WorkThere was only one crypto ad at the Super Bowl this yearBut while crypto ads mostly disappeared from the Super Bowl this year, there’s no guarantee they’ll be gone for good. Though it’s staring down the looming reality of mass regulation, the crypto market is by no means dead. When the economy recovers, when Americans have more money to waste, the surviving crypto companies will surely come back out to play. Work� � | | � WorkWork � | | WorkWork

WorkWriter deploys home-cooked large language models to power up enterprise copyA few dozen companies have been using the models since late last year, and we haven’t heard about any egregious problems like we did on day one of Microsoft and Google’s attempts at popularizing generative AI… so that’s a good sign. This is the success of which I spoke earlier. While ChatGPT is certainly impressive, as a generalist or dilettante AI it’s hard to say what it’s actually capable of being used for.
