AI giveth, and AI taketh away. Snapchat influencer Caryn Marjorie launched a voice chatbot of herself as an “AI girlfriend” that fans could chat with for $1/minute. While the chatbot raked in $72,000 in its first week, subscribers started steering their conversations out of the friend-zone. As a surprise to absolutely no one, things got weird, and CarynAI was shut down for “going rogue” and saying sexually explicit things. Caryn says her team is “trying to work out the kinks,” and predicts it will eventually make her $5 million PER MONTH. Are these ‘kinks’ a bug or a feature? Your move, OnlyFans.
We watched Google IO so you didn’t have to. Google is Salt Bae-ing AI across its products like they're tomahawk ribeyes. Search is getting a facelift with a new “AI snapshot” section at the top of the page. They’re letting everyone take a spin on Bard (the company’s ChatGPT dupe), which can now browse the internet. You can conjure AI from within Gmail or Docs with Duet AI. Even photos are getting a Magic Editor so you can deepfake your mom. It’s giving this.
Don’t worry darling. After a few months of testing, ChatGPT plugins are being rolled out to premium subscribers over the next few days. Think of it like OpenAI’s app store, where anyone will eventually be able to build a plugin for ChatGPT, allowing it to do things like access the internet, order groceries on Instacart and get the score of the Lakers game. Wen rizzGPT plugin?
