🤖 New Image Model Drops
PLUS: Behind the Curtain: A white-collar bloodbath

Happy Monday!
This week in the world of AI was about as exciting as watching paint dry, but hey, we did get a new image model from the mysterious wizards over at Black Forest Labs. In other news, I couldn't resist jumping on the viral AI baby bandwagon. Picture this: baby sharks from Shark Tank, bickering over a deal. It's comedy gold, I tell you! Check it out below. Oh, and I found this gem of a prompt to share with you:
PROMPT: I want you to act as a process improvement expert and systems thinker. I’m currently facing the following recurring problem: [describe the issue in detail with background context]. Assist me in conducting a Root Cause Analysis to understand and resolve this issue at the source. Start by helping me clearly define the problem — include when, where, and how often it occurs. Guide me in gathering the relevant data or patterns around this issue. Then, use diagnostic frameworks (like the 5 Whys, Fishbone Diagram (Ishikawa), or Pareto Principle) to explore possible contributing factors. Once we identify the most likely root cause(s), recommend practical, realistic solutions to address it — both immediate fixes and long-term preventive strategies. Bonus: Share an example from a similar situation or industry to show how the same method worked elsewhere.
Enjoy!
