Tech enthusiasts are buzzing over the features of the upcoming iPhone 15, and a recent leak has revealed some significant design changes that Apple has had in store for its customers since 2007. The physical volume up and down buttons may be replaced by a touch-activated haptic feedback button, according to recent sources. While some iPhone users who are used to the physical buttons may not like this change, others could find it to be a refreshing one. The haptic feedback button offers a distinctive user experience that could improve the iPhone 15's overall functionality. These rumors claim that the iPhone 15's volume rocker and the mute button will both use haptic feedback in place of mechanical movement to simulate button presses. We are noticing this trend on both computers and smartphones, as Apple is allegedly trying to provide customers with a wholly haptic experience. Also Read: Meta’s Metaverse Ambitions Take A Backseat As AI Becomes A Top Priority The good news is that not every new iPhone this year will include these button modifications. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models, according to the rumors, would still retain two independent volume buttons and a mute switch, allowing users to rely on their ingrained iPhone muscle memory. Given that the iPhone has had a separate mute button for many years, some iPhone owners might not like the modifications in the upcoming iPhone 15. As generations of iPhone users have become accustomed to this switch's unique feel, removing it would be considered a regressive design decision. Also Read: Microsoft Integrates OpenAI’s GPT Technology Into Power Platform And Dynamics 365 Despite this, Apple's choice could have a sound functional rationale. The iPhone 15 Pro series could have room for an extra button on the side of the mute button that could simply be turned on or off. This button could enable some software customization and increase the device's versatility. Even though this is speculation at the moment, it is obvious that Apple has a valid rationale for modifying a design element that has been on the iPhone for fifteen years. Before the anticipated release of the iPhone 15 series in the first half of September, we can anticipate seeing further design hints in the months to come. The iPhone 15 Pro Max might also feature the narrowest bezels ever, according to several rumors. Apple has not yet given any hints that could confirm the official release date of the iPhone 15. However, like every year, it is anticipated to go on sale in the early weeks of September. Apple is expected to provide additional details about the new functions and aesthetics of the iPhone 15, giving us a clearer understanding of what to anticipate from this eagerly awaited smartphone.

Microsoft has introduced the integration of GPT's large language model (LLM) technology to both Dynamics 365 and its Power Platform developer tool. Power Virtual Agent and AI Builder are two of the upgraded tools that now will be using the power of OpenAI's GPT technology. The integration of ChatGPT with Power Platform and Dynamics 365 continues a trend and rise of AI utilization by digital behemoths like Google and Baidu, who have already integrated generative AI technology into their products. This integration is a logical step given Microsoft's multibillion-dollar partnership with OpenAI, which came into light in January. The Power Platform developer tool offers great help in building apps with little to no knowledge of coding. Businesses may program an AI bot for their company website or knowledge base to ask questions using the upgraded Power Virtual Agent, and the Conversation Booster feature will provide the bot with filtered, regulated answers that follow Microsoft's responsible AI guidelines. Also Read: Snapchat Launches New Chatbot ‘My AI’ Using OpenAI’s Generative Text Tool The Azure OpenAI Service, often known as the ChatGPT API, and comparable generative AI functionalities are now available in AI Builder. Using these tools, developers can create text utilizing GPT models to do things like summarise data, come up with content ideas, and direct client communications to the right department. Moreover, Microsoft has updated its Dynamics 365 business management software with AI integration. Dynamics 365 Copilot automates several processes, including the creation of email summaries of Teams meetings in Outlook, the writing of contextual responses to questions asked in chat and email, and the provision of an interactive chat environment over knowledge bases and case studies. Also Read: First-Generation iPhone Sells For Over 100 Times Its Original Price In Auction To simplify enterprises' sales and customer support operations, Copilot connects with customer relationship management (CRM) and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. However, these technologies' sophisticated language models have an issue with hallucination, or a tendency to invent things. Microsoft is aware of this problem and has made a conscious effort to address it by fine-tuning OpenAI's models. Despite this, the Bing Chat debacle has left some company owners concerned about turning over vital jobs to potentially unreliable AI systems. On March 16, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella will discuss how artificial intelligence could redefine productivity. Microsoft's plans to include AI into its Office productivity suite, which includes Word and Excel, have not been made public yet. The IT juggernaut has, however, previously disclosed that it intends to include AI in the Windows Operating System. It is unclear whether Clippy, the notorious Office assistant, will ultimately get the last laugh as software developers turn to generative AI assistants.

The advent of AI technology is already disrupting the business world. Especially, the rise of AI-based applications that can auto generate images, text, and whatnot. Amid the rising popularity of AI and controversies surrounding the increasing use cases, Google has announced the launch of MusicLM, a bot that can generate music from text prompts. According to a research paper published by Google, “MusicLM is a model that generates high-fidelity music using text prompts such as a melodious violin tune along with distorted guitar riff." The Google bot is capable of generating music based on text prompts such as "enchanting jazz song with a memorable saxophone solo and a solo singer" or "Berlin 90s techno with a low bass and strong kick." Google has even shared audio examples of the corresponding results on its Github page. Also Read: A Surge In Tech Layoffs 2022 As Industry Struggles To Recover However, the public shouldn't get their hopes up for a chance to use MusicLM just yet. Google has stated that it has no plans to release the bot to the public due to various risks including programming biases, technological glitches and the potential for copyright infringement. The study found that identifiable existing songs were present in 1% of examples. The launch of MusicLM comes amid the rising popularity of OpenAI's chatbot ChatGPT and Google's response to the competition, with the company ramping up the release of 20 new products and a version of Google Search with AI chatbot features. Also Read: Samsung Galaxy S23: Leaked Pricing Confirms Cost Ahead of Unveiling Despite its limitations, such as the use of negations and temporal ordering in text prompts and vocal quality, researchers plan to work towards "modeling of high-level song structure like introduction, verse, and chorus." The study highlights the need for further work to address the risks associated with music generation. Now it will be interesting to see when Google rolls out this amazing bot and how effectively it works.
