 Highlights This Week

➡️ Google Unveils Gemma 3: Google has released Gemma 3, an open-weight AI model supporting over 140 languages and capable of processing both text and images. ​

➡️ OpenAI's Enhanced Audio Models: OpenAI has launched advanced speech-to-text and text-to-speech models, offering more accurate transcriptions and human-like voice generation.

➡️ Anthropic's Claude Now Web-Enabled: Anthropic's AI assistant, Claude, can now access and synthesize real-time internet information, enhancing its ability to provide up-to-date responses.​

1. HOT THIS WEEK

Google has launched Gemma 3, its latest suite of open-weight AI models designed to democratize access to cutting-edge AI technology. The new family includes variants at 1B, 4B, 12B, and 27B parameter sizes, offering impressive performance that rivals much larger proprietary models while maintaining efficiency on consumer hardware. Built on the same research foundation as Google's Gemini models, Gemma 3 comes with responsible AI tooling and clear usage guidelines to foster safer implementation across diverse applications. 

OpenAI has significantly upgraded its Whisper and Text-to-Speech AI models, bringing enhanced transcription capabilities and more natural-sounding voices to its suite of tools. The improved Whisper model now offers more accurate transcriptions across over 60 languages, while the new TTS models deliver voice generation nearly indistinguishable from human speech. These advancements include expanded voice customization options and reduced latency, making the technology more accessible for developers building voice-enabled applications.

Anthropic has equipped its AI assistant Claude with web search capabilities, allowing it to retrieve and synthesize real-time information from across the internet. The upgrade enables Claude to access up-to-date information beyond its training data, answer queries about current events, and provide more accurate responses with source citations. This significant enhancement positions Claude as a formidable competitor to other AI assistants while maintaining Anthropic's emphasis on helpful, harmless, and honest AI interactions.

3. 💡 BRIGHTCONE SPOTLIGHT

Over the past six months, we’ve worked with one of the largest transportation organisations in the public sector to create a fully automated internal help desk with a smooth chatbot and voice assistant running on-prem. At the same time, we’re excited about open-source LLMs like DeepSeek (similar to Meta’s LLaMa), which you can download and run locally without outside snooping.

If you want custom AI tailored to your business built, fine-tuned, and hosted on your servers, Brightcone can make it happen. The best of both worlds is privacy and flexibility with powerful, next-generation technology. Contact Us through [email protected]
