“Artificial intelligence will be a “tsunami hitting the #labour market”, with young people worst affected, the head of the International Monetary Fund warned the World Economic Forum on Friday.

Kristalina Georgieva told delegates in Davos that the IMF’s own research suggested there would be a big transformation of demand for #skills, as the technology becomes increasingly widespread.

“We expect over the next years, in advanced economies, 60% of jobs to be affected by #AI, either #enhanced or #eliminated or #transformed – 40% globally,” she said. “This is like a tsunami hitting the labour market.””

Back to not knowing what day it is. Feels like Tuesday or Thursday. Nope, it's Wednesday. Anyway, here is my bull fighting skill. I think it needs work.

You can finally chat with Amazon’s AI-enhanced Alexa+ on the web

The just-launched website lets you share files with Alexa+, manage shopping lists and to-do items, control smart home devices, and more.

Summary created by Smart Answers AI

In summary:

• Amazon has launched a web portal for Alexa+ at Alexa.com, providing early access users with a ChatGPT-like interface featuring suggested prompts and easy text copying capabilities.
• PCWorld reports the portal allows file uploads for document analysis and offers improved usability compared to previous voice-only interactions with Amazon’s AI assistant.
• Alexa+ remains free during early access, with future plans to offer it free to Prime members while charging non-Prime users a monthly fee.

It’s been nearly a year since Amazon first launched the new, AI-enhanced Alexa+, but until now, a key feature has been missing: the ability to access and chat with Alexa+ on the web. 

Now it appears Amazon has fulfilled that promise, with an Alexa+ web portal finally going live—for at least some Alexa+ early access users, anyway—at Alexa.com. 

The new Alexa+ web portal will look familiar to anyone who’s accessed ChatGPT or Google Gemini on the web. A big chatbox sits front and center, with a friendly “Hello Ben, how can I help?” heading, along with buttons that reveal suggested prompts (“Create a plan for my next getaway,” “Teach me a surprising fun fact,” “Add an event to my calendar,” “Create an image of a dinosaur,” “Book a table at a nearby restaurant”) on mouse rollover. 

On the left side of the screen are shortcuts to your Alexa+ chat history (good for revisiting Alexa+ discussions you’ve had on an Echo speaker), smart home controls (just basic ones, mind you), your calendar, lists, reminders, and uploaded files. 

That last feature—the ability to upload files to Alexa+—is a big one, as it allows you to do things like upload resumes for Alexa to tinker with, or any other documents you’d like Alexa to analyze.  

Just for fun, I uploaded a configuration file for the Jellyfin media player installation on my Raspberry Pi, and Alexa+ did a reasonably good job of sifting through the code and offering optimization suggestions. (Alexa+ gets a decent chunk of its AI smarts courtesy of Anthropic’s Claude.) I then picked up the conversation on an Echo speaker, allowing Alexa and me to continue batting around Jellyfin ideas. 

Another nifty thing about the new Alexa+ web portal is that it makes Alexa+’s ability to compose letters and other documents a lot more useful. Before, if you asked Alexa+ to write (for example) a thank-you letter to a friend, there was no easy way to grab the text and put it into a text editor for fine-tuning. (It’s possible to access Alexa+ chats in the Alexa app, but it’s a tedious process.) With the web portal, you can just click the Copy button beneath any Alexa+ response, just as you can with ChatGPT or Gemini.

An anderer Stelle habe ich da mal versucht etwas einzuordnen. Es ist mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit nicht so, dass die #glsbank einen Anruf aus den #usa bekam.

Das braucht es gar nicht, denn #Banken und "Unternehmen müssen Anti-Terrorismus-Compliance Programme betreiben, und im Zuge dieser wie auch anderer Programme greift die #enhanced due diligence („verstärkte Sorgfaltspflicht”). Deshalb prüfen Unternehmen proaktiv Medienberichten, öffentlich zugängliche Datenbanken, Social-Media-Aktivitäten und bewerten anschließend das #Risiko ob eine Person materiell oder finanziell #Terrorgruppen unterstützt.

Das bedeutet, um zivil- oder strafrechtliche #Haftung zu verhindern, handeln Banken und Unternehmen, aber auch vorbeugend, selbst wenn die konkrete Person nicht auf einer offiziellen Liste steht!"

It is so hard to make them look cute, specially with Tibbles who always looks pissed off on pictures. (He hates pictures. 😹)
