🧠AI is Changing the Way We Work and Live: Microsoft Leads the Way

• Microsoft has announced at their September 21st event, multiple AI advancements for their customers. Microsoft Copilot, a new AI companion, is coming to Windows 11, Microsoft 365, and Edge this fall. Copilot will help customers create faster, complete tasks with ease and lessens your cognitive load.

• Microsoft 365 Copilot will be generally available for enterprise customers on Nov. 1, 2023, along with Microsoft 365 Chat, a new AI assistant that will completely transform the way you work.

🔫Israel Unveils AI-Powered Tank, Giving Troops a Technological Edge

• Israel has unveiled a new AI-powered tank called the Barak, which is equipped with a 360-degree peripheral observation system that can detect and identify enemy threats, providing Israeli troops with a significant advantage on the battlefield.

• The Barak tank also features a number of other advanced technologies, including touch screens and an operational application store, which make it more efficient and easier to use than previous generations of tanks.

🦜Meta's Gen Z AI Chatbots: A Hit or Miss?

• Meta is testing new AI chatbots across its apps in an attempt to reel in younger customers.

• One of the chatbots, Bob the Robot, is based on the character Bender from "Futurama," which is a show that is likely to be more familiar to millennials than Gen Z.

• Gen Z humor is often absurdist, incredibly fast-moving, and "anti-humor," which is not something that Meta's chatbots seem to be able to replicate.

• Early comments don’t seem to be so accepting of the chatbots. Many consider them creepy and invasive.
