SAFETY
Our Report: OpenAI has formed a ‘Child Safety’ team to address concerns over the misuse of AI and to prevent the abuse of AI tools by underage users.
🔑 Key Points:
The Child Safety team is working with external partners and internal policy and investigation teams to create processes relating to the use of AI among underage users.
They’re looking for a child safety enforcement specialist to join the team and apply the new child safety policies while overseeing review processes related to sensitive, child-related AI content.
They’re aligning their efforts with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule, which controls children’s online activities and data collection by companies.
🤨 Why you should care: This development comes after OpenAI previously acknowledged that ChatGPT “may produce output that isn’t appropriate for all audiences or all ages” and their partnership with Common Sense Media (to create family-friendly AI guidelines), reflecting their commitment to the safe and responsible use of AI among children.

HISTORIC AI
Musk has committed to funding "whatever amount is useful” to a project (named The Vesuvius Challenge) that uses AI to decode ancient Roman scrolls.
These scrolls were unreadable—after they were damaged by a volcanic eruption—until the project team (led by ex-GitHub CEO, Nat Friedman) utilized AI to read paragraphs.
Musk could back the project's next phases, where AI will be used to read an entire scroll (expected to cost $2M) and then the full set of 800 scrolls (expected to cost $10M).
This project marks a milestone for historical research and AI and promises to uncover new insights into ancient Roman civilization that have been concealed for centuries.
Do you think Musk is backing this project to support historical research? |
✅ Cold DMs
copy & paste ⬇️
“I need a cold DM idea that will draw in my [ideal customer persona] with a relatable and authentic message, and then persuade them to take [desired action] with a strong call-to-action and compelling visuals.”
GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS
Microsoft has partnered with Indian AI startup ‘Sarvam AI’ to develop its voice-based, Indian language ChatGPT equivalent (OpenHathi-Hi-0.1).
Sarvam AI will use Microsoft’s cloud services to train, host, and scale its AI voice application, which will be available in Hindi first but will cover other Indian languages over the coming months.
This partnership follows a Microsoft initiative to provide AI upskilling possibilities to 2M Indian citizens by 2025, reinforcing its commitment to driving AI innovation in India.
AI RESEARCH
Apple researchers (with the University of California) have released an AI-powered design tool (MGIE) that lets users describe what they want to change in a photo.
MGIE can crop, resize, flip, and add filters to images and complete complex Photoshop-like edits (like making objects brighter or a different shape) through text prompts.
MGIE is an open-source project, meaning anyone can try it and contribute to the project, which can be downloaded via GitHub.
NEW FEATURES
Copilot has launched a new look—enhancing the user experience—and a new design-focused feature, ahead of its Super Bowl ad campaign (the first one in four years).
The mobile and web app interface now has a ‘cleaner look’ and a more streamlined interface, which includes a carousel of suggested prompts to highlight what the chatbot can do.
The designer tool—which currently transforms prompts into images—now allows users to edit images (like colorizing objects and blurring image backgrounds) without leaving the chatbot.
Although Copilot was criticized for its inadequate guardrails (which allowed the generation of unauthorized content), they’ve addressed these issues by preventing the creation of celebrity images.
Over the past year, AI Tool Report has worked with Hubspot, Brave Browser, SurfShark, Guidde, Graft & many more—presenting their AI products/services to over 490,000 AI enthusiasts, boasting:
A consistent 52% open rate
Best-in-class ad performance
A growing ecosystem of AI products/services
we believe the world needs more ai infrastructure--fab capacity, energy, datacenters, etc--than people are currently planning to build.
building massive-scale ai infrastructure, and a resilient supply chain, is crucial to economic competitiveness.
openai will try to help!

I've been looking forward to this
You can now edit images generated with Dall-E 3.
It works directly in Copilot thanks to Designer (and for free) 🧵
