What's in your AI stack?
A look at the big tech firms costs, OpenAI's pubilshing deal, and a Heyday teaser for teams.
We’re back with another edition of Machine Learnings, brought to you by the folks at Heyday.
Heyday is an AI copilot that transforms your documents, notes, and conversations into quotes, shareable content, and a queryable database.
If you log into Heyday today, you may just find an Easter Egg. A big one. Even larger than what your most generous family member would add inside that pastel plastic egg.
We’ll show it to you live this week, but go see if you can find it in the meantime, and share with a friend.
If you’re spending time gathering resources to do your work, stop. Try Heyday as your work copilot free for the next two weeks. You deserve a helping hand.
Programming note — We’ll be off the next two weeks for team travel and family time. Machine Learnings will be back on June 23.
