3. The Intercept, Raw Story, and AlterNet file suit against OpenAI and Microsoft.

Three news organizations, The Intercept, Raw Story, and AlterNet, have separately filed lawsuits against OpenAI and Microsoft, accusing them of copyright infringement related to ChatGPT. The lawsuits allege that ChatGPT reproduces copyrighted journalism without including author, title, or copyright information. The publications claim that if ChatGPT was trained on material with copyright information, it should communicate that. Raw Story and AlterNet assert that OpenAI and Microsoft knew ChatGPT would generate less revenue if users believed responses violated third-party copyrights. These lawsuits add to a series of legal challenges involving AI developers and copyright infringement claims. OpenAI faces a similar lawsuit from The New York Times, while Getty Images is suing Stability AI.

4. Samsung's cutting-edge microSD cards redefine mobile computing and on-device AI.

Samsung introduces faster microSD cards, enabling on-device AI for data-heavy apps. Sampling the 256GB SD Express version, it reads data at 800MB/s, 1.4 times faster than SATA SSDs. Mass production of the 1TB UHS-1 microSD card begins, launching Q3 2024. Faster speeds risk higher temperatures; Samsung addresses this with dynamic thermal guard technology. On-device AI demand rises, allowing generative AI tasks without cloud API calls. Samsung aims to expand phone memory for data-intensive tasks, moving away from cloud dependency. The definition of on-device AI remains broad, covering tasks like speech recognition, real-time translation, and algorithm-based photo editing on smartphones.
