Grammarly Gets Serious Chops As Writing Tool

Best known as a proofreading and editing solution, Grammarly has repositioned itself as a full-fledged AI writer.

Essentially, the tool has been significantly expanded with a new document editor designed to nurture an idea into a full-blown article, blog post, report and similar – with the help of a number of AI agents.

Dubbed Grammarly ‘Docs,’ the AI writer promises to amplify your idea every step of the way – without stepping on your unique voice.

In other news and analysis on AI writing:

*Now You can Auto-Write Your Gmails Inside ChatGPT: AI expert Matt Paiva has figured-out a way to use ChatGPT to auto-write emails for Gmail – without ever leaving the ChatGPT interface.

An incredible time-saver, Paiva’s method is detailed step-by-step in this YouTube video, which capitalizes on ChatGPT’s new ability to make direct connections with a number of outside apps now.

One caveat: If you’re a novice, you may want to play this fast-paced tutorial a few times to get what’s going on – but even so, the juice is worth the squeeze.

*AI Agent-Driven Email Arrives: 6sense has released a new email marketing suite that uses AI agents to drive the email marketing process.

The idea: Use AI agents to write all the marketing emails, send and follow-up, read/analyze replies, respond accordingly – and then route hot leads to sales reps as soon as those manifest.

While such automation has been around for a while, it will be interesting to see if 6sense’s decision to ‘agentify’ the process brings significant new gains.

*Discount Version of ChatGPT Released in India: Fans of ChatGPT in India now have a tier level they can call their own – dubbed ChatGPT Go – that costs less than $US5 / month.

Essentially, subscribers get 10 times more message and image generating capability with Go as compared to ChatGPT Free.

ChatGPT’s maker is experimenting with the discount version in India only, with an eye towards offering the new tier in other countries if it makes sense.

*AI Writing Comes to WhatsApp: Users of the wildly popular WhatsApp now have a new AI writer.

Dubbed ‘Writing Help,’ the new tool is designed to help users draft error-free messages so they can respond even more quickly to family, friends and colleagues.

Writing Help also offers users the ability to send messages in various styles, including professional, funny or supportive.

*Top Ten AI Reworders: Technically, AI chatbots/writers like ChatGPT already have the ability to reword your text in all sorts of ways.

You simply need to describe the kind of writing you’re looking for (such witty, button-downed, ‘out there,’ etc.) ask ChatGPT to rewrite in that style and you’re done.

Even so, there are tools specially designed to reword your text — and writer Alicia Keller offers an excellent rundown on what’s available.

*Google’s Upgraded AI Image Generator Turning Heads: Google is out with a new version of its image generator with an exceedingly powerful new feature: The ability to faithfully replicate a person’s face/body, no matter how many times you edit that image.

The capability is perfect for someone who is trying to touch-up their headshot, for example, and wants to experiment with all sorts of effects while ensuring that their image an exact replica of who they are.

Until now, AI image generators were never able to stay true to the image of a person and instead churned-out images that only “sorta, kinda” looked like the person in the original image the generator was working with.

*Time Magazine Releases Its Top 100 People in AI: Time has released its own take on the top movers and shakers in AI, dubbed “TIME100 AI.”

Many of the names AI insiders would expect are on there.

But there are a few surprises, including Pope Leo XIV.

*ChatGPT Voice Tech Gets a Polish: Users who prefer interacting with AI via voice should ultimately be more pleased with that mode in months to come.

The reason: ChatGPT’s maker has introduced an upgrade to the underlying technology and released it to software developers.

In a perfect world, that will mean more AI apps coming down the pipeline that work with voice even better than they do now.

*AI BIG PICTURE: Stanford University Study: AI Making It Tougher for Young People to Find Jobs: Turns-out all those dire warnings about AI vacuuming up jobs are becoming reality.

A new study from Stanford finds AI is taking entry level jobs from young people, 22-25 – especially those looking to work in software engineering or customer service.

Observes writer Nick Lichtenberg: “The analysis revealed a 13% relative decline in employment for early-career workers in the most AI-exposed jobs since the widespread adoption of generative-AI tools.”

New AI model predicts which genetic mutations truly drive disease

Scientists at Mount Sinai have created an artificial intelligence system that can predict how likely rare genetic mutations are to actually cause disease. By combining machine learning with millions of electronic health records and routine lab tests like cholesterol or kidney function, the system produces "ML penetrance" scores that place genetic risk on a spectrum rather than a simple yes/no. Some variants once thought dangerous showed little real-world impact, while others previously labeled uncertain revealed strong disease links.

Developing self-deploying material for next-gen robotics

The field of robotics has transformed drastically in this century, with a special focus on soft robotics. In this context, origami-inspired deployable structures with compact storage and efficient deployment features have gained prominence in aerospace, architecture, and medical fields.

Unusual microbug anatomy shown to optimize wing weight—findings could benefit tiny drone design

Skoltech and MSU scientists have uncovered the advantage gained by microscopic bugs from their feather-like wings that are unlike those of dragonflies, bees, mosquitoes and other familiar insects. A wing largely made up of bristles that stand somewhat apart from each other is lighter than the conventional membranous wing that comes in one piece.

Robot regret: New research helps robots make safer decisions around humans

Imagine for a moment that you're in an auto factory. A robot and a human are working next to each other on the production line. The robot is busy rapidly assembling car doors while the human runs quality control, inspecting the doors for damage and making sure they come together as they should.

Warehouse automation hasn’t made workers safer—it’s just reshuffled the risk, say researchers

Rapid advancements in robotics are changing the face of the world's warehouses, as dangerous and physically taxing tasks are being reassigned en masse from humans to machines. Automation and digitization are nothing new in the logistics sector, or any sector heavily reliant on manual labor. Bosses prize automation because it can bring up to two- to four-fold gains in productivity. But workers can also benefit from the putative improvements in safety that come from shifting dangerous tasks onto non-human shoulders.

Caltech breakthrough makes quantum memory last 30 times longer

While superconducting qubits are great at fast calculations, they struggle to store information for long periods. A team at Caltech has now developed a clever solution: converting quantum information into sound waves. By using a tiny device that acts like a miniature tuning fork, the researchers were able to extend quantum memory lifetimes up to 30 times longer than before. This breakthrough could pave the way toward practical, scalable quantum computers that can both compute and remember.

Smarter navigation: AI helps robots stay on track without a map

Navigating without a map is a difficult task for robots, especially when they can't reliably determine where they are. A new AI-powered solution helps robots overcome this challenge by training them to make movement decisions that also protect their ability to localize. Instead of blindly heading toward a target, the robot evaluates the visual richness of its surroundings and favors routes where it's less likely to get "lost."

Starfish-inspired tube feet could help underwater robots get a grip

Soft robotics, which uses flexible and deformable materials, is an emerging field in autonomous systems. It has recently been applied to next-generation tasks such as deep-sea sampling with soft robotic grippers—requiring strong adhesion and autonomous detachment. Bioinspired adhesion offers a promising solution.
