2023: A Year of Groundbreaking AI Advancements

The past year has been monumental in the AI landscape with innovations from GPT-4's launch to the introduction of Open AI’s image and voice capabilities to custom GPTs. Google's Gemini and Anthropic's Claude have also made notable contributions alongside Pika AI text-to-video platform. These advancements signify the rapid evolution and increasing democratization of AI.

An Alternative To ChatGPT

Ever since all hell broke out at OpenAI, it’s evident if you’ve been using ChatGPT that it has had its issues. Open AI is currently capping the usage of their custom GPTs and even their latest GPT4 model. However, Microsoft has an alternative that is quite impressive. Copilot by Microsoft is a great choice and contains all the same capabilities that ChatGPT offers, with the ability to combine text, image and web data, do complex coding and data analysis, and it can even summarize or answer questions about videos watched in Microsoft edge which ChatGPT doesn’t even offer.
