Here's a quick look at today's AI briefing

Intel is downsizing its workforce by over 15 percent as part of a new cost savings plan for 2025. The $10 billion cost saving plan will mean a headcount reduction of greater than 15,000 roles. Intel plans to reduce its R&D and marketing spending by billions each year through 2026, reduce capital expenditures by more than 20 percent this year, restructure to stop non-essential work, and review all active projects and equipment to make sure it's not spending too much. The company recently reported a loss of $1.6 billion for Q2, which is substantially more than the $437 million it lost the previous quarter.

OpenAI's new advanced voice mode for ChatGPT allows the AI chatbot to sing, mimic accents, correct pronunciation, and perform narrative storytelling in a variety of voices and styles. Clips have emerged online demonstrating these capabilities, which work across dozens of languages.
