Google Bard’s Latest Update Boosts Creativity With More Drafts

Friday, April 21, 2023

How many of you watched "Silicon Valley" during its run?

I did. And there was something about jumping into it, several seasons in, just as I was dipping my toe into the world of tech journalism. Somehow, it made me feel included in something big – like I had a chance to be one of the cool kids.

And as I look around at our industry, over three years since the show's series finale aired, I can't help but lament the absence of "Silicon Valley" today.

Can you imagine what the writers could do with the current state of AI calamity? Picture Gavin Belson making grand proclamations and orders about Hooli's stake in the race to win at AI. Richard & Friends would emerge as the seemingly victorious underdog, only to be foiled by the giants. I would, as the kids say, have no notes.

But as I wax creatively on the plotline of a TV series that no longer exists, something else arises: Who would be in the proverbial writer's room? Would it be we mere mortals, or – you guessed it – our friendly, neighborhood Generative AI?

Loathe as I am to admit it, it's hard not to imagine a future where the (human) minds behind a show like "Silicon Valley" wouldn't produce at least one episode fully written by AI. In fact, its star, Thomas Middleditch, once appeared in a short film written entirely by neural-network-powered AI.

That's why I wanted to highlight a recent article from Senior News Writer Matt Southern about Google Bard's latest update, which is rooted in – drumroll please – creativity. "Bard," he explains, "was initially conceived as a creative tool to help users draft written content … and brainstorm ideas."

And as much fun as I have training, I mean, playing with these models – I regret (or am happy?) to inform you that these emails are still written by little old me: AZW, the human mind and content creator.

So is this list of other articles I'd like to write home about:

  • The states are piling onto the Justice Department's antitrust lawsuit against Google. Kristi Hines explains why all 17 – count 'em, 17 – states are joining in the allegations of anti-competitive practices with its ad technology.
  • Also: What is Auto-GPT?  And should you freak out about it? Stay calm and read on: Roger Montti, as always, has you covered here.
  • ICYMI: We compiled a list of alternatives to AmazonSmile for integrated charity donations.

That's all from me for a while – I'm heading out on vacation for two weeks. Until then, I wish you the happiest of Fridays, the greatest of weekends, and the most creative of days.

In sentient affability,

AZW

5 Alternatives To AmazonSmile For Integrated Charity Donations

By Corey Morris

Many thought leaders in the non-profit sector interpret the news as a signal to reprioritize the development of their organization's mission, vision, and values in an effort to attract major donations.

While this is incredibly important for any brand to prioritize, it takes time. And if there's anything non-profit leaders don't have, it's time.

In conclusion, there are many other accessible, integrated charity donation platforms, even though AmazonSmile's demise may be distressing for non-profit organizations that have grown dependent on the platform.

Despite the inconvenience, it's crucial for non-profit organizations to carefully consider which platform best suits their needs because each of the platforms we've covered offers special features, pricing structures, and areas of specialization.

SEO-First Thinking: How to Promote SEO For Company Growth

By Helen Pollitt

S.E.O. needs to be front and center in company communications.

Find the best way to do that at your company, whether it's a monthly report and email briefing to key stakeholders or a company-wide message on your internal chat.

It is very possible for a company to begin thinking S.E.O.-first, but it takes time and strong stakeholder relationships to make it work.

S.E.O., especially for an online organization, is highly important for reputation management, leads, brand awareness, and ultimately revenue.

It's not alone in that.

But it is fairly unique in that not many other departments that impact these can be damaged so easily and take so long to then repair.

7 Reasons Why Content Needs Amazing Images, Videos & Visuals

By Sam Hollingsworth

Humans are visual-oriented beings.

We have five critical senses that we use every day to problem solve and get through our daily lives, each of which helps humans significantly.

Visuals affect how people digest content as well as how they understand it, retain it, and even engage with it.

Visuals also affect how that content shows up in organic search and how people react to it in search.
