The use of artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly popular across multiple industries, and the International Data Corporation (IDC) predicts global spending on AI technologies will reach $154 billion in 2023. This represents an increase of 26,9 .XNUMX% compared to the previous year, driven by demand for AI-based solutions to improve efficiency, productivity and decision-making in various areas.
South Korea's Ministry of Science announced investments for its fund dedicated to the metaverse. According to the statement, released on the 7th, more than 40 billion won will be invested, around 160 million reais. The idea is that the contribution will boost the development of the metaverse in the country, and thus expand the reach of South Korea's technology industry. The main focus of the fund, according to the Korean government, is to encourage small companies that are developing metaversonic initiatives.
Reddit forums show that the ChatGPT has also been used as a therapist. Trying to heal from trauma and resolve issues related to mental health, internet users are looking for artificial intelligence (AI) as an alternative to psychological treatment due to its low cost and easy access. We spoke to a psychologist to understand the influence of technology on human mental health.
DressX, a digital fashion platform, raised $15 million in a Series A round led by Greenfield Capital and with participation from other investors including Slow Ventures, Red DAO and Warner Music Group. The company's goal is to scale its vision of the future of digital fashion, improve the performance of its NFT marketplace and mobile app, grow the community, and develop partnerships with various virtual platforms, including social media and gaming. The company is known for its partnerships with brands such as GAP, Bershka and Dundas.
A OpenAI announced this week the update of ChatGPT. Now, users who subscribe to the tool can now use GPT-4, which has a series of new functions, including the use of images and a larger database. However, despite being impressive, the OpenAI stated that GPT-4 can still be flawed and can “hallucinate” complex concepts. The company's recommendation is not to use the platform in high-risk contexts.
It has been some time since the term 'virthopsia' was coined and registered by Richard Dirnhofer, former head of Forensic Medicine at the University of Bern in Switzerland. This method includes the use of image scanning and augmented reality, allowing detailed analysis of the human body without the need for invasive procedures. Using computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, tissues, fractures and injuries can be precisely visualized.
