📉 ChatGPT reduced Freelance Coding Jobs by 21%

Via Harvard Business Review, the introduction of ChatGPT and image-generating tools led to nearly immediate decreases in posts for online gig workers across job types, particularly for “automation-prone jobs” by 21%. ChatGPT is also increasingly becoming a mandatory skill, especially in software development.

Insights for you:

• A new study found a 20.62% decline in the software, app, and web development-related gigs for freelancers, after ChatGPT.

• Additionally, they noticed that over time, there were no signs of demand rebounding, revealing a growing trend of job replacement.

• The study examined 1.4 million job listings on a major freelance platform between July 2021 and July 2023.

😃 Apple is making “LLM Siri“ to compete with ChatGPT

According to Bloomberg, Apple’s new version of Siri will employ more advanced large language models (LLMs) to allow users to have long back-and-forth conversations with the virtual assistant.

Insights for you:

• Apple plans to build an AI chatbot called LLM Siri, which will be an enhanced version of SIRI.

• Sources also claim that “LLM Siri,” as Apple employees have dubbed it, will be capable of handling more sophisticated requests even faster.

• The new Siri update is expected to be available to consumers by early spring 2026.

Brave
🦁 Brave Search adds AI chat mode for smarter follow-up queries

Earlier this year, the company launched “Answer with AI” summaries that appear above search results after you submit a query to give you an easy-to-read answer in response to a question. Now the Answer with AI summaries include a chat bar that lets you ask follow-up questions regarding your initial query.

Insights for you:

• Brave announced that it is improving its search service with a new AI-powered chat mode. This feature lets users ask follow-up questions based on their initial search.

• Brave says this new experience is powered by a combination of open and internal LLMs, and eliminates the need for users to choose between chat-first or search-first tools.

• The new chat feature has all the same privacy protections as Brave Search and its Answer with AI feature.

AI Future
💡 llms.txt could fundamentally change how LLMs read online content

A newly proposed web standard called "llms.txt" could change how AI systems find and process information online. AI veteran Jeremy Howard suggests websites should include this special file that helps language models access content more effectively.

Insights for you:

• A new web standard called "llms.txt" has been proposed to help language models access relevant information from websites more efficiently.

• The llms.txt file would serve as a central guide for AI systems, summarizing the most important content of a website in a structured format, as AI requires information in a more precise and compact form than humans.

• The proposed standard is designed to complement existing web standards such as sitemaps and robots.txt.
