Hey ,

Depending on where you are when you're reading this, you're probably experiencing or have experienced a change in the weather.

If you're in the UK like me, you know it's officially the beginning of summer and to be honest, it does feel like it, especially today - with the sun shining brightly in London.🌞

Hopefully that's an indication for what's to come in the next few months? Sunny skies = a promising year? I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Here's what we'll be covering today:

Inside Amazon's Innovation: Using AI to Ensure Quality and Sustainability

Amazon recently announced "Project P.I." an AI model to detect defects in products before shipping them to customers.

By combining generative AI and computer vision, Project P.I. identifies issues like damaged items or incorrect sizes, aiding in preventing imperfect products from reaching customers.

This proactive approach not only enhances the customer experience but also aligns with Amazon's sustainability goals by reducing returns and minimizing carbon emissions associated with transportation and packaging.

3D Product videos without a fancy studio!

I'm happy to have found this tool but sad because they haven't developed an Android version yet (I've been told it is in the works).

If you're someone who takes product pictures regularly or someone who sells used items on sites like eBay, Vinted etc. you're going to love this tool.

With Doly, you can switch some average footage to mind-blowing 3D videos using their tech and guidelines. All you need is an iPhone (support starts from iPhone 11 and newer)

Generative AI for sounds (not voice, not music but sounds!)

If you're a content creator who's tired of paying big money to subscribe to stock music and sound effects websites, you're going to love this.

Eleven Labs, the pioneers in speech to text tech has launched a new "Text to Sound Effects" feature that lets you create sound effects by entering a prompt.

Want to smash the earth with asteroids to de-stress?

If you ever get bored at work and want to unwind or if you're having a stressed day and need to get your mind off work for a bit, how about picking a spot on the globe, choosing the size of a rock and smashing it into your selected place?

Bizarre I know, but if you're old enough to have played the stress reliever game in the early 2000s where you virtually punched your boss in the face on your computer to de-stress, you know how therapeutic this can be. The only difference is, in this case, instead of smashing your boss, you're smashing the world!

After you've picked your location, you can pick the diameter of your asteroid, the speed and even the impact angle.
