Welcome to The Daily AI Briefing! In today's rapidly evolving AI landscape, we're tracking significant developments across tech giants and startups alike. Meta plans to fully automate its ad platform, Microsoft offers free Sora access on Bing, and Google's async development agent Jules helps automate coding tasks. Plus, we'll explore Sakana AI's self-improving code technology and cover the latest AI tools and job opportunities that matter to you. Today's top stories include: - Meta's ambitious plan to eliminate humans from the ad creation process by 2026 - Microsoft's Bing Video Creator bringing OpenAI's Sora to mobile users for free - How to leverage Google's Jules for automated coding tasks - Sakana AI's Darwin Gödel Machine that upgrades its own code - The latest trending AI tools and job opportunities - A roundup of other significant AI developments Let's dive into Meta's fully automated AI ad platform. According to a Wall Street Journal report, Meta aims to develop tools that will completely remove humans from the advertising process by 2026. The system would allow companies to simply submit product images and budgets, leaving the AI to handle everything from crafting text and visuals to selecting target audiences and managing campaign placement. The technology will even create personalized ads that adapt in real-time based on user location and preferences. This initiative primarily targets smaller businesses without dedicated marketing staff, offering professional-grade advertising without the associated costs. It's worth noting that advertising is central to Mark Zuckerberg's AI strategy, accounting for 97% of Meta's annual revenue. In a significant move to democratize advanced AI video generation, Microsoft has announced Bing Video Creator, which integrates OpenAI's Sora model into the Bing mobile app. Users can create five-second video clips from text descriptions without requiring a subscription. The service provides 10 fast video generations and unlimited slower generations, with the ability to earn additional fast credits through Microsoft's rewards program. Currently available on iOS and Android mobile apps, desktop and Copilot Search releases are coming soon. Videos are currently limited to vertical format and 5-second clips, with up to three videos able to be created simultaneously. For developers looking to automate coding tasks, Google's async development agent Jules offers an impressive solution. The tool connects to your GitHub repositories and can automatically fix bugs, add features, and handle various software engineering tasks. Using Jules is straightforward: connect your GitHub account, select your repository and branch, describe your task in the chat, and approve the plan. Jules works asynchronously and allows you to publish the branch when complete. A notable advantage is that you get 60 daily tasks that refresh every 24 hours, making it completely free for handling repetitive coding work. In a fascinating development for self-improving AI, researchers from Sakana AI and the University of British Columbia have introduced the Darwin Gödel Machine. This AI agent can rewrite its own code to improve its performance on tasks, achieving up to 150% performance improvements without human intervention. Starting as a coding assistant, DGM autonomously discovers improvements like editing tools, error memory, and peer review capabilities. The system showed significant performance boosts in coding benchmarks, jumping from 20% to 50% on SWE-bench and from 14% to over 30% on Polyglot. Inspired by Darwinian evolution, DGM experiments with code changes, retains effective modifications, and archives promising "mutations" for future improvements. Interestingly, these self-taught improvements enhanced performance even when the underlying model was changed. Among trending AI tools today, we have ElevenLab's updated Conversational AI 2.0 platform, Google Edge Gallery for deploying AI across various applications, Ant
