Amazon’s Lens Live AI shops for anything you can see
Amazon has introduced Lens Live, a new feature that uses your camera to scan the environment around you and display matching product listings. This feature is only available on the Amazon Shopping app on iOS and allows you to pan your camera around a room or focus on a specific product. Lens Live uses an object detection model to identify products in real-time and compare them against the billions of products on the marketplace. It displays similar items in a swipeable carousel and offers options to add products to your cart or wishlist. It also integrates Amazon's AI assistant Rufus to summarize product descriptions and answer questions. The feature builds upon Amazon's visual search features.
Tesla’s new ‘Master Plan’ sounds like AI slop
Tesla's latest "Master Plan" is a vague entry in the company's ongoing series of mission statements, written by Elon Musk's social media platform, X. The plan focuses on artificial intelligence, humanoid robots, self-driving cars, and the concept of "sustainable abundance." The plan aims to create technologically advanced products that are affordable and available at scale to build a flourishing and unconstrained society. Tesla's previous plans, published in 2006, 2016, and 2023, aimed to build electric sports cars, electric semi trucks, buses, self-driving vehicles, and robotaxis. However, the latest iteration is more like a glorified TED Talk than a Gannt Chart with deadlines and KPIs. Users have commented that the new plan reads more like a glorified TED Talk than a Gannt Chart with deadlines and KPIs. Elon Musk seems to regret some of the things included in the previous plans, admitting that the second plan remains unfinished.
OpenAI starts building out its app team
OpenAI is expanding its Applications team under Fidji Simo, who left her role as Instacart's CEO on August 18th. The company announced the addition of a new CTO of applications and acquiring a product analytics company, Statsig, for $1.1 billion. OpenAI will appoint Vijaye Raji as CTO of Applications, responsible for product engineering for ChatGPT and Codex. Once the acquisition is finalized, Statsig employees will become OpenAI employees, with the deal subject to regulatory approval. OpenAI also announced the promotion of Srinivas Narayanan to CTO of B2B Applications, overseeing all business-side applications. Kevin Weil, OpenAI's CPO, will transition into the research side of the company as VP of AI for Science, working closely with Mark Chen. As part of this transition, Weil's former product team, including ChatGPT head Nick Turley, will report directly to Simo.
