🥟 Chao-Down #21: Linkin Park releases AI-generated music video "Lost", Estimating the Cost of AI Search

Plus, LangChain receives seed funding from Benchmark

I typically spend the Monday after the Super Bowl re-watching a few of the best ads and seeing which ones if any are trending. With literally millions on the line for just seconds worth of screentime, running a Super Bowl ad is a high stakes game for the world’s attention.

Some have tried to see if AI could write Super Bowl commercials, but those efforts end up sounding too generic to be interesting. Maybe this is the area that we still have creative control over our AI counterparts.

Touchdown scored for humanity.
