New Service Auto-Selects Best AI Engine for Your Next Writing Project

A San Francisco startup has just released what could be one of the smartest AI services of the year: An app that promises to auto-select the best AI engine for your next writing or other project.

Essentially, instead of wondering if you should turn to ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Anthropic’s Claude — or any number of other AI chatbots — to write your next article, for example, the new service, dubbed Martian, will do all that analysis and choosing for you.

Says Shriyash Upadhyay, co-founder, Martian: “We can automatically choose the right model, not even on a task-by-task basis, but a query-by-query basis. This allows for lower costs and higher performance — because it means that you don’t always have to use a single model.”

Besides promising to be the perfect selection coach, Martian — and similar services — help keep AI writing costs low by offering access to a wide array of AI chatbots with just one click or tap.

*Google’s Latest Sleight-of-Hand: Transforming Your Article Into a Co-Hosted Podcast: Google AI has come-up with a remarkable new feature that auto-transforms your article, blog post or other text into an extremely engaging, co-hosted podcast.

Essentially, the new tech studies your text, then uses two, extremely lifelike and animated robot voices — one male, one female — to discuss the key points and themes in your piece.

Far from a gimmick, the new feature of Google’s Notebook LM platform can enhance any text-based digital property looking to add co-hosted, audio podcasts to its mix.

Essentially, the association has agreed to work with Grammarly AI to infuse its technology into college classes.

Observes a Business Wire press release: “This effort will drive research and dialogue on how higher education institutions can incorporate AI technologies in ways that are ethical, effective — and aligned with educational goals.”

Sounds good in theory.

*PR Newswire Ditches Human Writers for AI Writing:
Public relations juggernaut PR Newswire has released a new suite of AI tools designed to help customers write and distribute press releases.

*Microsoft Copilot’s New Unified Database: From Chaos to Clarity in a Click: Microsoft is out with a key, new feature for its Copilot that consolidates everything it knows about your company — as well as everything else you’d like included from the Web — into a single database.

The pitch: With the unified database, you’ll have much greater flexibility in creating articles and other text on-the-fly with Copilot.

Observes writer Graham Barlow: “So you could prompt Copilot with something like ‘make a report similar to that one we did last month for Eric –but with the new data’ — and it will compile it for you.”

*New Auto-Essays: Without the Annoying Learning Part: Yet another AI startup has released a new auto-writing app promising to auto-write tough-to-beat, instant essays.

Dubbed PerfectEssayWriter.ai, the tool is also designed to engage in Q&As with you and also revise your own writing.

Still no definitive word if this AI essay app is currently the best essay writer the planet has ever seen.

*AI Big Picture: No End in Sight on Corporate AI Spending Spree: Apparently, SpendFest 2024 — wherein major investors from across the world throw gobs and gobs of money at the concept of AI — is still in full swing.

Observes writer Nate Rattner: “Generative artificial intelligence has sparked one of the biggest spending booms in modern American history, as companies and investors bet hundreds of billions of dollars that the technology will revolutionize the global economy and one day lead to massive profits.

“The question is when, and even whether, all those investments will pay off.”
