Synthesia’s Expressive AI Avatars Are Coming

Synthesia is doing big things for workplace communication with its new generation of AI-powered Expressive Avatars — designed to enhance digital interactions by adding human-like expressions and dynamics to virtual interactions.

Launched as part of Synthesia’s mission to democratize video production in corporate settings, these avatars use the EXPRESS-1 model to deliver realistic performances, aligning body language and vocal tones closely with the scripted content.

 

Adobe Launches Firefly Image 3

Adobe just released its latest and greatest image generation model, Firefly Image 3, promising users a more realistic image creation experience. With the ability to understand complex prompts and churn out pictures that are more detailed and true-to-life than ever before.

Firefly Image 3 achieves this by leveraging a larger training dataset, including contributions from Adobe Stock and AI-generated images, and improving its understanding of complex prompts, meaning it better understands what you’re trying to do even if you can’t quite explain it perfectly.

The upgrade also integrates with Photoshop, offering features like generating backgrounds and creating image variations. Even better, Adobe’s current pricing for this AI feature remains unchanged, so you don’t have to pay more for a better product. Shout out to Adobe.

Airlines To Pay You For Cancellations & Delays

The Department of Transportation [DOT] has introduced new regulations requiring airlines to issue refunds for cancellations, significant delays, or itinerary changes.

Under these rules, passengers must be compensated in cash or their original payment method rather than vouchers, unless they opt for travel credit or alternative transportation.

For domestic flights, changes need to exceed three hours, and for international flights, six hours.

The policy also covers refunds for fees associated with checked baggage delays and unprovided in-flight services. Additionally, airlines will need to disclose all potential extra fees upfront.

 

Poe Introduces Multi-Bot Chat

Poe, a platform for interacting with various AI models, introduced multi-bot chat — meaning you can now chat with multiple AI models at the same time, within a single conversation.

Imagine you’re writing a report. You can start by using one AI model to research the topic, then switch to another for in-depth analysis of the data.

Need to add some visuals? Just call on an image generation bot to create charts or diagrams. And to wrap it all up, a writing bot can help you polish your report using the insights gleaned from the other AI models. All this within a single conversation thread, and for a flat monthly fee of $20 on Poe.

Poe’s multi-bot chat is just the first step in this direction and sets the new precedent. Expect companies to roll out similar tools.
