We've had another intense week of AI releases ranging all the way from Anthropic releasing a LLM that can remote control a computer. We have some use cases of that in today's video and various creative applications that we didn't even know were possible before. As you can see, I'm still on the road here. I'm in Goodyu, Brazil, where the wind is absolutely insane, and I've been using Starlink to upload these video clips to my video editors, which sit in Europe and Asia respectively. So here we go. A truly global episode of AI news that you can use, featuring all the AI releases of this week that you can actually put to work today. Okay, so this update made a lot of users very happy because Advanced Voice mode finally shipped to all European users, including Switzerland, Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein. So now everybody has access to Advanced voice. Check out another video on the channel for 20 plus use cases that you can put to work today with it. There's a lot you can do today, including the Universal translator. Next up, we have ElevenLabs coming out with an update, and this is easily summarized as prompt to any voice you can imagine. You can find this in their web app under Voices. And then if you go to add new voice, the very first option is Voice Voice design now. And voice design lets you design an entirely new voice from a text prompt. Let's give it a shot, shall we? Maybe randomize a few times. How about an angry old pirate? Loud and boisterous. Okay, but let's add a little bit of a personal touch here. How about this? Okay. You think you could cross Captain Match caramel latte and live to share the insta post? Okay, so this is a pirate with a Valley Girl accent.
Why are you so rude, man? Just stop doing that. I can't help it. This is my voice.
Let's see if I can actually pull this off. I imagine this would be be quite challenging. Let's have a look.
I faced storms that would turn your bougie hair white. And sea monsters that would make your knees, like, totally shake. I face storms that would turn your boji. I face storms that would turn your bougie hair white.
Whoa. Interesting. I don't know. I feel like doing one more. How about a massive evil ogre troll with a pirate accent? Let's generate.
Your weapons are but toothpicks to me. Surrender now and I may grant you a swift end. Your weapons are but toothpicks to me. Surrender now and I make. Your weapons are but toothpicks to me.
Okay, granted, these were super tricky. Let's give it one more that is quite simple. Let's do this movie trailer voice presets that they have in here. In a world on the brink of.
Chaos, one hero will rise. In a world on the brink of chaos, one hero will rise. Prepare yourself for a story of epic proportions coming. In a world on the brink of chaos.
That's pretty good. At this pace, we'll soon have text to literally everything. We have some updates from Canva with all of their AI features upgraded even further. They're calling this Droptober. And throughout October they're releasing a bunch of features and you can check out all of them in the link. In the description below, I'm going to highlight one that I find particularly interesting because minor improvements to a writing tool which is essentially a ChatGPT wrapper, is not something I consider worth featuring. But they have this brand new Whiteboard plus AI feature and I always thought that all of these whiteboard and mind mapping type features work really well with AI. So what I'm going to do is open up Canva here and just click on one of these whiteboard presets. How about the SWOT analysis? That looks good to me. And as you can see, there's a lot here. Okay. There's different layouts and you can fill all of these out. Zoom in and out. This is nothing revolutionary, but if I went ahead and used all of this, and not just used, I could also collaborate in here, right? I can add other users and we could all work on this collaborative SWOT analysis. Here's the new thing. You can go ahead and select everything and now you should be able to say magic, write, create, summary and you will summarize everything, everything on this whiteboard with the power of AI. And I think that's just pretty amazing. Look at this. Obviously there's no info in here, so this content will be useless, but I just thought.
