AI is moving quickly. 💨
Here are the highlights from the week that was in AI and Chipplandia and our spicy takes on what it actually means. 🌶️
AI Highlights from Around the Web
Race Heats Up with Google
Google announced Gemini 2.0, their most capable AI model yet. With advanced multimodality features and native tool use, they're aiming to create AI agents that work as universal assistants.
🌶️ Google has all the ingredients with chips, data, customers, and more. They are starting to get out of their own way. Gemini 2.0 excites us most for its ability to proivde powerful voice, similar to its NotebookLM product.
OpenAI Launching Live Video AI and More
OpenAI just announced video and screensharing features are rolling out in ChatGPT's mobile app with Advanced Voice. Perfect timing for showing off AI to family during holiday gatherings!
🌶️ The combination of video and audio will unlock new uses for AI from safety monitoring to shopping. We are looking forward to access via the API so we can integrate it!
OpenAI's Market Share Takes a Dive
A recent analysis shows OpenAI's share in the AI model market dropped by 16% in 2024, while Anthropic and Google emerged as the big winners with 12% and 5% gains respectively. The data suggests a shifting landscape in the AI race.
🌶️ The AI market is no longer a one-player game. Competition is heating up, and that's great news for innovation. OpenAI has the “Kleenex” effect, where people think of ChatGPT when they think AI, but the race for second should provide enough competition to push prices down and features up.
AI Employees: The New Tax Discussion
Signüll sparked an interesting conversation about AI and taxes, noting that "AI employees are not taxable" but rather tax deductible - marking a significant shift in how we think about AI resources in business.
🌶️ The concept of paying for work is changing with AI. Not only is it changing how SaaS products charge (outcome v seats), it may create a clear distinction between human labor and computer labor.
a16z's Tech Vision for 2025
Ben Lang shared a comprehensive breakdown of a16z's predictions for tech in 2025, highlighting major shifts across multiple sectors. From AI-powered nuclear resurgence to AI-native storytelling, the forecast paints an exciting picture of AI's expanding influence.
🌶️ It’s an exciting time to be alive! We are looking at the need for personalized knowledge work as a driving force behind Chipp.
The Future of AI Agent Pricing
Aaron Levie from Box shared fascinating insights about different approaches to pricing AI agents, from labor-based models to outcome-based pricing. He explores four key pricing strategies:
🌶️ Speaking of pricing - this is the perfect summation of the potential business models for AI agents. What would you want to see?
