Apple Unveils AI at WWDC to Transform Shopping

Apple’s new AI, revealed at the Worldwide Developers Conference, aims to revolutionize consumer device interactions and shopping habits. The iPhone will soon predict your next purchase by analyzing browsing history, purchase patterns and social media activity. With ChatGPT integration, Apple devices will handle customer inquiries, process orders and provide product recommendations. “Consumers will increasingly rely on AI for daily tasks and decision-making, shifting expectations towards more automated and intuitive services,” said Yi Fang, associate professor at Santa Clara University.

AI Startup Luma AI Launches Video Generation Tool

Luma AI has introduced the “Dream Machine,” a tool that creates video footage from text prompts. This platform, now available to the public, can generate high-definition videos in minutes. The Dream Machine’s ease of use could transform video content creation and impact the AI industry. It competes with OpenAI’s upcoming Sora, which also turns text into video. “Luma AI’s Dream Machine excels in quality and scene diversity,” said Liam Connell, lead AI engineer at Boston Consulting Group. “The videos look more realistic and varied compared to other models.”

Intuit Launches New AI System for Marketing

Intuit, the maker of TurboTax and QuickBooks, will preview its new “revenue intelligence” AI system designed to boost business revenue through smarter marketing. This technology uses always-on predictive and generative AI models to recommend optimal times to target customers and generate personalized content. The system will be unveiled at Intuit’s annual customer event in London on June 13. Customers can sign up for early access. “Predicting what spurs customers to explore, spend, and stay loyal is a key growth opportunity,” said Rania Succar, SVP and GM of Mailchimp.

Global AI Landscape Faces Regulatory Shifts

The global AI landscape is experiencing significant changes as regulators address the technology’s rapid advancements. The U.S. and Europe are considering tighter AI regulations, aiming to ensure ethical use and safety. Argentina’s President Javier Milei is positioning his country as a tech-friendly haven to attract AI investments, contrasting with the stricter approaches of the U.S. and Europe. In the U.S., federal appeals courts are cautious about adopting AI-related rules, reflecting broader hesitancy within the legal system. Industry leaders are urging the FDA to balance its approach to AI regulation in the pharmaceutical and medical device sectors to foster innovation without compromising safety.
