  • Good morning from OWITH.ai, the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in the AI and tech world. Today, we have an interesting lineup of news stories that cover a wide range of topics. So let's dive in!First up, OpenAI, the leading artificial intelligence company, is facing multiple challenges in 2024. They recently fired their CEO Sam Altman, which has raised concerns about credibility and transparency within the company. OpenAI is also dealing with legal battles, including a copyright infringement lawsuit from The New York Times and potential lawsuits from film and video game studios. Competitors like Google and Meta are catching up with their own AI models, which may lead to price wars and limited profitability for OpenAI. The accuracy of OpenAI's AI systems has also been criticized for generating false information. Overall, OpenAI needs to navigate these challenges to maintain its position as a leading AI company.Moving on to our next story, we delve into the concept of moral fashions and how they impact discussions about AI. Moral fashions are strong beliefs that may be false or bad but are considered good or true at a particular time. In pro-AI circles, certain ideas are accepted, while others are considered taboo. The author raises the point that AI may not be as revolutionary as many believe, particularly in the case of artificial general intelligence (AGI). Challenging these moral fashions can uncover hidden truths and provide a better understanding of AI.In other news, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy is continuing the company's investments in the TV and movie streaming business. While some question the rationale behind these investments, Jassy sees great potential in Prime Video. The company recently made changes like cutting jobs and introducing ads in Prime Video content to focus on profitability. At the same time, Amazon is looking to acquire more live sports rights. Jassy's leadership will shape the direction of Amazon's video business.Shifting gears, we discuss the challenges faced by blockchain startups in the crypto world. Despite their dedication to decentralization, these startups are subject to the same business forces as traditional startups. The changing venture capital environment and high-profile frauds have impacted the crypto sector. Startups will need to exercise discipline and navigate these challenges to survive and thrive.Next, we explore the changing landscape for startups. The past decade saw a boom in billion-dollar startups, but now startups are facing a tougher environment. Funding rounds are harder to secure, some unicorn companies have shut down, and the IPO market has dried up. Despite these challenges, some startups still have a chance of survival.Lyft CEO David Risher has stated that the company will not venture into food delivery like its competitor Uber due to concerns about loneliness. Risher believes in getting people out and about instead of encouraging them to stay home. E-scooter startup Bird has filed for bankruptcy, highlighting the challenges faced by sharing economy companies. Apple is opening up its app store in Europe to competitors, but there are concerns about user safety.Lastly, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has initiated an investigation into generative AI partnerships between tech giants and startups. This inquiry could have significant implications for the AI and technology sectors. Additionally, there is a shift from a "model-forward" approach to a "product-forward" approach in AI innovation, with companies focusing more on using existing models through APIs.That wraps up today's episode of OWITH.ai. We've covered a range of topics from OpenAI's challenges to moral fashions in AI discussions, Amazon's video ventures, the struggles of bl
