📰AI NEWS

AI stocks soaring on ChatGPT hype | The AI music industry is about to explode | South Korea, US and Canada pushing to lead the AI race

AI stocks are soaring on ChatGPT hype

The frenzy surrounding ChatGPT has created a market surge for AI stocks, with some up over 400% year to date.

Read more on AI stocks in the Further Study section below.

The AI music industry is about to explode

Billionaire Kuok Meng Ru, CEO of Caldecott Music Group, believes AI-generated instrumentals are one component to “empowering and democratizing” the music industry, and that they're "one of the beauties of the new trends in music."

His company created BandLab, an AI music production app that doubles as a social network for creators, and was valued at $315 million in 2021.

Separately adding to the same sentiment, David Guetta says the future of music is in AI. He thinks musicians will use AI as a tool to create new sounds in the future, because "every new music style comes from a new technology."

South Korea aims to join AI race as Rebellions.ai launches new chip

South Korean startup Rebellions.ai is racing to win big government contracts with its new AI chip called ATOM, created specifically for computer vision and chatbot AI applications. Due to its AI-focused design, the chip consumes only about 20% of the power of an Nvidia A100 chip on those tasks, Reuters reported.

The South Korean government is looking gain a solid foothold in the AI industry. It plans to invest more than $800 million over the next five years in an effort to lift the market share of Korean AI chips in domestic data centers from essentially zero to 80% by 2030.

US government announces National AI Research Resource

The United States wants to stay ahead of China in AI — and democratize access to AI research and development resources that were previously only accessible to large technology companies and universities. Read the full 104-page paper here.

Canada also wants a piece of the pie

Canada's François-Philippe Champagne announced a contribution of $40 million to Scale AI's 'record-breaking' financing round of $117 million. Champagne said he wants Canada to be at the forefront of the AI transition that revolutionizes how the world does business.
