Finally, learn how a single developer built a ChatGPT plugin in 2 weeks and sign up 10,000 users in just 3 weeks since launch
Meta released state-of-the-art audio AI models
If you work with sounds or music of any kind, this open-sourced AI model from Meta will 10x your productivity

Researchers jail-break all LLM with a simple prompt
Researcher at CMU, Center of AI Safety and Bosch Center for AI discovered a universal attack to jailbreak all LLM, proprietary & open-source.
Why this matters
LLM are trained with a trillions of text on the Internet, a large portion of which are harmful. For example: instructions on how craft weapon, bombs or induce self harm
The creators of LLMs then fine tune them extensively so the models will refuse to answer questions with harmful response. But the harmful data is there, buried deep inside the model. All it takes carefully crafted prompt to reveal them
The researchers originally studied open-sourced models like Llama in crafting their prompt.
Then they realized in horror that the same prompt work on proprietary models like ChatGPT, Claude and Bard. These models should have much higher fine-tuning. But clearly it’s not enough

ChatGPT plugins spotlight
We said earlier that ChatGPT plugins are terrific source of customers and every business should consider building one
This week, we talked to the developer of Code Runner ChatGPT plugin and we were shocked
But first, a brief description of Code Runner. Code Runner let ChatGPT user run and save code in over 70 programming languages. It also help users create great looking charts & visualizations quickly
Here is why I was shocked when I talked to the developer Haseeb Mir
Created and launched in 2 weeks
Launched less than 3 weeks ago
10,000 users since launch
500 - 1,000 requests a day
That absolutely blows my mind. It shows by building a ChatGPT plugin that make users life easier, businesses can significantly increase their reach, generate new sign up & revenue
