1. GPT Store: the second democratization of OpenAI 🤖🛒

Finally, after almost two months of waiting since they announced it in earnest, OpenAI has launched the GPT Store 🎇 Ok, but what is the GPT Store? It's a digital store that is here to redefine 📲 the way we interact with artificial intelligence. If you thought we had enough to do and learn with ChatGPT 😅, get ready for something much more powerful 💪🏼.

Although it has the word Store, we are not talking about a showcase 🛍️ in the style of the App Store or Google Play; rather, it is a complete ecosystem of GPTs (Generative Pre-trained Transformers) created by both OpenAI experts 🧑🏼‍💻 and users like you or me 😏.

The uses and approaches are endless, like life itself: whether it's help with creative writing, an assistant for your cooking recipes, a programming tutor, or improving your workouts 🏋🏼‍♂️, the GPT Store has it. And if it doesn't, you can create one yourself ⌨️.

They have made the future easy, ensuring ease of use and accessibility 🆒 and making GPT customization for everyone. It's clear they wanted any non-technical user 👨🏻‍💼 to have the ability to create, and this is where the level of social penetration resides 😎.

This GPT Store not only serves to download GPTs, but also to monetize 🫰🏼 creations. Although the economic details are not yet fully defined, we do know that creators will be remunerated based on usage 📊 and not with their own pricing policies.

For the privacy-obsessed 😵‍💫 (all of us a little bit, really), OpenAI ensures that conversations with GPTs are confidential, especially important in business environments where confidentiality was beginning to limit the use of AI 🤫.

👉🏻 Here you can discover more about the GPT Store and how it's changing the AI game 🤯.

2. The 3 Challenges of Consumption 2024 🛍️🌍

Both online and offline, commerce and brands are facing a new era in 2024 full of challenges and opportunities 🎯. Since there's no other choice but to face them, here are some insights that you might possibly notice 👀 around you, which we can confirm here ✅:

  1. Impact of Inflation: inflation is eroding consumer purchasing power 🥲 and, as a result, affecting buying habits. Commerce needs to adapt quickly to this new reality, where accumulated savings are no longer a safe lifeline 🙅🏻‍♀️🛟. The relevance of the value proposition, i.e., how indispensable what you offer to your user is once they have paid for the basics🏠🍜, will give you the status of either relevant or dispensable for your product or service.

  2. Polarized Market 🌞🌚: basically, we are seeing the greatest polarization in consumption between affordable price offerings 🍺 and those with high added value 💍. Brands must position themselves clearly to survive in this changing environment. Intermediate positions are being left behind.

  3. Alternative Consumer Models 📦: the growth in alternative consumption models such as rental, pay-per-use, or second-hand products. They respond to economic needs, but also to sustainable trends. And not only that, the trend towards keep it simple, minimalism 🔳, and material detachment 👋🏼 typical of the Millennial and Z generations, who exchange ownership commitment for the freedom of enjoyment🪽.

In summary, it's time to reinvent and adapt to a more demanding and conscious consumer🥶, in a challenging economic environment.

3. Tomato.ai: AI to soften accents in Contact Centers 🗣️🍅

Tomato.ai, an artificial intelligence platform, has taken a big leap by securing an investment of 10 million euros💰, positioning itself as a pioneer in innovation in the Contact Centers industry ☎️.

The company will launch a real-time AI-based solution that softens the accents of agents, preserving the identity of their voice. This natural sound 🌬️ technology works from the get-go without the need for previous training, is applicable to any new agent 🤗, and eliminates the need for complicated transcriptions.

The co-founders of Tomato.ai, based in the USA🇺🇸, are serial entrepreneurs with previous experience in Google's voice field. After selling their companies to major corporations, they focused on accent softening 👽.

On a global level, this solution has the potential to create new jobs for people who would otherwise be excluded from better-paid jobs 👩🏼‍💼 in their market.

Although it retains the tone, expressions, and personality of the voice 💁🏻‍♀️, it ultimately neutralizes something as characteristic as a person's accent 🤔. In a way, the expectation is that accent softening will become a standard feature in most voice calls.

It opens up a debate: is it a matter of standardization and denial of a person's identity? Or a real need for good understanding, impossible without this 'noise reduction'? ⚖️
