Aaron here, bringing you your daily update on all things tech. In today’s digest, I’m covering GitHub's new AI tool, which aims to compete with HuggingFace, Azure, and others. But first… The headlines: 🏃 [One of the OpenAI cofounders has announced he’s leaving for Anthropic.Â]( 🔍 [Google has lost a potentially massive antitrust case over the company’s dominance.]( 🐦[In an email from its CEO, X has announced it is closing its San Francisco office.]( PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT [GitHub’s newest feature makes it easier to test and build with different AI models]( GitHub has just introduced [GitHub Models](, a new feature designed to let developers dive into generative AI without leaving their coding environment. This handy addition integrates directly with GitHub Codespaces and Visual Studio Code, allowing developers to experiment and build with AI models in one platform. With [GitHub Models](, you can explore some of the biggest models like Meta's Llama 3.1, OpenAI's GPT-4o and GPT-4o mini, Cohere's Command, and Mistral AI's Mistral Large 2, alongside other lesser known ones. It’s all about making it easier for developers to play around with these models, test different setups, and see what works—all without the need for complex setups or additional tools. What sets GitHub Models apart is its accessibility. Unlike platforms that cater to enterprise clients with more complicated workflows, GitHub Models is straightforward and available to everyone. It’s good for quickly trying out ideas or just getting a feel for what these AI models can do. This feature isn't just for the pros. GitHub Models is also finding its way into classrooms, with the [company announcing]( that Harvard's Professor David J. Malan is planning to incorporate it into the CS50 course. Currently, GitHub Models is in a limited public beta, so you'll need to sign up for the waitlist if you want to get early access. This release is part of Microsoft's larger goal to make AI more accessible and easy to use. [Check it out]( Tuesday, 6 August 2024 Yesterday's Top Products [Making Today — Your all-in-one dashboard: organize, plan & do]( [▲ 756+]( [ChatPlaygroundAI — Access and compare top AI models & AI browser copilots]( [▲ 449+]( [Letz DM — Find, DM & collab with TikTok influencers]( [▲ 379+]( [Wondercraft Audio Studio — Amazingly easy audio creation]( [▲ 342+]( [Dobror — Your email hack for better productivity]( [▲ 303+]( [Keyvault K1 — Your ultimate key fob: secure access management, and more]( [▲ 214+]( [Builder's Bid Book — Tinder for construction]( [▲ 183+]( [Meta AI Studio — Create and chat with AI in Instagram, Messenger & WhatsApp]( [▲ 169+]( [GitHub Models — GitHub's answer to Hugging Face]( [▲ 168+]( [YT Unsubscriber — Unsubscribe all your YouTube subscriptions with one click]( [▲ 144+]( [Discover many more]( PRODUCTS WE LOVED DEVELOPER TOOLS [Frontend AI]( generates your front-end UI code with the help of UI.
