Slack, a professional messaging network, will use ChatGPT app technology
Your workplace may soon welcome the ChatGPT artificial intelligence chatbot. The professional messaging service Slack will soon incorporate the OpenAI technology, which has gained enormous popularity since its November introduction, according to an announcement made Tuesday by SalesForce, the parent company of Slack.
Companies can sign up for a waitlist to be added to the beta edition of the ChatGPT app for Slack when it becomes available. The software is currently under beta testing.
Powered by OpenAI's huge language models, ChatGPT, according to SalesForce, "provides a conversational interface to acquire instant conversation summaries to keep informed, research tools to learn about any topic, and give writing assistance to swiftly create messages." Together with Snap, Quizlet, Instacart, and Shopify, Slack is the most recent business to use OpenAI technology.
Now, other tech firms have also released AI bots, like Google's Bard and Microsoft's Bing-powered AI platform.
Government notification to include virtual assets under the money laundering act for cryptocurrencies in India
According to the most recent decision made by the central government regarding digital assets, businesses dealing in cryptocurrencies or virtual assets will now be covered by the PMLA, or Prevention of Money Laundering Act 2002.
According to the gazette notification published on March 7 by the Union Finance Ministry, virtual digital assets (VDAs) will now be regarded as "reporting entities" under the PMLA. Additionally, it is required of cryptocurrency exchanges and intermediaries that deal with VDAs to undertake KYC on their users and clients. Also, cryptocurrency exchanges are obligated to notify the Financial Intelligence Unit of India (FIU-IND) of any questionable transactions.
The above action, which has been done to crack down on the misuse of digital assets, is a step towards regulating this market. Here it is noted that although the RBI believes cryptocurrencies are similar to a Ponzi scheme, the Indian government has not yet finalised rules and regulations surrounding them.
