Andreessen uses ChatGPT to prepare his son for the A.I. future (Fortune)
Marc Andreessen, a prominent venture capitalist, is preparing his 8-year-old son for the AI future by teaching him to use ChatGPT. 👨👦
Andreessen showed his son how to ask ChatGPT to explain topics at different ages, but his son was nonchalant, saying "Well it's a computer. Of course you ask it questions."
“Kids are gonna just have a totally different point of view on this,” Andreessen said. “It’s gonna be completely normal.”
Andreessen believes kids who grow up with AI like his son will have it as an "ally" and partner in life.
🤖 The AI will have 12 years of experience with his son by the time he's 20 and will have "grown up" with him
🧠 The AI will know his strengths, weaknesses, what he's good at, and how to teach and correct him
🤝 The AI will be an "ally" whose goal is to make him as happy, satisfied and successful as possible
Andreessen believes the next generation will see AI as a normal, helpful part of life rather than something to fear.

Top résumé tips to stand out in automated screenings and with recruiters (Washington Post)
Job seekers are getting crafty trying to beat the bots and get noticed! 😼 A rising number of applications spurred by new easy-to-apply online systems is making it hard for some employers to thoroughly review every candidate and send rejection letters:
“I’m seeing a fourfold increase in applications for one job…..people are not getting calls on résumés that they’re dumping into the system.”
Jason Walker, co-founder of Thrive HR Consulting
Here are some tips recruiters interviewed by the Washington Post offered to candidates:
Use AI to optimize resumes, but double-check its work. 🤖 We don’t want a repeat of the below….
Candidate application to Cleo AI - read the first sentence….. Don’t try hiding keywords in white font to get past filters, systems may ding you for this. 😱
Focus on human interaction - get networking for referrals. 🤝
Use AI to help you tailor your application to match the job posting. 🕵️♀️
