TOP STORY
🗞️ FTC issues open warning to AI companies
Generated by DALL-E 3
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has warned AI companies that they are not exempt from privacy and confidentiality commitments.
The details:
Model-as-a-service companies (like OpenAI and Anthropic) that fail to abide by privacy commitments to users may be liable under laws enforced by the FTC.
This includes promises to not use customer data for secret purposes, such as training or updating AI models.
The FTC also requires businesses to delete products developed using unlawfully obtained consumer data.
Why it matters: AI companies constantly ingest new data to train new models and refine existing ones. Increased transparency is a win for consumers and businesses.
AI TOOL OF THE DAY
🤖 Generate professional logos and app icons with ChatGPT
Need to design a new logo? Logo Creator is a custom GPT that can automate the entire process or spark your creativity.
Simply prompt Logo Creator with your business or app idea and answer a few questions. It will then create up to nine options for you to choose from. You can refine your logo with additional prompts.
Sample prompt: “Generate a logo for my AI company called PhoenixAI.”
You can find this GPT under the DALL-E tab in the GPT Store.
BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT
📸 Steam to allow AI in video game creation
Source: Sheep/Steam user
Video game publisher Valve just issued new guidelines allowing Steam developers to release games that include pre-generated and live-generated AI content.
Key points:
Pre-generated content is created with the help of AI tools during game development.
Live-generated content is created with the help of AI tools while a game is running.
Valve will require the disclosure of AI use prior to a game’s release.
This policy shift comes after Valve initially rejected AI-generated game submissions.
The relevance: A large sector of game developers view AI technology as a destructive force in their industry. AI tools will certainly accelerate development, but will likely contribute to significant job displacement in the gaming industry.
