Claude 3.5 Sonnet

Anthropic has launched Claude 3.5 Sonnet, its latest AI model, claiming it outperforms OpenAI’s GPT-4o and Google’s Gemini in various tasks.

The model, available on the web and iOS, excels in writing, code translation, handling workflows, interpreting charts, and understanding humour.

Additionally, Anthropic introduced "Artifacts," a feature allowing users to interact with generated content within the app.

PocketFM x ElevenLabs

Pocket FM has partnered with voice-cloning company ElevenLabs to convert text content into audio series using AI.

The collaboration aims to triple Pocket FM’s content library, which already includes 100,000 hours of audio.

This move allows writers to produce more content faster and reduces production costs by 90%.

Pocket FM plans to expand this AI tool to all creators soon, integrating it into their workflow to enhance productivity and quality.

Banking tops the list with 54% of roles potentially automated, followed by insurance (48%) and energy (43%).

Citi expects new roles like AI managers to emerge.

The report estimates AI could add $170 billion, or 9%, to the global banking sector's profit pool by 2028.
