🤖 AI Embraces Wall St, Bro

AND Google Unleashes Bard Across More Services

What's up? You're reading Inclined AI. As an old meme frog used to say, “It’s Wednesday, my dudes.”

Here's what you need to know:

  • Morgan Stanley kicks off a Generative AI on Wall Street

  • Google puts Bard in more places where it belongs

  • Google DeepMind wants to cure diseases with new AI tool

  • 404 Media maps out the most popular generative AI sites (Spoiler: it’s a lot of NSFW)

Morgan Stanley kicked Wall Street into the Generative AI age, and it's a big deal.

Imagine your go-to financial guru is now a virtual assistant trained by OpenAI. That's right, the bank's got its own AI financial whisperer. Think Siri for stock options or Alexa for assets, only smarter.

Now, don't get it twisted.

Morgan Stanley co-president Andy Saperstein assures us that flesh-and-blood financial advisors aren't going extinct.

Instead of sifting through the virtual equivalent of dusty old file cabinets—try 100,000 research reports and documents—they'll instantly access a goldmine of info.

This movement is like going from a flip phone to an iPhone 13 Pro Max overnight.

Oh, and get this.

Forget typing keywords into a search bar like it's 2005. Advisors can just ask this genius-in-a-box complete sentences. No "keyword-stuffing" is needed.

So, it's like having a cup of coffee with a brainy friend who knows the ins and outs of global finance.

Why does this matter?

For eons, Wall Street was a "you can look, but you can't touch" zone for AI. Not anymore. Morgan Stanley's leap is like letting everyone play with the high-tech toys usually reserved for the tech-savvy nerds at the cool kids' table.

Financial advisors can focus more on you and less on the grunt work.

And when those folks have more time for hand-holding, or let's say, dream-realizing, that's a win for everybody.

Google is slipping Bard, its own AI chatterbox, into Gmail, Docs, and Sheets for paying customers.

Think of it as Google's warm-up act for the main event: Gemini.

Forget merely auto-filling your emails; Bard, powered by a revamped PaLM2 model, is here to do your digital housekeeping. 

Imagine: "Hey, Bard, summarize my kids' 237 back-to-school emails." Bam! In minutes, Bard gives you the lowdown faster than you can spell 'PTA meeting.'

Google's taking its language model game up a notch by adding a "double-check" feature.

Green text means verified info, while orange is Bard saying, "Eh, might wanna look this up, buddy." Google's trying to shake off those hallucination blues where AI goes off-script, spewing fictional 'facts.'

Why's this a big deal?

Google is slowly integrating Bard across its galaxy of services, turning it into your digital Alfred (minus the British accent).

As Bard gains more "agentive capabilities," expect it to evolve into something that doesn't just search or summarize but can execute tasks for you.

So, as we drum our fingers waiting for Gemini, Google is showing it knows how to build a bridge to future AI integration—one Bard request at a time.
