Poeâs New Web Apps Feature Rivals Anthropicâs Artifacts.
Quoraâs Poe has introduced Previews, enabling users to create interactive web apps directly within chats with AI-powered chatbots like Anthropicâs Claude and OpenAIâs GPT-4o. Users can build data visualizations, games, and other applications using multiple chatbots and data from uploaded files. These apps, which incorporate HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, can be shared via links. Previews are similar to Anthropicâs Artifacts but support output from any chatbot. This new feature is part of Poeâs premium plan, costing $20 monthly. However, Poe recently faced scrutiny for allowing users to download paywalled articles through its in-house Assistant chatbot.

Microsoft and Apple Step Back from OpenAI Board Amid Regulatory Scrutiny.
Microsoft has stepped down from its observer role on OpenAIâs board, while Apple has decided not to take up a similar position. This move follows increased regulatory scrutiny of Big Tech investments in AI startups. Microsoft, which invested $13 billion in OpenAI, will now engage with the company through regular meetings instead. OpenAI will adopt a new strategy to keep key partners like Microsoft and Apple informed, under the leadership of Sarah Friar, its new CFO. This change comes amid antitrust concerns in the US and EU about the Microsoft-OpenAI partnership. Despite the board exit, Microsoft remains a crucial partner for OpenAI, providing essential computing resources and driving significant AI service demand on its Azure platform.

Anthropic Unveils Prompt Playground to Enhance AI App Development.
Anthropic has introduced new features to enhance prompt engineering for its language model, Claude. The latest update allows developers to generate, test, and evaluate prompts using Claude 3.5 Sonnet, housed under the new âEvaluateâ tab in Anthropic Console. This tool helps improve AI application prompts by providing quick feedback and enabling side-by-side comparisons of prompt effectiveness. Developers can upload real-world examples or use AI-generated test cases, saving time and effort, particularly for those with little prompt engineering experience. These tools aim to facilitate the creation of better AI applications and support broader enterprise adoption of generative AI.
