MidJourney, the AI art-generating team, just dropped a new feature: they call it “Panning”. It allows you to click up/down/left/right arrows to extend an image in that direction. Say hello to your wildest panoramic dreams. But the maddest thing: You can re-prompt whilst your mid-pan so that your images can get super funky.

It looks like Google made a sneaky change to their policies over the weekend, and it goes something like this: “If it’s on the web, then it’s fair game for our AI models.” They’re making an attempt to reserve the right to harvest and harness (i.e. build AI models) anything online. The biggest AI playground imaginable!

I know text-to-note tools seem like a pretty basic weekend-project application these days, but AudioPen’s implementation is pretty extensive! It supports multiple languages, has the ability to fix up grammar on the fly, can change the style of your notes, manages storage/organisation, and all straight from your voice.

Open AI has disabled the browse with Bing feature on ChatGPT+ beta on a temporary basis. The reason is “to do right by content owners”.
